Colin's 8th Bday & Just Life

On Colin's birthday he wanted three things. He wanted ffried dough for breakfast, steamed artichoke for lunch, and crab legs for dinner.  And that's what he got. Had a great day despite a sprained ankle. He has enjoyed his caramel apple suckers that he got from grandma for his birthday along with some TLC in the wheelchair. He said something that was very touching as they headed home from dinner that night. He told Jeff that money was the best thing in the world. Jeff said he wasn't sure if that was true.  But Colin said oh yes dad it is. You can buy children like Claudy. And you can buy Bibles.  Pretty good for an eight-year-old.  While Brandon was away on his mission trip, Colin and Alexa enjoyed their many sleepovers.

Other things we have been doing are…

Lots of drawings by Analiese, a replaced faucet, keeping up with chores (Alexa does an amazing job), and trying to enjoy everything summer!
