Les's parents came to town and they had a slew of wonderful gifts for everyone

My first new ladder! Thanks Dad (Les's dad)!


Look closely, I think the girls might have something on their nose, but I'm not sure. For the most part, all the pictures I put on this blog will enlarge when you click on them.

Elijah had a better plan for the bags

As my wife's husband, I sometimes find it necessary to tell my wife to take a hike. Yup, it is true and here is an example. Les just seemed to need a little quiet time - she wasn't getting quietness at home. Sensing this need, while she stood there in laughter & astonishment, I dropped on her the things she needed to survive on her own for a few hours. When she came back, she seemed quite thankful for her "away time". I love my wife!

Yes, Elijah got a switch and a box of coal in his stocking. Actually, the coal was very yummy. Oh, we did give him a few other little gifts that would have gone in the stocking if there was room.
