Visiting the Nursing Home

We visited the people at the nursing home this week

with our good firends the Williams family...

We sang songs in the music room, then we went room to room to visit those who couldn't get out of bed. I was SO blessed with the way the kids are so kind and compassionate toward these lonely people. Without being told to, JJ said to one lady "it's so good to see you today", and to another he said "oh! I love you hair!". Harry is a little shy...he said "JJ can give out the hugs...I'll pass out the cards". Eddie just 'goes with the flow' with whatever the other 2 are up to, but he sure loves the singing and clapping. I am SO blessed by and thankful for each one of them and their UNIQUE personalities!

'Big Boy' Bike!

I've been trying to teach JJ how to ride his 'big boy'

bike for months...Harry taught him in minutes!

Bedroom Surfing

Rich went surfing this morning...

then I overheard Harry say;

"hey JJ get your surfboard...we're going surfing!".

So, they decided to go "surfing" in Eddies empty room.

(We had moved the plastic slide into the room because of the storm. Their "surfboards" are cardboard blocks...CREATIVE!)

TACO NIGHT!

Every week we have

"TACO NIGHT"

(usually), with a few of our good friends!

Our famous 'Pico di gallo'

is QUITE popular!

Kristin was HIGHLY supervised by

me while she fried the tortillas...

we didn't want a kitchen fire in our

house like she Had in hers!

SWEET DREAMS!

The boys slept soundly right through

TROPICAL STORM FAY!!!!

Everyday FUN!
