Happy St. Patrick's Day (2006)

The boys had a busy St. Patty's Day.


Luke had a blast being a Leprechaun for the day.


After a bit too much green beer & corned beef, Ox enjoyed playing "peek-a-boo" with his mask.


The boys got their awesome masks from their friends at the Matrix nursing home. They love spending time there with Beth and the rest of the gang.

Let the Work Begin...

Today we broke ground on our new home.


Owen & Luke wasted no time. They jumped right in the truck and were ready to get to work.


Here's a pic of the land (& our fire hydrant) before the boys got busy.


And here's Luke & Owen hard at work. Stay tuned...

When It Rains...

Editor's Note: We were on hiatus this past week since Aunt Di Di was out of town and unable to check the website. Now that she is back, so are we. Welcome back Di Di!

Today we thought we would take a trip to the Hueston Wood's State Park for their annual Maple Syrup festival.


I guess Mother Nature had other plans.


After a week of pretty much constant rain, we are now contemplating building an arc instead of a house.


The boys decided to make the best of their time, so they took a nice snooze.

Kakky, Kakky, Kakky & Brad

The boys had a blast playing with Aunt Kakky and Uncle Brad this week. That's all they've talked about since they left.


Playing outside in February, at night?! What a life, eh?


Their entertaining Aunt Kakky taught the boys many new games like ring-around-the-rosy. Believe it or not, they'd never played.


While Uncle Brad showed the boys the latest building techniques.

The boys proved to be quick learners, building towers of unimaginable heights.


Aunt Kakky even found time to potty train the boys.


Luke even went a trickle!
