You can see the smile from the back of his head! This is while he waits the WHOLE three and a half minutes for popcorn. Haha!

String, an arrowhead, a stick and some duct tape.

Andy made a spear.

Andy says, "Johnny, you're a clown!"

Good one!

Andy's first posting on Dad's Life

On the way home from shopping he said, "Dad, your the best dad in the world!". Right out of the blue... ;)


This picture is one he took. He got a better version of it than I did. Says maybe he's going to be a photographer.

Nice!

No hosta were harmed in the making of this picture

I managed to remove the 20 inch diameter, 60 foot tree that had blown over and landed on another in my in-laws yard. 40 year old tree.

Surgical precision was required. You're looking right down the trunk at the stump and root ball mostly on it's side.

Money is You, like sheep to the slaughter.

The boys got a post card box in the mail! Full of cookies.

Five minutes later, Andy knows how to pull a post (or a mean tire spike!)

Hopefully this ends my string of flat tires at my parents old house!?

Nothing like an inch long horse fly to go with the dog days of summer!

My work is done, now for some "fun".

Grape juice, coffee, cookies, trail mix and fruit. I'm stuffed!

Yum. Chicken, beans, potatoes and barbecue sauce.

So hot I can't hold onto it.

No better way to prop up an MRE for proper heating. ;)

I'm getting hungry for my lunch

Figured I better (taste) test these things out.  I figured they would be great for camping with the boys.  :)

I thought the boys would like this poster...

Last week we put out fires...

This week we learned how to start them. No matches or lighters! Survival fires.

Squid steaks and noodles. Yum!

Just watchin' TV...

We're having fun playing a card game. The extra fun part is that Johnny taught us how to play it. ;)

Yum! Scruffy's in Springoro

Cousin fun!

Apparently "pick your pose" is a new party game!?

It's 6:00...

...and there isn't a single child still asleep! Haha. I guess they're having fun?

Inside PART of the fort...!

Now THAT's a pillow fort!

If we told him to stand in the corner...

...he would think we were punishing him. Haha

3 of them are up. Johnny is faking.

Brutus dug Ian and Isaac out of their holes.

Now he is LOADED!

Ian and Isaac both claim to like squid. Ian says, they're actually worth eating. Haha

An entire living room of "pillow forts"!

"Ok Andy, tell me about ALL your issues" ;)

Good thing I brought minions!
