Breakfast with Andy, never a dull moment!

Only one more tooth stands between Andy and braces...!

My nephew wasn't very happy to discover this...

Luckily, our two brains worked out a path to recovery!

Andy's sending me pictures of his "best hand ever"

He says he won that round! ;)

We all enjoyed Johnny's first Yoyo competition

He placed 18 out of 21 in the finals, for the state. The crazy part is, he had to make up the second half of his routine on the fly, just before his performance. 

You can get a feel for it from these pictures:

All of a sudden the boys are making up dice games.

They even found my stock of chips we use for demos at work... In this game the dice mostly serve as currency. I love Andy's use of half a pool cue for the rake. Haha.

Nothing like euchre and doughnut holes!

We taught the boys to play, this past week. It was a close game, but we won!

Andy got to try a few new toys too.

I got a new bar code scanner for work, so the boys had to run around scanning everything in the house

Trouble is, these aren't bar codes!

One of these is not like the others...

Fun at Christopher's open house!

He graduated!

On the way home from Nashville, last night.

Really pretty, double rainbow. It was weird how the sky looked different under the first rainbow.

Slow-mo fire...!

We got rid of our burn pile this weekend, and chilled while we watched it. Good times.

Cousin fun this weekend. A little work, mostly play. ;)

Johnny was noticing how much shade coverage we have in our yard!

No And More...

Funny list of things you won't have if you use this product:

No dry skin
No rash
And most importantly, No "And More". Haha.

I don't think anything captures a week of VBS better than this... Johnny and Jasmine

You can see a few of the highlights here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/dwbarton/albums/72157666892382724

Sprinkled in are some shots of how Andy's trip, with his Grammy, is going so far. 

Johnny's in the big leagues now.

He graduated up to a full size handgun yesterday. He was a little tentative, but never missed a beat. Smoked both his parents on a dueling tree... By the end of the day he was confident and shooting better than a lot of the adults! Proud boy, proud papa. ;)

It lives!!!

Our local Radio Shack still has a section for electronic components. Was good to browse the aisles, once again!

A nice looking young man

I'm gonna hafta lock out the selfie cam if this keeps up! ;)

Too many David!

This was the lobby of an office building I visited, last week.

VBS 2016 kicks off!

Taco Bell breakfast selfie time...

Not my idea!

Call 911! Andy's Churro sustained an injury!

It looks like it might be a compound fracture. ;)

It's hard to believe Christopher is all on his own now!?

Just kidding, but he DID graduate!  You can see a few pictures here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/dwbarton/albums/72157666741242123

Stay tuned for his guitar and other performances on video...
