We had great weekend. Al cooked us breakfast on Saturday. He does this every Saturday. It is not just cereal and pop-tarts. Al makes a big breakfast - sausage, biscuits, and grits. On occasion he will even make gravy. Thank you Al! Your the best Dad and husband.
We did a little shopping and went out to eat lunch on Saturday. Then Saturday night, Ben showed how he can climb up an open doorway. Maybe this is something most kids do. His older brother, Will could not do it. Ben is so proud of his new talent. We may have to start the Blanton Family Olympics and this will be where Ben gets a medal. On Saturday we also played this kids charades game. Al had to act like a pig and I had to act out fainting. It was very funny. I highly recommend this board game. It was at Big Lots for only $9.
We got a little snow last night and today. Ben and Jack made me laugh as I watched them outside in the dusting of snow. They were playing with a neighbor and they had sleds. Our neighbor was pulling Ben in the sled. They have had lots of fun.
That's a cool trick! I don't want my kids seeing anyone do that because they would be trying it at every door!
ReplyDeleteAnd a husband that cooks is a good husband!
Wow! I've never seen anyone do that!
ReplyDeleteThanks for inviting me in!
Yeah, Evden is blogging!!!
ReplyDeleteBen SHOULD be proud of himself. Especially if he's beat his big brother to it:)
Yummy!Ask Al if he we can eat too on Saturday. I mean whats 5 more mouths to feed, right?
Al says been has double jointed feet and elbows. I don't think I have this gift. Of course there is no way I am going to try and see if I can climb the doorway. If mom breaks a leg it would get chaotic around here. Thanks for the comments!
ReplyDeleteI love Ben's elation over his feat! It reminds me of his expression in the picture when he is on top of the giant state gravel pile behind our field.
ReplyDeleteFrom the one who taught Al how to make sausage gravy.
I am so excited you have a blog. I love reading my friend's blog's.
ReplyDeleteGreat job, Ben. But please do not show Colton, my house will never be the same if my boys start climbing the door frames.
I guess I can allow door climbing with wood trim. That is one advantage to it. Wood shows little dirt or finger/foot prints.
