Busy Busy Busy!

 

Today Evan was helping Eric clean out the garbage can.  He looks so tall standing on the step ladder.  Our garbage can smelled really bad and their were raccoon footprints on the top.  If our can is outside we have to secure the lid with a bungee cord or the raccoons will get inside and make a mess.

Today was the first day of fall and the boys wanted to eat their lunch on the front step.  Eric brought their table out front, so they could eat.

This week they poured concrete on our curb and apron in front of our house, so we can't pull into the garage.  The boys wanted to set up this train that my parents had given to them.  They had fun watching it go round and round.  The engine has a place to put liquid, so the engine will smoke.  The boys thought that was pretty cool. 

Evan and Alex enjoyed climbing on this new piece of playground equipment.  Evan can get all the way to the top! 

 A couple weeks ago we went on the Minnehaha Steamship.  Alex does not look very happy in this picture, but he did enjoy the ride(just not the picture).

Alex enjoyed looking out the window as we headed back to Wayzata.

The other night Evan was in a cleaning mood.  He first swiffered the floor and then wanted to mop.  He was keeping very busy!

Alex had All About Me week a couple weeks ago and filled out this questionnaire. 

Last weekend Eric and I participated in a chili cook-off out at the island.  We didn't win, but people liked our chili.  We may try again next year. 

Alex thought this bucket would make a good hat!

Last weekend the boys got invited to our friend Lexi's birthday party at Pump It Up.  The boys had a Blast jumping and going down slides.

On Thursday nights the boys are doing gymnastics.  They really enjoy it!

A couple weeks ago we went to the parade in Wayzata.  Westies were dressed up as Robin Hood this year.  They were so cute!

Beads look good around your ears Evan!

A train roared by as the parade went on and the boys went over to check it out!

Last parade of the summer and it was a beautiful day!

I was so happy to see this cement truck doing our curb and driveway apron.  One step closer to having asphalt on our street again.  I'm tired of the dirt and dust.

With the cars stuck out in the street Evan decided he wanted to mop the garage floor.  Nice job!

Notice the froggy boots!

Last weekend Gay and Bob took the kids and she borrowed her friends jumpy house for the kids.  They had a great time jumping!  Thanks Kori for letting the kids jump!
