Fun!

Last night Jason took Meggan to the church for choir practice, so it was Jordan and me home to hang out for a while! I finished up loading the dishes while he played with his trains for a while (what else?) and then I asked him if he wanted to go see the ducks (pronounced duh if you know Jordan) and feed them some bread. Of course, he nodded (just about the only way he answers in the affirmative, unless you really press him to say yes and he will finally mutter what sounds like yeah). Off we went to the pond in our neighborhood and proceeded to give the ducks a couple hotdog buns we had that were ready to be eaten. It was a lot of fun, and he loved it! He has been talking about the ducks every time we drive by the pond for a couple weeks now, so this was a big deal to him.

Tonight Jason went to dinner and for some bowling with the branch staff, and so it was just the kids and I hanging out at home. Since it has been raining here ALL DAY, we were stuck with indoor stuff. That's fine too, but I know Meggan was bummed that we couldn't go feed the ducks while she could go... We finished a couple homework activities that Meggan had left to do and then they were writing & "coloring" & building with blocks & playing on the computer (Starfall is a GREAT educational site if you're looking for one). It was nice and relaxing ... and fun!

Here are a few pictures from the last couple days of fun!!!



Jordan "coloring" on one of Meggan's starfall.com printouts!


If you're ever looking for Meggan, she is probably at the computer on starfall.com! She can't get enough of this site! They do it at school too during computer lab and such, so she's practically got it memorized, I think... :)
Jordan pointing as the ducks made their way over (they were all the way across the pond until they saw us over there)!
The ducks actually came pretty darn close to us! There was even a couple times when one of them was at the very edge (to the side of us, not directly in front of us) and standing on land walking!
Waving bye-bye to the ducks!
Hope everyone is having a great week!
