Here are pictures from our neighbors house across the street, Don and Mirinda Thompson. They’ve got a little boy, Michael, who is only 4 months younger than Brett. Michael’s house is the bomb, he’s got a fish pond, a moon bounce, an electric jeep, and his dad gives out tractor rides.

Jake was at a birthday party Sunday, and it was a cool time. Our neighbor Ethan had a fishing party for his birthday at Center Point Pond. It was neat because it’s the only time I’ve been to a child’s birthday party where every child’s father was in attendance. Usually it’s the mom’s [...]

The carpet was put down Wednesday, and the basement is finished, sort of. The workers are out of the house, but Jean and I still have a lot of stuff to unpack and set up downstairs. We’re trying to keep everything organized, but the kids have started to lay claim to the area [...]
