Random Idaho Happenings

What would we have done without the magic kit?  It entertained 7 munchkins for hours and hours
and gave them an opportunity to develop showmanship.
Thanks, Jamie!
 For Kevin, "vacation" means catching up on projects at his mom's house.  She's
84 years old and getting closer to the day when she'll no longer be able
to take care of the farm.  For a couple of days Kevin's brother was there as well, and
then!  Did the projects ever start to fly.  There's nothing better than a couple
of engineers doing plumbing.
 It was just a temporary hold while they ran to the hardware store for a different fitting. 
For me, being in America means shopping at Walmart, Target, Kohl's, and so on.
For Kevin, it means getting to go to the hardware store. 
And he loves having a project to do.
 And more projects for the kids.  I was amazed at how long they could entertain
themselves with drawing, coloring and cutting. 
With a few games of Bocce thrown in so everyone could relax a bit.  

Vacation time was so helpful in getting A & E together with their siblings.
