A Day at Home ...

July 15, 2016

Today was a day to take it easy ...

just hanging around the house ... riding quads ...

and maybe getting some twigs for the fire pit ... using Opa's homemade trailer ...

Lunch time ... waiting for the coals to be ready for roasting hot dogs ...

Craig was playing with his RC car ... driving it up and down the slide ...

Enjoying our lunch ... sitting around the fire pit ...

roasting a few marshmallows for dessert ...

After lunch ... it was time to cut the lawn ...

Craig wanted to learn how to work the lawn tractor ...

so after a few rounds of teaching him how it works ...

he was on his way by himself ...

Craig did an awesome job of cutting the lawn ...

his was so eager to help out ...

From now on when Craig comes for a visit ... this will be one of his jobs ...

After a busy day of playing and doing odd jobs ...

it was time to sit back and relax ...

in the hot tub ...

Mike and I had brought back a few souvenirs from Austria ...

and this was our first chance to give it to them ... before they headed back home ...

A small beer stein for the boys and a glass globe for Ella ...

plus some chocolate and honey candy from the Bee Store ...

They loved it all ... !!!
