Family visit...

This weekend Jay and Cindy came to visit. I wasn't quite feeling the best so I laid low most of the weekend. But that didn't stop the boys from doing a bunch of yard work. Good bonding time for Jim and his dad. They covered some of the bare spots in the lawn with dirt and then seeded. Hilo had a blast playing in the pile of black dirt... every white spot was completely black and his entire face was covered in black dirt. Jim had to give him a good scrub that afternoon. Everytime we let him out for the rest of the weekend we had to wipe his feet down because he would inevitably get into it.

Cindy and I installed the carseat this weekend... that was a lot of work and it definitely wasn't right. So I scheduled an appointment with our Fire Department to get that figured out later this week. But we tried! We also took Hilo for a long walk. She did a lot of cooking while again, I got some extra sleep.

Saturday night Jim and I woke up to our neighbors house on fire. Yeah - scary. 3am sirens went off and our room was lit up like a football field. This is the neighbor directly behind us. They had the fire out in about 30 minutes but the firefighters were there till later that morning. We found out on Sunday that the fire started from his woodpile on the outside of his garage... they think it was lit by a tiki torch! Kinda scary.

Sunday Jim's parents left after breakfast and Jim and I lounged for the rest of the day.... total couch potatoes! We are taking advantage of it now that is forsure!
