Sunday Mornings

Our Sundays are a lot more relaxed since we are now on the afternoon, 1:00 schedule. We love it. Finally a day to sleep in. Let me preface this. My love was raised a farm boy and does not believe in sleeping in. He would rather get up early & take a nap in the afternoon (if he needs one) than burn daylight. This particular Sunday Bruce was under the weather so he stay in bed which allowed the rest of the house to sleep in until 8:30 which is unheard of in our house. My kids are just like their Dad and get up most mornings around 6am. On weekends they are usually out of bed by 6:30 or 7 at the latest. That is without the help of an alarm clock. I use to love sleeping in but after 18 years of marriage I am beginning to appreciate the beauty of early mornings.

This last Sunday, since we had more time then we knew what to do with, Parker made us hot cinnamon rolls. He had a little help from Mrs. Rhodes. They tasted delicious! (Note: Parker just loves posing for pictures.)

I love this new found extra time on the Sabbath.
Note: He even waited until the very end to lick the spoon..good job!

Saturdays Project

We had a total of 8 eight regular doors to hang or I should say, Stanley (Bruce's cousin) did. Bruce watched,assisted and learned much. Bruce loves learning the skill of carpentry. He can use it when we build our next home...I don't think so. Carpentry is a great skill to know but we are not building any time soon. Maybe storage shelves but that's about it. These are the bedroom doors - The closet doors in the girls rooms
