The night before we left, Chris was doing a little, mmm, home improvement shall we say. Basically, he was trying to install a tivo, which led him to move the bed to plug it in, which led to the wood in the frame of our bed splitting, which led to much anger and frustration on Chris' part, but excitement and awe for one little boy!
Chris let Ryan "help" and actually showed him how to push the automatic screw driver button for it to go. He was in hog-heaven. It was precious to see my boys working on a project together! After that, Chris showed him the manual screw driver, thought that would be a safer thing long term. :) He loved both.
(side note, could he be any cuter??)

Well, we are back from Greenville! We had such a fun time! The highlight for Ryan was when Adam and Lydia's Nana and Papa pulled out swords. I'm telling you, it's instinctive in little boys. He'd never "played swords" before. He was handed one, Adam had one, and he was swinging it back and forth, hitting Adam's sword instantly. It was unbelievable (anyone reminded of another little boy a long time ago?).
We spent a lot of time at the pool, (zero entry is a favorite for my kids!) took walks, played with toys, Leigh-Ann and I went out at night and my kids just
L-O-V-E-D Nana and Papa!!
Playing in the pool out back:
Anna-Kate and Adam...or should I say Peter Pan and Wendy? :) They played that all weekend and kept hiding the "treasure" for the other to find.The sword was a part of about 95% of all play...

ahh- you can't get tivo.....that means that's ONE more person we know with it- and although matt would get it in a heart beat, i'm trying to hold off b/c it'd just be one more thing to make monthly payments on!!!!!! but o how nice it would be :)
Oh, yes! It way reminded me of another little boy. I found one of his old swords under my couch after he passed (where he had doubtless hidden it from Matt) and cried all day! Ryan is SOOOOO cute! Does he have a Matthew yet?
If you can find one on ebay or craigs list you can buy the old ones which don't have monthly plans
