family fun days!
With so much to do on our "to do" list these days...who are we kidding, everyday...it is easy for the time to fly by when S is here. Filling our days with unpacking more boxes, painting the rest of the outdoor shutters and drilling holes in my counter top for the microwave cord is not my boys idea of fun with Daddy. So one thing we brought back with us from WI was to dedicate time, a day, an evening a weekend as family fun time. The days when we all agree not to so any work around the house, although I cheat once in awhile and throw a load of laundry in. Saturday was family fun day at our favorite beach. A gorgeous day full of building, and re-building, and scavenging for supplies for more building.
Zane built a great replica of the first Jamestown settlement complete with a pen for the horses and a moat. Did Jamestown really have a moat? I didn't think so, but ours did.
Ian built a shelter of sorts that we ended up leaving in tact as we left. He is hoping that another little boy will come along and add to it so that next time we can all fit in it. Which prompted a long discussion of the tides and how things was in and out.
Wyatt was in charge of scavenging the beach for supplies and was happy as a clam to push things into the sand.
And Daddy got to help with it all.
F is also for the fabric piles in my sewing room, fresh flowers that make me happy and for the friends and family we have been catching up with the past few days. F is for faith in all that is good. And finally F is also for ...falling behind on this meme.
