Rules to Fit

This weekend was filled with fun. Saturday we met up with Grayson's best friend Devin and his family for an outing to the zoo. It seems we always go together. I imagine the workers there think we are one big family. After a few hours at the zoo mom and dad got a couple quiet hours at home while Braxton napped and Grayson went to play at Devin's. My friends might get ideas when we say we had quiet time with no kids running around.... but...Quiet Time= finally sort through our latest quotes for new life insurance policies and decide if they meet our needs.  We've been married a while now my friends :-)

 


 
 
 


After we picked up Grayson, Dusty ordered a pizza and picked up the last of the Shrek series to watch. We even let the boys stay up a little late to watch the movie. Both passed out in no time once ready for bed :-)

And as expected with every "Fall Back" weekend... both boys were up before my clocks adjusted time read 7:30. Bummer. We ran a few errands today and Grayson talked us into some $1 wooden cars you put together. Nothing like a trip to Michaels to make you buy crafty stuff. So while mom cleaned and Braxton napped, Dad and Grayson put together some cars.

About the middle of this process Dad came in to tell me about Grayson's race. They were "racing" just the wheels they had put together. According to Dad, his wheels stopped a couple inches farther away than Grayson's. He informed Grayson he had lost. Grayson had a different opinion. He said they both won. 

He explained that they tied, because the fninsh line was in fact.... a diagonal! It ran from Dad's wheels to Grayson's wheels. Convenient Huh?

Always nice to adjust the rules of the game as you go.... wish it worked that way in every day life!!!!
