New Fire Pit

Building

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #00492

This past weekend I went and made a purchase from Lowe’s. I got us a new grill and a fire pit. They arrived today and Eva helped me build the Fire Pit. She loves helping assemble things with me and she is a great partner in that. She thinks about what needs to be done next and takes care of it. I can tell her what I need and she will find the tool or the piece of hardware. We put the whole thing together in time for a family bingo night.

Tonight we did family bingo with Allison’s side of the family. We sent pizza to Nate and Sarah. We got some pizza of our own, too. Mimi and Dano also got some pizza and then we all played Bird Bingo. We got the idea from my brother-in-law, Erik. He set up the Bird Bingo and pizza night that we had on my family’s side.

Eva likes April Fools Day, yet she doesn’t quite understand it. She’s tried out a few April fools jokes but well, she’ll eventually get it. She suggested that we do jokes on the way to school. She did not appreciate when I told her that it was school switch day. I tried to convince her that we were going to a different school. She did not like that at all. The joke was on us though because when we got to school we had completely forgotten her backpack.

For the afternoon I took Andrew over to Bass Pro Shops so that we could walk around. He enjoyed it and it got him out of the house. Walking all around the store was an adventure for him. He loved the turtles and watching the fishies. I look forward to more walks with him as the weather gets better.
