Day Four:As boys grow older their desire to sleep in increases ten fold! A few extra minutes of sleep is a nice reward on a day off.
We began our adventures today by meeting with dad for lunch. The Red Robin restaurant was yummy!
We decided to adventure to another home we hadn't toured before. We enjoyed the home and grounds of Edsel and Eleanor Ford. (They do not allow photos inside the home so the 1st beautiful picture you see above is courtesy of Balthazar Korab and Dirk Bakker).
The house pictured above was given to the daughter of the estate for her 7th birthday. It is a miniature home where she learned social graces and played. If this mini home were built in today's times it would of cost around $300,000 thousand.
Today it began snowing again. We had no idea it was coming in the quantity it arrived. They say we may get another 2 or 3 inches. I love the 4 seasons we have here but I am officially ready for Spring to show up and stay a while.
Tonight we took time to stretch out, relax, and then my son and I drew. My son loves drawing ships. Some how they always end up having a great battle. From the time he 1st picked up a pencil he has drawn pirate ships and pirates. I can't seem to toss any of them. They are drawn on napkins, place mats, on the back of church attendance cards, and so on. Some day I think I'll frame a series of them.

We are going to watch a movie as a family now so enjoy your evening!

Luke, if you have ANY free time would you draw Parker a picture of a pirate ship? I promise you it would be hung up, adored and talked about for days.. maybe weeks!!!! He LOVES LOVES pirates but there aren't too many age appropriate pirate things out there...Parker was thrilled when the Veggie Tales Pirates movie came out:) We would love a LUKE original~
Your weeks looks like soooo much fun and educational to boot!
Sorry you got more snow. I really really feel for you guys. Spring break is NO time for snow!
love you and miss you!!!!
Tam, you do an awesome job as a mom. The memories Luke will have someday of his youth will be unbelievably secure, loving and memorable!
