These are pictures from the video I keep trying to load. TJ made spider cookies in preschool with Oreos and pretzels and after telling me about it, we picked up the ingredients at the store and he showed Gage how to make them. They turned out pretty cute.

9 legged spider.

Gage mostly just liked licking the frosting out of the cookies.

Friday we made it down to see my BIL Steve graduate from the Police Academy. It was a nice, short ceremony and the boys were very impressed by all the people in uniform. We then went to the Olive Garden for lunch. The wait was an hour to seat all 14 of his family who attended. They left for the Training Table instead. Mom and I stayed and ate there, I didn't think they would mind...I had my heart set on some salad and breadsticks ya know?

I couldn't get TJ to come over for a picture and Gage was ornery...so this is as good as we got. Congrats again Steve!

TJ had his primary program on Sunday. They've been practicing for months and even has a 2 hour practice one afternoon last week. It is just amazing to see you children get older and be able to participate in such programs. He did great, sung his little heart out and even ignored the kid next to him who took off his tie and started hitting TJ with it. Oh and he even did the classic wave to the parents thing, made our day. You should have seen the smile on Josh's face.

"Treating others kindly" was TJ's speaking part in Sunday's program.

And finally some house pictures. Everything is just coming along so nicely. The roof sheeting is complete and Josh even put up a few windows.
