Stars Game

Aidan is a Stars fanatic. He thoroughly enjoyed the game last night which may be the last one he gets to go to for the season. I think he is going to be pretty upset when he realizes the season is over.

The Playset is Finished

Here are some shots of the finished product and Aidan testing everything out. If anyone wants to come over and try it out, just give us a call.

Butterflies

Today Aidan & I went with some other moms from church to a butterfly exhibit that was set up in a mall. There was a big tent filled with flowers, butterflies and a bunch of kids trying to catch the butterflies with bits of cantaloupe. Aidan enjoyed it at first but when a butterfly snuck up on him unexpectedly he was ready to go.

The Playset

After getting approval from the Home Owners Group and a rigorous playset selection process, work was under way on Aidan's birthday gift. We were warned this is a big project and that was no exaggeration. Darren & Grandpa worked on it all afternoon Saturday & Sunday and there is still some work to be done.

Here are some work in progress pictures.

Grandpa Ohio in town

Grandpa Erskine was in town last week and taught Aidan the family art of making bread. Aidan was a little nervous to touch the dough at first but got into the kneading process. He definitely enjoyed the eating the part.

STARS!!

If you have ever been to a Stars game, you know that whenever the person singing the National Anthem says 'Stars' that the whole crowd shouts 'Stars' at the same time. Aidan has picked up on this but doesn't know the words to the National Anthem. He sings "Away...manger...no crib...no bed...STARS!!!"
