Since you've been gone...

Tim,

Since you're gone, busy putting every other construction school to shame, we thought we'd keep you up to date with the goings-on at the Blood house.

James got a new bib.  I know he just got new bibs, but look at it!  It is too cute.  How could I resist?  And besides, James loves it.

Matthew has decided to become an artist.  He spends his days painting and sculpting (play-doh).  He loves the colors.  I know because he tells me over and over and over and over and over and.......

And he loves to mix the colors.  Gulp, I had to use quite a bit of restraint.

James keeps busy under the desk, while I keep busy above the desk working, 

aka checking blogs and the latest on Britney news.  Can we adopt her?  I think she may be house-broken.

We love you so much and miss you, too.  Work hard and good luck!

Gingerbread Houses...

For FHE we decorated a gingerbread house. We gave Matthew total design control of the house. He did a really good job. The boys had lots of fun with it. Can you tell what Matthew's favorite part was? Candy!

Lights. Camera. Action. Take Three!

Matthew wanted me to get some video of him while painting. He is such a mini-director. This is the third take and he tried to get me to do more because he wasn't pleased with any of my shots. I'm sure he would have done it himself if he could have. You just can't find any good help anymore.
