Great Weekend

Friday saw me raking up the cut grass in the backyard. Brandon insisted on helping me and did a great job. He is very unhappy if he does not get to help Daddy.

Saturday was bag the raked grass day starting at 8:30 am. Then I cleaned inside(vacuum, mop, wipe down), went out for lunch with Brandon while my agent was showing the house and then we were off to see Iron Man (AWESOME).

Sunday was MUCH more relaxing. We played video games, practiced throwing and catching the football (once he realized he needs to NOT keep his left hand on the ball quite so long his throws were VERY good). We ran out so I could buy some stuff for my lawn mower. While he had lunch I replaced the bald, gave it an oil change, changed the air filter, and changed the spark plug. Runs TONS better now BUT I now suspect a fuel leak (strong gas odor in the garage and hint of moisture just under where the fuel line runs). Sigh. Still better than shelling out $300.00 for a new one. After that I mowed the front yard and then Brandon helped me plant the flowers he grew from seeds into pots that are now to either side of the front door.


We also did his science project with me on Sunday. All about making bubbles. I was VERY impressed with his concentration and he had a good feel for figuring out what to conclude from the results. He actually really got "cause and effect" and why it is good to only change ONE thing at a time in an experiment. I was very proud of him.

Same people from Saturday are looking at the house again today...keep your collective fingers crossed!
