While Blake's Away...

...we definitely play. Except it was kind of rainy outside. So our choice outing was to Barnes and Nobel to play with the train table and read books. Twice. I think they're starting to recognize us now--"Oh great--here comes the lady who never buys anything and her two rowdy kids to make a mess of our store." Yes, that's right. Thank you, thank you Barnes and Nobel for providing me some sanity.We ate all our meals picnic style, usually accompanied by a movie.And Max was kind enough to help me clean his bathroom with hand soap in preparation for Blake's big return.
Although we obviously had a good time, we missed our weekend with Blake. I'm sure Minnesota was nice, but I'm also sure San Francisco is nicer. Please don't leave us again, Blake.

Even though there are good places to visit, there is NO PLACE like HOME!
Great fun, Cleaning, and Picnics! I'll not forget to mention the GREAT FAMILY that lives there! How do you always come up with such creative things?

Barnes and Noble should be proud that you'd want to bring the boys there!
