This Afternoon There Were Five Boys Playing in Our Backyard

Cousin Emerson isn't doing so well all the sudden. The doctor did a home visit and said he is stable. I was about to head over to see their family. Instead Grandma Spiehs called me and said, "Can I bring over two little boys and stay there to?" I said, "Of course!"

Nephew Elijah, Nephew Evan, Mica and Isaak got to play. It's good because Mica used to play with Evan all the time, but now doesn't get a chance to. Then Jack from next door came over to. They ran up and down our hill, they played that their swing set was a spaceship and then I got them all snacks.

In the first image Mica is blasting off, out of the pretend space ship. In the second image, Evan and Mica were pretending that I was an alien about to attack them. They were shooting me. So much for not aiming a gun at someone. I used to be a mom that said, "I'll never buy guns for my boys!" When I saw them turn anything into weapons, I changed my mind. Plus Nerf guns and pop guns are so much fun! Boys will be boys.

I sure hope Cousin Emerson does ok. He had a really great month last month. He's such a sweet baby! I just got his Christmas present in the mail yesterday. I won part of it from For Your Bug a Boo from the site Mom Spotted! I really love both things and think Aunt Terra will to. It seemed like a perfect gift for baby Emerson! Get better baby!!!
