Pretty much it's been the same all week, with nowhere to go but the grocery
store, we've been home.
The boys like to stay up until all hours and so most mornings we don't see them until 1100 or so :) Then it's time for a late breakfast, I give them the choice of breakfast or lunch, they always pick breakfast. Bacon, (lots of bacon) LOL. Then it's either french toast or waffles or both. When they're here, I cook them whatever they want as we don't get to see them that often.
Later in the afternoon they go for a quad ride out to the BLM. Phones are with them in case there's a problem but they are safe and cautious drivers now that they're older.

| These don't look like the picture I made them from LOL..but they are chocolate covered strawberries deep fried in waffle dough..Mason had one, Aaron ate the rest..hahah. Guess they don't have to look good to taste good! Today we're trying deep fried ice cream.. |
The weather hasn't been great with lots of wind and chilly. Hoping for a warming day so we can go to BLM and do some shooting or the range.
 |
| Aaron getting ready to go..Ken's putting gas in Mason's |
 |
| Time to head out! |
 |
| Because of the wind, Ken has a moveable bar b q.. LOL |
 |
| Eric and family gave this cast iron cooker to Ken a few years ago.. Makes ONE HUGE burger!! Thanks guys! |
We had a night of ping pong championships which will need to continue. There's been movie watching in the evening. Aaron picked Joker yesterday at Red Box and another. After an hour or so, I went to bed. Ken stayed up and watched with them. :)
Anyway, that's about it. Taking it easy, some baking, and of course Ken finds himself plenty to do!
Have a great day!

| Loved our tent dresses! I remember we got these out at Denio's Auction or as daddy called it "Okie Farms"...most Saturdays we'd head out there just to see what they had! |
 |
| Out front of our house..modeling our dresses! haha. |
Wonderful times and great memories. I'll be by for breakfast tomorrow if you're going to serve those waffles again. Haha. I've never heard of deep fried strawberries nor had any deep fried ice cream but I like deep fried pickles. Stay safe and healthy.
ReplyDeleteYep those boys love the waffles! Waffles and lots of bacon! haha. They really liked the ice cream and I did a cheaters version, no deep frying..I'll share..
DeleteHope your weather gets better soon. Those two boys are sure typical teenagers. Keep you young or wear you to death. One or the other. Love the dress modeling:)) Don't know which one is you but they are all cute 😍
ReplyDeleteYou are so right Doug! I'm the oldest sister! :)
DeleteLooks like the boys are still keeping you busy while you isolate.
ReplyDeleteCute pictures from the past.
Be Safe and Enjoy having family nearby.
It's about time.
Yep they are too much fun to have!
DeleteCute pictures of you and your family. I would bet they bring back great memories. Sounds like those two grandsons are keeping you two busy spoiling them. It also sounds like you are loving it. I have had deep fried ice cream, it is Rachel's favorite, but I have never made it so I will be looking forward to how yours turns out. Take care. Hugs
ReplyDeleteThe boys loved it, I did a cheaters version..no deep frying involved! Yep we're enjoying the kids! Too soon they'll be going home :(
DeleteThat cast iron cooker, we call pie irons, put two pieces of bread and what ever you want in between, for example, pie filling. put in the camp fire to cook, very tasty. Stay safe and healthy.
ReplyDeleteYum that sounds yummy! will have to try..I bet smores would be delicious!
DeleteOh my gosh .... remember all those homemade Easter dresses? I hated putting a dress on ... I was a levis girl. That cast iron cooker? Grilled cheese sandwiches. How fun you are getting to spend so much time with the kids.
ReplyDeleteWe are definitely enjoying the grandsons :) I was more of a girly girl, always wanting to grow up way too quickly haha. Yum..grilled cheese you're right!
DeleteNice to hear that you are all doing well, staying busy and healthy. Resorting to the 'old' days of entertaining ourselves at home. :)
ReplyDeleteLove the old pics, especially the dresses! So cute!
Stay healthy guys!
