Swing Jacob, Swing
To the Driving Range
Good Deed Gone Bad
I put our empty (or, almost empty) ink cartridges in a charity recycle bag. One of those that I picked up at Petsmart, that benefits some charity for animals. Anyway, I put the sealed bag into our mailbox, raised the flag, and went on with the rest of the day. A few hours later Ryan called me while Jacob and I were out swimming. He said that our postal carrier brought my package to the door and said that the ink leak out everywhere on her. Permanent printer ink, of course. She said that she didn't think it damaged any of the mail, just her clothing. Oops...

Mission Valley Trip
We just got back from a three-day trip to see Ryan's grandparents/Jacob's great grandparents in Mission Valley, outside of Victoria. The weather was decent except for a few rain showers and wind, just a few of the affects of "Dolly". The boys had a wonderful time. Jacob especially loved all the animals. He was completely in his element.

Jacob and his treasured "pew" -- aka "toy gun". It is a "pew" because that is the sound it makes!
Jacob riding "Teddy", or as Jacob calls him, "Taddy" -- Aunt Brenda's horse.
Bubba -- the sweetest Moo Cow!

Guys and Dogs
I thought this was a cute picture of Ryan, Jacob, Taylor and Draco. They LOVE to all sit on the sofa and play.

This week...
We've had quite a busy week, as we usually do after returning home from a trip to N. Texas. Here is a quick rundown of our busy week:
Monday: Jacob spent the majority of his day with his Mimi and cousin Tyler. I spent my time (w/o Jacob) running errands and cleaning the house. My main goal for Monday was to get bedding for Jacob's new (well, new to him) bed. Mission accomplished. We spent some time outdoors that evening and relaxed for a while.
Tuesday: I am taking a Beth Moore Bible Study at our church on Tuesdays, for the next five weeks. It is a great study about the Psalms of Ascents (Chapters 120-132). We are there for two hours, which is a great amount of time for Jacob to play with others his age. Tuesday afternoon we ran more errands and played at the house.
Wednesday: Jacob's cousin Tyler came over to play. The boys played until after lunch, then we went to the Katy Mills Mall. They were hosting a "Pirate Adventure". It was a great performance with a stage, props, costumes and all. We mets some of our friends there. The boys loved it and received treasures at the end of the performance. The loot was a pirate's hat, eye patch, ring, mug, and sword. It was great. We came home right as the rain started, lots of rain. We did get quite soaked. We took Tyler back to Mimi's house and then headed home. We spent the evening reading and watching TV.
Thursday: Our friends Melissa and Brian came over today to spend the day with us. We went to the Barn Park in Katy and then to McDonald's for lunch. More rain came our way and we got soaked again getting in and out of the car. Melissa and Brian spent the afternoon with us at our home. The boys had lots of fun playing with Jacob's toys. This evening we took our pups for a long walk and are concluding the evening by relaxing.
Tomorrow: No huge plans as of yet. Jacob and I have to pick up a b-day present for a party we are going to on Saturday. It is a bowling party, and will be the first time Jacob will get to bowl. It should be lots of fun. Jacob, his daddy, and Papa are going to the Driving Ranch (Range) tomorrow evening. Jacob is really looking forward to his golf-golf.
