We're so excited about seeing everyone!

Daddy and Aaron really make chess come to life.

Aaron is a rook checkmating Daddy the king.

There are lots of handsome boys around here.

Making wrapping paper

Aaron and Andrew bought some presents, made wrapping paper, and hid them.
It was great fun until Aaron couldn't find the present Andrew got
and hid for him and Andrew couldn't remember where he hid it...

Aaron has been learning about US states.
He saw this blanket kept asking us to take a picture of California, "so everyone
can see!" So here is Calfornia for your viewing pleasure.
"Especially for Uncle Ben, because he lives in California."

Night before Easter baby woke up at almost midnight when mom and dad
were blowing up balloons and getting cookies out of the freezer.
He thought it was time to party. And last night he kept waking up too...

This game is called "playing a book,"
where the boys act out what happens in a book. 

This is Henry and Mudge and the Funny Lunch
(Aaron is playing Mudge the dog).
Other titles seen this particular day were
Nate the Great and Winnie the Pooh Friendship Day.
