We got to talk to grandma on Skype today.. she went out yesterday and bought a camera so that she could see the kids. We were on for over 30 minutes and half of the time she was just content with watching them play and be silly. Too bad it took us so long to find out about Skype! We could have been sharing so much more with our families and friends in other states!! (For those who don't know about Skype, ck out www.skype.com)

The kids enjoyed themselves a lot this morning. They asked me to build them a tent in the living room, and I have to say that they had a blast! Amazing how much imagination these little kids have!

Jim is leaving SUPER early tomorrow morning to go to Indianapolis for the Nascar race. He is meeting his dad up there and will not be coming back till Monday. :( It is always so hard when he is gone.. we miss him SO much. But with that being said, I do pray that he has a safe drive, that the weather turns out great and that he has a memorable and wonderful experience!!

As soon as he got home tonight he realized that he forgot his cell phone charger at work, so he needed to run back out there to grab it before he left in the morning. We all hoped in the car at 6pm and rode with him to his office. He promised the kids ice cream since it put a small damper on some quality time with them. Needless to say, they enjoyed that!! They were covered in ice cream, and had to go straight to the tub when they were done!!
