Simple Joys

The show is so fascinating that the kids don't
realize that the snacks are vegetables.

The truth of our lives is simple.

We spend a lot of our time in our back yard or in our homes if the weather is too hot outside.

Wyona delivered to us some old technology: a TV that runs VHS tapes.

Not only did she bring us the monitor, but it came with about 15 movies from the past:  The Lion King, The Toy Story, Dr. Seuz Stories and Buzz Lightyear.

All I had to do was pull out cherry tomatoes for Alice and some carrots sticks for Michael and our afternoon was set.

"Want to play Wack-an-Ankle?"

We have one other item that really works outside and which you can see in the upper right hand corner of this picture of Michael.

What really works is that fire pit in the back corner of the yard.  Last week it roasted some of the most delicious deer sausages known to man.

And Miranda found some chocolate covered biscuits that do away with the need for having graham wafers and pieces of milk chocolate separate in some-mores.  All she had to do was roast the marshmallows and put them between the 2 chocolate covered biscuits.

That makes living in the 21st century a life of ease.
