A written conversation.

During the summer, Remy was able to go to Cub Scout day camp.  While he was there, he was able to purchase a small bottle of dissapearing ink.  This cherished bottle of ink has provided hours of pranking fun.
Yesterday I went to walk down the stairs and I stepped in something wet.  It was dissapearing ink.  I tracked down the culprit, as I followed the trail of ink down the stairs.

Tate.

I knew that Remy would never waste his precious ink that way.

I informed Tate that he would have to do extra chores around the house to earn money to give to Remy so he could buy some more ink. 

Today, Tate started his work detail and earned .50 towards the $2 he owes his brother.

Later on tonight  Remy came to me and asked for the rest of the money.  I informed him that Tate still needed to work it off.

He then brought me the following note:

Make shore Tate gets me 2 dollars by tomorrow or I will be upset.

We then proceeded to  have the following written conversation:

Me: Remy, I will work on Tate getting you the money, but we are going to do some fun things tomorrow, so I am not sure if he will have enough time to do all the work he needs to earn all the money tomorrow.

Remy: I need it to be in my hands by Friday or Saturday! 

Me: I think you are being a little demanding, don't you think?

Remy: No

Me: I love you!

Remy: I need an answer!

He's gonna make a swell salesman one day.

Cornbelly's

The boys and I were able to go with Madeline and her family and Jerolynn's family to Cornbelly's a couple of weekend's ago.  I hadn't been since Remy was in kindergarten, and boy it was a blast!

They have so much to do there.  The kids ran from activity to activity and we didn't even get to do everything we (we, meaning the kids here, you know) wanted to before it got dark.

Here are some cute pictures of the kids having fun.


 


The kids loved everything, but the cow train and this big rocking chair were their favorites!
