It STINKS to be a McGregor. Welcome to SPRING in Florida... most places in the country rake leaves in the fall... not here! Our trees wait until March and then there are leaves EVERYWHERE. So, Ryan has the kids outside ALL MORNING long raking leaves and bagging them up. Those kids are really starting to pay off around here. I had to take a picture because that's my Little Princess, holding the leaf bag open with her mouth. Needless to say, she is over her week-long illness. Yes, WEEK-long.
This is Ben's "I'd-rather-be-raking-leaves-than-hugging-my-sister" look. Note the amount of dirt on the Princess. And I just cleaned their bathroom, too! Oh well... Before you feel all bad that they had to do yard work, they are working towards a new Wii game, and are HOPEFUL that their Dad is going to say that last weeks work and this weeks work will be enough to earn it!
Stay tuned for our exciting week with the new addition to our family....

Hmmmm New? addition to the family??? Eli, Puppy or Kitty??? which is it?
Here is something fun that all kids love to do. Get you a pile of bricks and make them stack them in one part of the yard. When they are done, decide the stack should be on the other side of the yard. Then, when they are done with that, decide you really did like them where they were. This could go on for weeks!
Ah Tracy! Look at WHO you have become... moving those bricks helped grow you up into the Woman of God that you have become - a lady of Grace, Godly Charcter, Patience, Loving sweetness... I should think that EVERYONE should run right out and buy a stack of bricks for their children to move! :-) dad
Tracy,that is really not as fun as making them stand in a line for 1 or 2 hours until someone admits to stealing the doughnut.... only be aware that the person who admits to it really didn't do it! They just wanted to get out of the line. PURE TORTURE!!
