Playing at the Mall Playground

In cases of bad weather we often go to the inside mall playground. Since the Texas storm hit St Louis this weekend we were inside.

Just so you know, I think the boys are just as cute as Elli but, they dont sit still long enough to have their pictures taken.

I have read that this is a conservative and sometimes contraversial comic strip- I dont know- I havent read it before but- these are funny.

Math A Thon- Please Donate

Math-A-Thon is a fun and educational fundraising program for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. Participating students obtain sponsorships from family and friends to work math problems. These problems can be completed in either a printed funbook or online. After students complete the math problems, they collect the pledges from their sponsors.

No one is against helping kids with cancer right? My kids think its so cool they are helping sick kids. I am glad they are learning math and selflessness. I think its a great program. If you can donate a couple bucks that would be great. They each have their own link, I try to keep it about even between the boys but all the money goes to St Jude so its not that important which link you use.

Grant's Farm

Due to cutback hours this was the only time we could make it there all year. But Yosef got called up during the animal show for the "rat race" as you can see the volunteers are the track, they also fed the goats and visited the other animals and of course Mom and Dad got free beer- it was fun.

Communism in the Bible

I was watching Fiddler on the Roof tonight with the boys. We went to see it live but Eliana couldnt make it through the whole show so we only saw half, now we are watching the movie. Anyway, I was newly amused at the line about the Bible teaching through Lavin and Jacob that we should never, never trust an employer.
