Clean Garage, Warm Hearts

Chad and his boys headed our way for a Saturday of fun. I decided to clean out the garage, but because Chad's good with organization, I soon learned to get out of the way as he (so kindly) tackled the workbench. This is the Before Picture. Andrew likes snacks in a little container: it can be this little Tupperware container, or a baggie. He just likes knowing he has some. I saw him re-filling his orange bowl from Alex's at one point. I'd make him the Banker in any game of Monopoly, with his stashing habits. Even though we had raked just the week before, the wind whips our fallen leaves into a swirl on our patio. Alexander found them and had a good time crunching through them.
Lunch, al fresco.
Now, art.
Our piano tuner, Conrad, arrived and the boys had ringside seats.
After. I made Dave promise not to mess it up.
Nap time, for one little boy.
We're watching the movie Ratatouille. I don't know what is making Andrew scowl.
To top off our weekend, Dave photographed this beautiful sunset on Monday evening.
