Mommy is gone....what now?

So for the first time since we have had Daniel (16 months), Jenny Lynn decided to leave me with the 3 kids all by myself for 3 nights. So what did I do, I packed up the kids and headed out west to my parents in Colorado City. I don't have to worry about cooking, cleaning, or changing all of the diapers, and the kids are having a blast.

Good thing we left Dallas too, because it looked like on the Weather Channel that we got over 3 inches of rain, and our backyard has a tendency to flood when it rains that heavy. Other than a rainy Tuesday, the weather has been beautiful and the kids have spent nearly all day outside playing. Peter, Isabelle, and Daniel have been a joy to watch as they all run around and play together.

Peter decided to pull Daniel and Isabelle all around the go-kart track in the wagon. I was glad he did.I had been pulling the three of them for almost 10 minutes, and my legs were getting tired!

Here is a great picture of Peter sitting in Ganpa's recliner and reading a magazine.

Did you notice the magazine he was reading?? "Well Servicing"

He spent a good 10 minutes slowly going over every page! Maybe a future oilman in our family. He can take over Ellis Production someday!
