  • Monday "madness" is the day I get to spend with Daniel and Jonathan.  They come to spend the day while their Mommy and Daddy are at work.  You never know what we might find to do.  This is a game that Jonathan and I played before naptime called "Count-a- Colour" (an exciting dice game of counting and matching colours.  It is made by Ravensburger.  I bought it along with several other games at our thrift store.  Jonathan is very good at it, so good in fact, he knows how to cheat!  LOL!    While Jonathan finished up his nap, Daniel (who was up from his nap) and I "played".  He had a lot of fun putting the dice on the board, but of course, he didn't know how to roll the colored dice and didn't know he was to put the corresponding colored dice on the board to match the color.  It kept him busy for awhile though. 

    On Sunday afternoon our neighbor and friend, Hoss, came over and used his tractor to "rototill" our garden.  Since we are expanding our garden back to its original size (from years ago), we needed a plow to rototill.  The garden is now about twice the size it was.  The ground is  beautiful and we should have a gorgeous garden.....won't be for lack of trying anyway!
