Great Weekend, Great Game, and No Toes Were Eaten

We had a great weekend here in sunny Massachusetts. The temperature actually reached 50 degrees. Can you believe it is supposed to snow tomorrow? The weather here is just crazy, but we will enjoy the 50 degrees for as long as it will last.

Forrest turned 25 on Friday and his command is so awesome here, he was given the day off. We started our three day weekend with Cocoa and Biscuits at the birthday boys request. Of course little Forrest was in Heaven when he found out this is what we were having for breakfast. See picture below.

Little Forrest was our comedian this weekend. He is always saying and doing things that crack us up. On Sunday we went to Kmart and his new thing is being able to walk with us instead of riding in a cart...this is very important to a two year old. He was walking in front of us when he hit the toy Isle. He looked back us and said "Come on guys" as he promptly turned down the isle and waved to us to follow as if it was no big deal and he new why he had come to this store in the first place. Then at dinner we had baked potatoes and salad but all Forrest Jr. wanted were strawberry's, so I told him that if he finished his potatoes I would give him some strawberry's. He looked a bit confused, scooted his chair back, pulled up his foot to look at his toes, and then looked at me to see if it is really what I meant. Apparently he only understood the Toes part of the word Potatoes.

He is the grandest grandson of all!!! He is pretty funny too!!! The next few years are going to be filled with moments like that. They seem to become little people over night. They have opinions, thoughts, ideas, and dreams that they tend to be stubborn about. All I can say is, sit back and enjoy the show!!!!

a refuge in times of trouble.
