Hot coco anyone???

During our last visit to Nana & Papa's the kids received some cups. They are mugs that have little animals in the bottom of them. Jeremy washed them up and showed them to the kids. We tried them for the first time during our Friday night pizza night. We had to hold off on giving them right away because they all drank their milk right away to see their little animal in the bottom. Here is Zach showing off his mug.
Of course that was not the end of using the mugs. The following morning we needed to use them for breakfast. Instead of milk this time we made some hot coco for them. Again they were real excited to get the mug empty. What made things so funny that morning what the after pictures...
Liz drinking....

Liz after....I think she liked it...lol.

Alex working on getting to the bottom of the mug...

Alex after finding the bottom...lol.

Somehow Zach managed to stay clean! So no hot coco mustache or him...lol.

Even though the weather is not great, we still manage to get out for a bit to work on the outdoor to-do list. The tough thing about being outside on the weekends is that the kids prefer to be with daddy. Like most mornings the kids did not want him to leave. Here Zach is trying to learn as much as he can about the chainsaw from his daddy...

Once daddy sit on top of the tractor and starts it that is when the tears start flowing...

and we watch him drive away...and as long as we can see him we are not happy camper...they know where he is going and want to be with him so bad and to be helping. Hopefully next year they can help more.
