Sunday Nights

I kinda love Sunday nights. The boys are back, completely exhausted. I'd probably need to keep them home from school tomorrow if it was actually in session. It is fall break, so we have the whole week before us.

Maeser fell asleep in minutes, Abe has laid in bed for hours and I can hear him singing the Star Spangled Banner from the top bunk.

Sarah sent some quotes from the boys this week:

Maeser holds a leaf of lettuce limply between two fingers, says dejectedly, "I hate this stuff."

After I explained the concept of Friday the 13th he told me, "When does it start? I hope it makes my dad miss his flight back."

Maeser talking to a swiss kid at the park. "Can I pet your dog?" No answer. "CAN I PET YOUR DOG!!!"

No answer. "Ugh, you speak German."

Abe carving a pumpkin. "Carving pumpkins isn't very fun, is it." 

And Maeser has his first run in with an electric fence. Better the fence than the Swiss Cow.

 For those who stayed home, we frequented many parks and rode bikes everywhere. It's more convenient getting around town with only 3 children.
