Christmas in July

He Old Oak Tree

Aunt Regina’s Moving Day

Putting together the guest bed. Blatant posing (the heads are on the outside). He did an awesome job helping. Bringing in the pieces, putting the springs on, and attaching the back, he did about the same amount of work I did.

... Next

A tomato has donated some sprouts to our late season maters. I believe it came from jazzing up the spaghetti my beautiful gorgeous wife fixed yesterday. Really I'll be amazed if one of them makes it all the way. We'll just have to see.

Pearce Pounds Pa

Pearce just beat me 2 sets to none. The first set was 4 games to 2 and the second was 4 games to none. I loved that last set.

Kin and the Art of Lawnmower Maintenance

Hanging In the Shop

Pearce came home early after the 4th grade picnic and we wound up messing with the bike that will be his. He kinda likes it. I also learned to my infinite chagrin that Pearce hasn't ever really used real tools.

Free Comic Book Saturday

They're enjoying the haul from free comic book Saturday.

They Grow Up Fast

Pearce sitting on the bed talking to a little girl. He had his tablet to show her an app he has.

Johnson Wins, Johnson Wins

Pearce's school won the Teach Me Tennis tournament this spring. They haven't won it since 2015.

Me and the chillens watching Forged in Fire. Pearce's favorite show. Claire likes it, too.

Beach Bumming in the PC

The Shenanigans Will Commence

All Hail the Viking King

Pearce decided to belego his Viking helmet. He got out the LEGO tape he got for Christmas and, well, he covered his helmet.

Hot Shot

Close range but still the closest grouping I've had.
