And the winner is...

...my bridge of 20 fettuccine noodles which held 35 pounds of books! Nurses do make good engineers!

Look mom! No hands!

Rewarded

Isaac has spent nearly every AWANA ticket he has earned this year on baseball cards. Tonight he happily tore through many more packs. The gloves are out and the boys are practicing in the yard almost daily. The season can't begin soon enough for them!
