Today was Jared's first real day off of the entire summer! Jakob has hit the stage of being all about daddy, and it breaks his heart everyday when Jared heads to the dealership. This past week he started knocking on the front door after Jared left crying, "Daddy, come back! Come back, Daddy!" It is gut wrenching! So today was pretty sweet for these two. They started off the day with a HUGE bowl of Fruity Pebbles followed by an exhilarating game of 'kickety kick-ball' in the back yard. (Wow Wow Wubbzy has completely affecting our son's vocabulary!) Notice that Jakob pulled up a croquet hoop to use as a necklace!
Then, they did a bit of artwork on the back porch. There are layers of chalk in that blob on the left! His hiney has quite a bit of artwork on it as well! 
So, after a sweaty morning of play, you have to have a major bath...a man-spa of sorts! Daddy decided it looked like too much fun not to join in! So after filling, and I do mean filling, the tub, Daddy and Jakob began to invent a new game that involved completely emptying the canister of bath foam into a cup. Only dads can come up with these things and 'blame' it on the entertainment of their children! Notice the blue tint to the water...good grief! They had a great time to say the very least! Here's to many more days-off filled with tons of fun!
My brother, or 'Bubba' to Jakob, is coming in tonight so that we can all go to our parents' house in Oklahoma for the week...free of cell phones and internet! We are going to golf until we hurt, fish until we're full, go to the zoo, a Red Hawks' baseball game, and shop until I drop! (Notice that I said until I drop and not until Jared drops...it would be a short trip!) We are so looking forward to a week of spoiling for all us. Fun stories and pictures are sure to follow when we get home! Have a great week! Oh, and today is the birthday of one of my dearest friends, Erin. Happy Birthday! I love you, sister!
