This picture is from our drive to FL. They give away free orange juice at the FL welcome center so we always stop there to stretch our legs and grab some O.J. Chance gets his own little cup which he really enjoys because it makes him feel like a big boy.

Driving to FL
We are driving to Fort Myers. We were originally going with Scott to San Antonio and then Atlanta but both of those things fell through so to save my sanity Chance and I are going to spend the week with my Mom while Scott is in the ATL.
These are a couple pictures of Chance having fun in the back seat on the drive down.

Hapy Father's Day

Scott and Chance have been having a great time these last few days. Enjoying a lot of Daddy and son time, wrestling on the bed which Chance calls "play bed."
This first picture was taken just yesterday while watching some tv, which is another favorite Scott and Chance pastime, Pee Wee's big Adventure I think.
This cute video was taken a few days ago when Scott made a whistle out of a straw and began to play and Chance chimed in. They are quite a pair. Chance loves his Daddy very much and recently has been greatly enjoying copying things that he does which probably also has something to do with this video. I recommend you turn your speakers down to start because it can get loud.

Blueberries




He has recently become more in tune with his dramatic side and is happy to share it on camera more and more. He has really started working on posing for the camera as you can see in these pictures.
When we got home we found some really tasty and easy recipes for our blueberries. One bucket comes in at 10 pounds though so even after making 4 jars of jam and 4 jars of blueberry butter we still have a 1 gallon

We had a great time, I will have to look for other farms to pick other fruits and vegies in the area. This would be a great thing to do on vacation if you had a way to get them home relatively soon or if you were staying with someone, it would be great to pick some then purchase the ingredients and make some jam to leave as a 'thanks for letting us crash at your place' gift.

Chance finds Boise
In Chances room there are two big maps on one of his walls, one of the world and one of the USA. I think I have posted here showing how our house, Nana and Grandpa Von's house and Grammy's house are all marked on the map. The original reason I got the maps was to show Chance where Daddy was when he travels. For a long time he listened but didn't seem to care and then all of a sudden he did. last week when Scott was in New York Chance started pointing to New York when I asked where Daddy was. When we returned from dropping Scott at the airport this week I showed Chance where Daddy was going. Then the next day I asked Chance where Daddy is, Where's Boise and he pointed to it all on his own. I daho is shaded green on our map so he gets a little confussed with Texas and Nebrasks both also shaded green but after another try he gets it everytime. So that is what this video is of.

All work and no play....
Makes jack a dull boy.
I am in Boise Idaho on a sort of weirdly scheduled trip. Anyway, I am staying in a doubletree and it is a really weird place it is only 2 stories but must be a half mile compound. I decided to walk to the lobby...
Sweet almost there...
Must just be around the corner now
Any time now.....
Alright, this has got to be it
What the heck is this?
@&$!$& what is this? Official hotel dungeon?
Strange, strange place
Cheers
Playdates
In case anyone is interested my keyboard survived it is missing Capts Lock,F1, F4 and alt. At this time they are no where to be found though the buttons still work. Q and M stick and S and F are now hyper sensative. If he wasn't so cute...
He's a regular artist
Chance still likes to paint but his new medium is ink. He now likes to draw freestyle on white paper with his colored markers. His imagination is really starting to pick up too, he named his drawings for the first time just the other day. I asked him what the first one was and he pointed at the mass of squiggles center bottom and said "house" then he picked up the yellow marker, added lines in an arc over the house and said "sun." I was surprised and really proud. Then a little while later he was drawing s

Hanging Out
Since our renters moved out yesterday we went over today to see how the place looked and to get a start cleaning the place up so we can get it back on the market and rented as soon as possible. Chance was having a good time. We brought over his little quad-cycle so he could ride around and since there was almost no furniture in the whole place he could go fast with nothing to stop him which he liked a lot. To sav

Concert and juice box
Last Friday we went to the family concert at the 3 Ring Circus. We had a great time as usual, we danced and sang and we made a craft (mostly I made a craft). A lot of the other little kids had juice boxes that they sell there and Chance wanted one so we got one and I prepared for the worst (squeezing) but he didn't squeeze it at all. He happily drank the juice and watched the band. It was his first juice box! If you remember from last time they let the little guys get up on stage and dance during the show, well this time Chance didn't feel like dancing but he still wanted to watch up close. The band did not mind at all and at one poin
