Bumps, tools, work and fun.

     Charlie had a little mismatch with the skateboard and the skateboard obviously won. She was sitting on the back of the skateboard while her friend was standing on the front of the same skateboard and when her friend jumped off the skateboard flew up and Charlie went forward causing this giant, nasty goose egg on her head. We cleaned her up and put some of this 'miracle' clay on it and it looks much better just a few days later.
So sad!
    Mark spent the better part of an afternoon buying tools for his diesel mechanics school and then putting them all away in his tool chest one afternoon.
The kid has a 'special' style! (What is he wearing, seriously!?)
     I also decided that Labor Day was the perfect day to put a few kids to work. We went from a messy circle fire pit to this much better stacked square fire pit.
Isaac disassembled, Mark and Greg rebuilt and McClane and Charlie cleaned up the debris.
     These two always have a good time together, at least until the one in pink jumps off the skateboard.

     And this afternoon these three put on a pretty awesome, tiny, tea party. The tea set is tiny and two of the three girls are tiny and Charlie's just the cutest hostess.
Fun girls!
     So that's our week in a nutshell. Now on to a nice weekend with Regional conference in place of traditional church, which means 'free' day!

That goose egg on Charlie's forehead looks painful, poor Charlie!
Pretty impressive tool box Mark! The firepit looks a little square to me! LOL

Oh poor Charlie. Thank goodness for 'miracle clay'. I really love the firepit and MARK....that toolbox. How many teenagers have a tool box as nice as that one? COOL
