Luke looking at Jeff talking to Luke

Here is one of my favorite things...When we can talk to Jeff on the cuter. Thanks to Yahoo, we talk free. Usually we don't get video as well as audio, but yesterday we got lucky! They doodle together, play games together, generally laugh for an hour or so. Charlie was about home from school at the time of this picture. He then took his turn playing and talking.

Here is an up close of Jeff on the cuter. He got his packages that day and had already changed into a t-shirt and Clemson hat. That's the look that we are used to and it was good to see it.

IT HAPPENED!!!!!!!!!

Well, it's happened! Finally! Charlie agreed to get his hair cut! There was a hairstyle he liked from a guy in "High School Musical" and said he would like it. Samantha, or miracle worker, is in the background. He looks sooooooo good!
He stayed out of school due to his fever yesterday but is feeling better today.
Luke had to get his hair done, too. He told Samantha that he wanted it like a rocker in a teen magazine he saw- sticking straight up! She cut it so that he can put it up with gel (super glue) or leave it down. It looks good either way. He did NOT want his picture taken. I told him to hold still so that I could take a picture of his hair only! It worked! LOL!

Luke's birthday- he's 5 now!

We had a great time at Kiawah this weekend even though it rained all Sat and Sun. Since it was wet already and there was no severe weather, the boys got to swim and take an occasional bike ride when there was a lapse in the rain. We celebrated Luke's birthday on Sunday with cake and presents. He got a skateboard with Spongebob on it as well as all the necessary safety gear, as well as 3 new Monster Trucks...bringing the total to 30. There was a small petting Zoo at one of the farms near Kiawah so I took the three youngest grandkids to it on Sunday afternoon. Here is Luke with a miniature pony. Charlie loved these potbellied pigs and thought he had a real connection with them until he realized that they were trying to get to the apple slices he was holding.....
This is the "bull" that knocked Luke out of the way with his horn to get to my apple. He said quickly, "mom the bull pushed me, but I'm OK"


Charlie got a small jellyfish bite and felt lousy for the ride home. Today he came home from school with a fever! Just like Luke last week. He doesn't want to eat!!!! Something is definitely brewing in him when he loses his appetite!!!!!
