Fire in the hole!

Whew, it was a whirlwind day on the ol ranchero. It actually started last night when Sam went over to Grammies for a sleep over. He loves going over to Grammies and has no problem saying goodbye to us when we drop him off, might be something about candy....Anyway, this morning I ran in the Shamrock half marathon while Cheri stayed home and kept on chugging on the renovation. After I got home we went over to church so Sam could have some big fun at the easter egg hunt. Well, I say hunt, but it was more like an easter egg pick-up party as they were littered all over the lawn. He had a great time picking up as many eggs as he could and chucking them in his basket. They had a jumpy blow up thing and hot dogs as well, a great time was had by all.

The title of this post is Fire in the hole, because that is what I say to Sam before I fire up the nail gun. When he hears it he immediately drops whatever is in his hands and high tails it to the couch. I don't want to abuse it, but its pretty cool when I shout it and he runs. Thankfully, we are almost done with the nail gun for this project. Actually, we are down to patching some holes in the wood and then priming and painting to wrap this little project up. We still need to put doors on the cabinets, but that will have to wait till we figure out what style we want.

Well Sam don't feel bad, when your Daddy was a little guy like you, every time Grammy Re would turn on the vacuum cleaner he would run to the couch and sit there with a great big smile on his face until all the cleaning was done! Kind of cute too. He hated drive through car washes too. (With a passion!)

Glad you had a good time at the Easter Egg Hunt!

Love, Pop-Pop and Grammy Re
