Day Seven of Vacation – 27 December 2005

We had a bit of a down day today.

Mike had to go to work to write an OPR (0fficer’s Performance Report).

Jamin got the 5 older kids organized to try their hands at raking yards. I drove them to Lowes to pick up rakes and garbage bags. They ended up raking 3 yards and making $75.

Mom, Stacia, Zander and I did a BX and Commissary run.

The other kids were still raking yards when we returned. We decided to walk to the park with the four younger ones. Arielle, Nolan and Zander rode their bikes. It was a beautiful day here today – 78*.

A pleasant surprise was a package from Grandma Mary and Grandpa Earl. It turned out to be Night Sky monopoly…..fits in perfectly with our astronomy studies. The board is spectacular.

Dinner, another walk, playing “Narnia game”, Mike exploring geocaching and the day was full.

Ah one last thing. Tonight Mike dished out ice cream for everyone. Dad came in by Zander. Zander looked at Dad and said, “Grandpa you won’t like my ice cream”. :::snort:::
