Today, my boys had me in stitches as we were riding to post . . .
Jonah: When _________ gets home he will get married.
Me: How will he find a wife?
Huck: He will have to cut off his beard. Girls don't like that.
Me: But he likes his beard. Can't he find a girl that likes it?
Huck: Nope. If he cuts it off he will find a wife.
Me: So, when he cuts it off a wife will just pop up in his house?
Huck: No, he will have to look in the road or in the grass.
Me: What kind of wife will you need to find?
Jonah: One that drinks healthy, eats healthy, doesn't speed, and doesn't smoke.
Huck and Eli: Yea and not a teenage girl.
Benaiah: When I grow up I be a garbage man! (An improvement over a cow)
Jonah: When I grow up I will be a cheetah - like in 43 days.
Jonah: Daddy is the best driver I know - much better than . . .
Me: Better than who?
Huck: A girl that isn't Juliet.
Me: Benaiah?
Huck: He's not a girl.
Me: Me! You think I am a crazy driver?
Jonah: Yep!

Traipsing About Tennessee - Fifth and Final
Last day of Family Fun Week :( Good thing the boys make everyday a party!
Jonah had spotted a donut shop and had been asking about it ever since. So, we started our day out at Krispy Kreme. Note: I did make them eat yogurt and fruit before we left the house. They each picked out the donut they wanted. Jonah chose birthday cake, Huck chose a baseball one, Eli picked out a smiley face, and Benaiah enjoyed a jelly-filled. Then, we spent a few minutes watching the donuts move down the conveyor belt.
Next stop was Home Depot for the kids workshop. I was so impressed that Jonah built the entire chalkboard by himself! Huck and Eli required a little help holding it together but did all the hammering themselves!
We swung through the Farmers Market for some more amazing produce and then went to the Clarksville Library. After getting new library cards we ventured through the kids section. We could have spent all day there! It was definitely the biggest children's section they had ever seen. With new books in hand we headed home to spend the rest of the day playing in the cul-de-sac and making new friends.
Now, on to our next adventure . . . our start of the school year, Daddy off to his new unit, and making more memories along the way!
