Sleepover w/ Megan

Our favorite 11 year old girlfriend Megan (my former student) came over at the beginning of our week vacation for a 2 night sleepover. We can't stand to only have her over for 1 night, so we always ask her mom if we can keep her. She makes all of us laugh so hard. Jefferson ends up tearing up he laughs so hard. She is one of the funniest, goofiest, sweetest girls we've ever met. Mikayl and Megan became friends over a quick breakfast last winter and when they get together we all have a great time. We make movies on our video camera and they have quite the imagination! I'll try to get the video up on a future post. They are called "The Sleepover Adventures".

Jefferson's Flower Mural

Flower Mural

We had an awesome week of vacation with both Jefferson and Mikayl home. We were very busy with sleepovers, Raging Waters, home projects to work on, family in town, car repairs, whew! In the midst of all of that Jefferson promised a painted mural for mIkayl on one of her bedroom walls. She decided on a Gerber Daisy and after bringing me some last week, he took photos , sketched it out on paper, and then amazed us by painting it freehand in just 2 days. I am so impressed with his artistic talent. He's had lots of experience drawing on paper, but none with painting large scale on a wall. OK, I'm done bragging about my husband's talent. Enjoy the pics of his work of art.
