It's Sunday. I love Sundays. I am a "go to church on Sunday" girl. For me, Sunday is a day to relax and spend time with family. I prefer to spend my after church time just goofin' with Kenyon.

Yesterday, he told me about his little adventure with the Fathers and Sons outing. One of the fathers showed up with 14 little bows and arrows for the boys to play with. He also had one bow and arrow for adults. Kenyon did a lot of archery growing up, but hasn't picked up a bow in over 40 years. He took the bow, aimed at the target, and let it fly. Too high. He adjusted, aimed again, and hit the center of the bull's eye! When he saw that, he put the bow down. He said, "Boy, I'm not going to do that again, so I'll quit while I'm ahead." Another father brought 10 or 12 good sized swords with lots of padding and told the boys OK only one rule--don't hit anybody in the head. Kenyon said the boys really liked the swords and the father who brought them said he takes them to family reunions and other outings he goes too because it helps release the testosterone and then there are no "macho" fights to break up.

Two of the boys at the outing were the sons of my son and his wife that I was to be babysitting that day. They didn't get home until after 9 AM and they had not slept well so they went straight to bed. Their sister is a late sleeper so I when I got to their house at 6:30AM, I also laid back down and went back to sleep. Man that was a lazy morning.

After the three kids were up and at it, we went to an interactive museum and to a zoo. I really had a great day yesterday.

Nuff Said
