This morning we woke up around 8am. The boys woke up soon after. Jared fed the animals and the boys had their breakfast. Then we headed into town for drinks and donuts. Stopped at Salvation army and Goodwill before heading home. On the drive home Jacob talked about the weather getting warmer so we can go to Copper Harbor. He talked about pulling the trailer, driving through the tunnels, and said we needed to blow up the big tent to sleep in. He is really looking forward to our vacation this year and talks about it alot. Around 1pm we headed to the dealership to look at a van. We took the 97 Dodge and the 97 Saturn to get appraised for trade in value. We found one we really like at a good price. We'll see what happens on Monday. After we left there we stopped at one more dealership. While Jared was talking to someone there he realized he had lost his wallet. We left to drive back to the other dealership but they were closed. Jared was able to get someone to come to the door and they searched but couldn't find it. We drove down to the gas station to see if it fell out there but didn't find it. After alot of searching (and praying) we decided to stop at my parents house and leave the truck there until Monday. Jacob was really excited to be at Nana and Papa's house and jumped up and down in the driveway. We went in for a short visit. Jared and Dad went for a drive to the last dealership to see if maybe his wallet was there. They were closed, but didn't find it in the parking lot. We went home and there was a message on our machine that the last dealership had found his wallet - we were realived. Jacob came outside with me to take care of the animals. He always wants to help me carry things. He helped me push the bale down and carry it over by the stalls. It felt as if I was carrying twice the weight on his side:) I cut open the bale and he carried a flake of hay by himself over to Maude and Lucy. He looked so cute carrying it and was so proud of himself. Had a fun, relaxing evening at home playing with the boys. Had some ice cream and watched I Love Lucy.

Great pictures. Love the one of them in the bathtub with soapy hair. I also love the smiles on Adam's face while he's playing with Jacob on the dog bed. They look like they are having alot of fun together.
