Bonjour,

This morning, Joe went to the bank to preach.  The kids wanted Dutch pancakes for breakfast; so, we made some.
Joe stopped at the post office while he was in town, and we had two packages – one from both grandmas.  We had fun opening the packages when he got home.
We did some cleaning today.  The camp stove that we used to do the canning had left a layer of black soot over everything, and we kept tracking it in.  So, we got all of that cleaned up.  
Bonnie was playing with her play dough in the kitchen this evening.  She had her feet on the play dough making footprints and said, "Look, Mom!  I am inches feet now.  I am growing!"
It rained all day today.  The kids were getting a little stir crazy, but they found plenty to keep them busy.
A demain,
Joe, Laura, Gilbert, Danny, and Bonnie
