Bonjour,

Joe went visiting with Matt and Romeo this morning.   They did a lot of walking and had some good visits.

I did some work around the house in preparation for our guests.  The boys were busy playing.

Joe figured out why the dryer wasn’t working.  It was the regulator that the dryer was plugged into, not the dryer this time.  It is a blessing to have the dryer back up and running.

Joe made supper while the boys and I went for a walk.  Sarah had some of the ladies over this afternoon to teach them how to make cookies.  So, we went for a short walk after she was finished.

This evening, Danny got into the bathtub with all of his clothes on.  Joe had started running the water when the doorbell rang.  I was on the phone.  I heard a thud.  I thought the boys were just putting the toys in the tub, but it was Danny climbing in.

Gilbert is excited about the Post boys coming tomorrow.  Jimmy is going to sleep in Gilbert’s bed, and Gilbert gets to sleep in his tent.  He said, “That’ll be fun!”
