Today Ladger and I and the boys headed to town so I could get my groceries. We're getting freezing rain and the roads were a little slick - but not too bad. Winter looks like it plans to stay - Ugh!

We were waiting outside the post office for Ladger when an older man walks by. "There's Mr. Huncle" says Rory. "That's not Mr. Huncle!" , I reply. So who is Mr Huncle? Mr Huncle is Uncle Bill who drove truck for us during harvest for a couple of weeks - we rented some acres from him this year and he was eager to get the chance to help out.

Rory was quite excited when he saw Ladger come from the post office with a big parcel. He seemed to know instinctively it was for him. He has the never-ending birthday celebration this year with celebrations Saturday, Monday and now Tuesday! This time it was a gift from Grammie G and he couldn't wait to get home to open it. And then he couldn't have his nap until he played with everything. So I helped him put together a Lego oil tanker and he went to his nap with it. My boys never curled up to stuffed, soft bears....no, no....it has to be hard, sharp trucks or anything else with motors or wheels. Anyway the oil tanker is a big hit as he now has the means to fuel up all his tractors and combines :-)
