Parker has taken in the past few weeks to drawing charaters and then wanting us to cut them out. Basically, he is making his own action figures in the form of paper dolls. It’s pretty funny. With all the toys that this boys has, he would rather make his own. So, I guess for his birthday, we’re just going to get him a few reams of paper. He spent most of yestarday drawing the characters from Larry Boy, a character created by the Veggie Tales folks. He then had Kayce and I cut them all out. Today, Kayce and Parker spent some time water coloring them. I have to say he did a great job drawing and coloring them. Especially, when you consider that he didn’t have anything in front of him at the time. He drew and colored them all from memory. Pretty good, I think, but I’m partial, of course.

My mom and dad were down this weekend. We had a great time. We ate chili, played, ate chili, went to the park, flew my airplane, wrecked my airplane, ate chili, etc… Sunday we went to Teri’s house to eat, which was fun, as usual, but even more so being able to have some my family there. Parker and Carson, had a great time seeing Mamaw and Papaw, as well. And Kayce and I didn’t mind having live in baby sitters for day, either. But it’s monday and we’re back at work… Oh well, back to the real world. Kayce’s class is studying magnets this week… I’m going to attempt to build a large enough electro-magnet to pull fillings out of her students heads… Or at least, to pick up a paper clip. We’ll see. If you see a large plume of smoke coming from Clarksville, that would be me. Oh, don’t forget to checkout the video and pictures sections, there are some new additions there, including the picture to the left. 
Parker celebrated his 3rd birthday with some family and friends. We had a good time. My family couldn’t make it for various reasons. It’s tough living away from family, but that makes it all the sweeter when we can be together. Parker, of course, got more stuff than any one child needs. He won’t play with everything for weeks. Check out the pictures page to see the party pictures. I just have to say that the cake was really good, we are still eating on it, and hopefully, will be for sometime. I can’t believe he is three, well, except for the way he acts sometimes… Other than that, I can’t believe he is already three. He’ll be in school in just 2 all too short years. He and I are both getting old fast.
