What we consider FUN!

Yesterday when I picked my mom up to go to Lowe's, we noticed the neighbors were getting a new driveway. Wilson was immediately interested and had to know what was going on. They were breaking up the old concrete etc. My mom was telling him what Mr. Bob was doing at his house and how they'd be putting new concrete in and everything. We went to Lowe's. When we dropped Mom off, she asked the men when they would be pouring the concrete. They said around 4:30. So with a promise to bring the boys back we went home for lunch and naps. We went back to Mom's and pulled up right after the concrete truck had arrived. Perfect timing! The boys sat and watched for at least an hour before dinner. The watched the concrete being poured, spread, smoothed, etc. They were entranced. After dinner Luke looked outside and said "They still here!". So we got the chairs out again and spent another 30 minutes watching the final stages of brushing and curing the concrete. They were in heaven! We thanked the men for letting us watched and thanked Mr. Bob for the highlight of the boys day!
