Busy Day

Rant.  My dishwasher is broken.  Again.  We have been dealing with this silly thing since the end of December.  I have had enough.  There will be the purchase of a new dishwasher this week.  The end.

 Today was gorgeous!!!  Kyle did a TON of yard work today and Luke and Leta loved "helping" him.

 We kept finding grub worms in the dirt and Luke liked to dig them out and throw them in the trash.  This particular load of dirt + grub worm did NOT make it to the trash and Luke and Leta had fun watching the grub worm.  I kept trying to get Luke to touch the grub worm or pick it up, but he wouldn't.  Then Leta poked it with her finger.  Since Big Brother can't be outdone by The Baby, he poked it too.

After my dishwasher was discovered to be broken we decided to hurry and change and run into town to look for a new one and eat at a pizza place we've heard about but never tried.  Well, the appliance store closed at 5 and we got there at 5:10.  So, off to Jo's Famous Pizza.  Here's Leta.

A.DOR.A.BLE!!!  Right?!?  And, she's almost as cute as her cousin Amelia was when she wore this outfit!  Thanks for lending it to us Audra!  Anyway, at JFP they give the kids a little ball of pizza dough to play with while waiting for their pizza to get ready.  GREAT IDEA!   It definitely kept our kids entertained and me busy trying to not let Leta eat hers.  We got the "Mediterranean" which included, mozzarella, spinach, chicken, sun dried tomatoes and feta.  It was so good!  Luke was particularly fascinated with the guy baking the pizzas.  He would pull one out and then set it on the counter and shout, "order up!" which Luke thought sounded like he was saying, "Bert!".  Luke likes anything that involves yelling and/or being loud so he yelled "order up!" several times during the night.  He was also curious if that man ever got tired of cooking pizzas.  Kyle and I think he was the owner of this particular location (the original is in Purcell, OK and opened in 1962...I think). So when we were leaving I took Luke over to ask him if he ever got tired of making pizza's.  They had a nice little conversation and I think Luke just may have a job there yelling "order up!" in a year or two.  He also spontaneously said, "You make yummy pizzas!" which made me feel good.  Good manners without prompting?!?  Dear Diary!  I also bought some of their pizza dough and came home  and put it in the freezer for future use.  

Here are L&L playing after their baths tonight.  "Mommy!  Two are riding!"
