Sunshine

We had some warm weather for a week or so. It was nice. It’s snowing today. Anyway… we are loving living in a cul-de-sac. It is so nice to be able to play and be with the neighbors without getting hit by cars! We’ve got one neighbor (who Eli lovingly refers to as ‘Uncle Mike’) who has many toys. Eli found the golf cart in his garage one snowy day and good ol’ Uncle Mike promised him a ride when it got warm. Not only did he deliver on the promise of a ride, he let Eli drive. He rarely touched the steering wheel. It was a tad scary for me, watching on the sidelines, but Eli actually did quite well. He only almost ran down a mailbox once, and Mike grabbed the wheel in plenty of time. Our neighbors have a sweet pit-bull, Eli calls her ‘Doggy’ and he loves her. He drove past her house calling for her to come join him. So, she did. The boy couldn’t have been happier. Driving a car with his best dog. (Sorry Wicket.)

Of course all the girls came running and wanted rides. We managed to get seven kids on a two-seater golf cart. We’re trying to talk Mike into buying a four-seater.

We ended the evening playing some basketball. Eli had a golf ball. You can see our kids have mad skills.
