The Arthurs Come to Eugene

True Love

 

 

Friday, Paul and Steph arrived around 5pm with the boys in tow and a new Honda Pilot (insert “ooh” and “ah” here). We ate my special pulled pork sandwiches with pineapple rum sauce, baked beans, and potato salad for dinner while Zach and Nate had homemade chicken nuggets, yogurt, and Haagen-Dazs bars.

 

Fuji was very tolerant of the boys and hung out and played with them while Mooch hid under the bed most of the time and Sebastian simply didn’t come home the whole weekend.

Zach enjoyed playing with Fuji and the feather toy.

 

 

Our ten-foot Rhodie literally dwarfed Zach and Nate.

 

 

 

 

The ol’ Frisbee toss into the trees was a big hit with Zach.

 

 

We tried to get a shot of Jan’s lily before the deer could get it.

 

 

The big event for Zach and Nate was the trip to “Bounce” even though Zach got his big toe caught in the front door…ouch!  He still managed to jump on the trampoline for 45 minutes! What a trouper!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Afterwards we stopped at “Cornucopia” for lunch.

 

 

 

When we got home, Rich tried to sell me a pair of old shoes and socks…have a garage sale!

 

 

Later that day I signed Zach’s band-aid.

 

 

Paul and I enjoyed some very tasty rum and pineapple juice drinks.

 

 

Steph relaxed on the couch with her Kindle.

 

 

Sunday, we took the kids to Skinner Butte Park where Nate refused to get off the swings and Zach pretty much concentrated his time on the slide.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Mooch and Fuji expressed a sigh of relief after getting their house back.

 

 

Thanks Paul, Steph, Zach, and Nate for coming down and hangin’ out with Jan and I we had a blast!

 

-Mike and Jan
