Parent Free - Day 4!




Brian and his brother love "tickle time" and even though Daddy was away for a few days, Grandpa saw to it that they still got a good dose of tickling! Once the boys got into their position for tickling to begin, Brian would always remind Grandpa of "glasses!" Brian likes to have his tickler remove their glasses before starting so there is no risk of them being broken! What can we say, he is a safety boy!








Every now and then, Brian does something that completely surprises you. Sometimes he will go over to his brother and out of nowhere - give him a hug. While this is very cute to see, Grandma caught a moment that was even more shocking........Brian shared! The boys were playing with the toy piggy bank and they each took turns putting a coin into the slot. The sharing was somewhat short lived, but it did happen and there is photographic evidence of it!







Mommy and Daddy's Black Hills Vacation Blog: The tour of the southern black hills today included Custer State Park. There is a road in the park that is a fun drive, it's called Wildlife Loop. You will see animals of some sort - it's just a matter of how many and how close to the road they will be. We saw quite a few antelope (or prongs as the park rangers called them), deer and lots or prairie dogs. About half way through the Loop we started seeing buffalo. There were a few herds off in the distance but a little further down the road we saw herds up close and personal that were beside and/or on the road. Even though the signs say not to, we brought a pile of apples with us so that we would be prepared for when we saw the burros (nicknamed the begging burros because we are clearly not the only people who feed them.)
