A Nice Day in January

Saturday the weather had started to warm up, but not nice enough to be outside for long. We rode to Columbia and ate in the truck at Sonic, then went to Wal-Mart for a few items. Trevon can recognize signs, such as Wal-Mart and McDonalds. I remember how our kids started knowing signs right before they started reading, so he should be learning to read soon. We bought him a 'Scooby Doo' coloring book to help him learn to control a crayon and eventually a pencil for writing. When we were home, Trevon and I played with some Legos, and he can build things fairly well with those blocks. He likes to build cars, trucks and houses. It was funny, because a long, long time ago, Brent and Stacey made laps around our coffee table the same way Trevon was driving his vehicles around it. FLASH BACK!
This morning the weather was better and the temperature was near 60 degrees so we decided to walk around the hay field. Linda and Stacey rode in the back of the Mule as Trevon and I drove to the field.
 
We walked around the hay field and then went down to the creek and parked the Mule. The wind was blowing about 20 mph, but the temperature was warm enough that it didn't bother any of us.
     
We showed Trevon where he could stand on a dry rock and throw rocks into the creek without getting his feet wet while we set there in the sun watching.
While Linda was cooking lunch, Trevon and I colored a page in his new book. His hand gets tired quickly according to him, so I would color a section and then get him to color in Scooby Doo. Linda fixed us chicken breasts, mashed potatoes, biscuits and salad. Trevon likes salad, to my surprise, and ate well at lunch. Afterwards we read the book 'Toy Story' while Stacey took a nap. Trevon was listening to the story and we would talk about the pictures before we turned the page. After the story Trevon and Linda went to put up the Christmas stuff in the little house.
