Grandma and Grandpa Boardsen Visit


Dad and Ellen (Grandpa and Grandma Boardsen) came over on Friday afternoon to see me and the family for my birthday! They gave me a gift card to Target, where I pooled the rest of my money to buy a fire pit for our back yard! I've been wanting one forever!!! Thanks! The kids were crazy while they were here! We chatted for a while and Ollie wrestled around with Grandpa a bit! Don't forget the "cup" next time, Dad!

Buckeyes

While Dad was golfing, he found these Buckeyes on the ground and brought one home for each of the kids. He said they are good luck! Ollie and Eden each picked out theirs and Jaren got the last one.

*Buckeye Nut Folklore: nut is considered a good luck charm (put it in your pocket), relieves pain of arthritis and rheumatism, resembles the eye of the buck deer.
