Nails, broom ball, and April Fool's

Just thought I'd post a few things that have been going on this past week. We have a bunch of cousins staying at our house and my grandma's house for a while. We invented a game called "broom ball", which we like to play when it is warm outside. Broom ball is a mixture of hockey, and soccer, with a few rules from basketball thrown in for good measure!

Friday was April Fool's day, and I did not let the opportunity slip by! Jesse, Seth and I planned lots of pranks, and managed to pull off most of them. For starters, we switched around the cereal bags, taped a light switch shut, and made ping pong balls pour out of the kitchen cupboard! That's not all, but I think I'll stop with that. What did you do for April Fool's Day? Did anyone "get" you?

On Saturday we worked outside for most of the day. After weeding the flower beds, we went out to the shed. My dad had just gotten some old wood from a friend, and I helped take the nails out of the boards. While I'm on the subject of woodworking, I might as well post some pictures of the patio table my dad made. I think you will agree with me when I say he is very good at woodworking. However, I will just let the pictures speak for themselves. :-)
