other highlights of Christian's visit




















We went to see the movie How to Train Your Dragon while Christian was visiting. Then we went to McDonald's ... of course ... to get a Dragon in a happy meal. Apparently, it's a requirement. ;-) The movie, by the way, is a wonderful love story between a dad and his son; a dragon and his boy master; a boy and his village; and the token preteen/teen romance. Excellent!
















Christian sporting his dragon on his shoulder!

















There was, of course, a garden day. In the foreground here is the blooming blue berry vine! In the background is Gardener Christian, who is working with some specially made tools by Paul Paul just for Christian.















Super cool Gardener Christian, preparing the potato planting rows with his special hoe.















He also planted sunflower seeds ... which we are hoping will sprout as the ground is very cool still.

















There was a picnic on the porch outside ... on garden day. It was delightful!
















Looks like PAUL PAUL is pouting over not having enough cookies! ;-)
















Then we had a star wars project to tackle ...




















turns out Christian is a VERY good engineer!

















Game playing night! A Labyrinth game of moving paths was quite fun ...

















and Christian was very thrilled with this one. And he was quite good at it too!
















Then there was the polar bear game ... which Christian won as I recall ...

















And I think this is the celebration dance HAHA!!!
















And there was a pancake dinner and t.v. night on the last night! We so totally enjoyed having this little fella here. It was a wonderful break in our normal reality. Thanks to Jenn and Vic for sharing your fine fella with us!

Happy Spring Break to all!

p.s. blogger formatting is completely messed up and I can't get things to properly space. Please overlook this issue ... I will find the *patience* and time to correct this one day :-)
