Brother time

Les' big brother Howard has been here for a week.  He called up awhile ago and said he wanted to visit and just hang out with his brother.  I think he also wanted to escape the frozen tundra in the midwest :)  Worked for me since January is one of my busiest months!!

Our friend Carl called about this time "would you and Les be interested in going to the Seahawks playoff game on the 11th?"  I informed him that brother-in-law Howard would be here so didn't know.  Carl then called Les and Les said "of course! I'll take my brother!!"  Um, hello, what about ME???

Thank you Carl. Priceless.

They spent time just putzing.  Niece Emily who lives out here is Howard's daughter so Howard spent time cleaning Emily's car, building shelves in her garage,  being a dad.  The brothers put together our kids' old crib (Kaden needs a place to sleep!), washed cars, drove around the county.  When these two are together it's a bit scary - they are two peas in a pod.  We tease Emily about having two dads to watch over her!  So many similarities.  There is 8 years between these two brothers but we have stayed close with this family since they have visited out here so many times.  Here is a picture of Les' family.  We are hearing rumors of more of these peeps visiting soon!

The brothers had a good time.  Thanks for the visit Howard.  We are next looking forward to Les' checkup at the UW next Wednesday, the 22nd.  We are anxious for that, curious to hear what Dr. Weiss has to say.  Please pray for peace for both of us.
