Thomas and Maundy Thursday

On Maundy Thursday our three year old grandson, Thomas, spent the morning with us. Some of his activities follow.

The first thing he did was use play dough to make some figures symbolic of Easter.



We had recently finished our taxes and so another year of old records( eight years previous) could be shredded. Tommy loves to use the shredders and turns into "Shred Man" when given the opportunity. Below he is shown using the small shredder.







In another corner of the office is a taller shredder guarded by "Bones" who hangs there when it isn't Halloween. Thomas declared he wasn't scared of the skeleton and played with Bones' feet and then proceeded to to use this shredder.






Grandma hid plastic Easter eggs in the back yard, some of which had treats in them. Then he went for an Easter egg hunt.







After finding the eggs you have to sit down and count them and check and see which are "good" and which are "bad", that is to say which ones have a treat in them.






A good time was had by one and all, particularly Grandma and Grandpa.

  1. You have a very cute Grandson. My name is Ruby Jo Anderson and work for the Abandoned Mines Reclamation Program. Each year we put a calendar together. This year it will be on The Tintic Mining District. I'm writing because I found several pictures of the Eagle and Blue Bell mines that were absolutely fantastic. I believe you took them in 1990. We would love to get permission to use one or two of them for the calendar if that would be possible. If so, we'd let you know which ones we are interested in and would need them in HiRes. Also, let us know how you would like the credit line to read. Thank you so much for such wonderful photos.
