Monday, April 7, 1913 vs Sunday, April 7, 2013

Dora:
Washed A.M.
Painted cupboards P.M.
Ma and Pa went to town.
Pa brought home the automobile.

Note: I'm not sure which car it was that they bought, but this was their first car ever. I would guess it was a Model T, since in 1913 the Ford Motorcompany developed the first assembly line, making the Model T more affordable to the masses.  In 1913, the Model T cost $550, or $12,898.11 in today's money.

Ray:
28-36 Fair
Drawed 6 loads of manure in am.
Plowed and rolled.

Cayla:
Was just out of the shower and getting ready for church when Matt and Joy Skyped us from Uganda. We hadn't had a chance to talk to them in a long time so we caught up. By the time we ended the conversation, church was almost started and Tarek still hadn't hopped in the shower yet. So we didn't make it to church.
It was a gorgeous day though. We had lunch at Einsteins and then took the kids to the park.  Maurice fell and skinned his knee pretty good, but even that didn't stop him for longer than about 45 seconds.
I wasn't feeling well so I laid down when the kids did for nap time.
I went and got groceries after the kids went to bed.
