Saturday with Wyatt

Wyatt loves Mario. He also loves making books. Wyatt has made dozens of his own books that feature Mario and Luigi as the main characters. I’m sharing this because the buzz around the Prutch house is about Super Mario Kart for the Wii. Mom put down the money for pre order, and Wyatt has to come up with at least half of the money for the game.

He decided to see if he could make a little cash by selling some of his Mario books.

If you remember, it was a rainy Saturday. That didn’t stop him.

Despite the fact that the rain subsided, he wasn’t getting a lot of business. Hmmmm, time to take a break and think. Some people just think better when they’re swinging on tree branches!

He decided his table needed a little more pizzaz. Something to catch the eye of the passerbys.

Out came the Mario toys (and a few he had modeled himself out of clay)

Well, not all of our business ventures go as planned. Two hours later, we closed up shop and took our business in a different direction. Cold Calls. Grandpa Tony now has two of the Adventures of Mario and Luigi on the way to his house in Las Vegas. And Wyatt is .50 cents closer to his game for a grand total of $16.85.

Sarah is going to be a Mommy!

Just a few more weeks before Sarah and Joshua greet their new little one!

Boy or Girl? They’re finding out when baby arrives, but one thing for sure - this is a fire fighter’s child!
