New Friends and Old Friends

We went to a horse show today to see a friend we haven't seen in awhile!  

And meet a couple of new ones of the 4-legged variety!

Elle and Her Minivan Music

Elle's favorite part about the mini-van that accompanies her dollhouse is the music it plays.   Specifically, she likes dancing to it!

As The Tourney Rolls On...

I've gone from worst..

to first!

Let's see if it holds up! ACC looks lousy.... Big 12 looks lousy....

Jack's School Pictures

We actually didn't get Jack's school pictures this year though they came out well.  Anyway here's the "small version".   I'm told Elle's didn't come out well at all though I never personally saw them!

ASU Tops in Women's Bowling!

ACC Tourney Bracket

The ACC Tourney bracket is kind of crazy!  With 15 teams now in the conference there are two tiers of "byes" for teams.  The top 4 seeds essentially get 2 bye games... meaning that any of the 6 bottom seeds would need to win 5 games in 5 days....  There are only 13 games in the entire tourney.  Georgia Tech is naturally in that bottom 6 grouping (though they just got a nice win at Syracuse).

New Park, New Slide, Same Fun!

We took the kids to a different park today just for kicks... they had the same amount of fun as always playing together!

Jack Offers up a loong tour of some of his Star Wars Legos

You've got to either love Jack or Star Wars Legos to make it through this video...

The Famous "Neiman Marcus" Cookie Bake

The cookies are the best ever but Elle finds a way to top them with her dough-eating antics!

I Wish I was an Oscar Meyer Weiner!

Helicopter Fun

This iOS controlled helicopter is fun!

Five Days, Five Videos!

Here's Jack getting citizen of the month at school...

Georgia Tech Excitement!

Spoiled Kids!

Cupid must really think highly of the kids!  Between all their Aunts, Uncles, and Grandparents the kids scored valentines, chocolates, aprons and plenty of other goodies!  Happy Valentine's Day to all!

Happy Valentines Day

Give me a box of See's...or at least the Whitman's sampler...

Definitely NOT a heart filled with beef jerky...

Death Star Status

While the Death Star is far from complete, as both Mullins and the Emperor correctly say. It is fully operational!











Note the ion cannon below...

 
 

Blanket of Clouds

The sunset and cloud were pretty flying in from the Bay area the other night....

 

The Ups and Downs of Water

Go take a look from this post - when Folsom Lake was near its peak...

Now here's what we've got.... everything you see should be underwater except the most distant hill in the first picture!

Helen and Mittens

Here's one I thought Dad would appreciate!

Yikes! The Broncos are...

  In a surprisingly bad game where the highlight was clearly our chicken nachos at home... who would have thought...
