After a several month hiatus we picked back up on our Blockus tournament.
I am sure you have all be dying to know how the scores are adding up, and I wanted to let you rest assured that although still recovering from a heinous cold and being pregnant (for which I often can claim placenta brain), I WON tonight [...]

Easter in Durham
Posted in Uncategorized on March 30, 2008 | 2 Comments »
We simply couldn’t pass up the opportunity when it fell into our laps… a trip to Durham England with some of our favorite traveling buddies (The Merricks) over Easter to see NT Wright?!? What could be better?
We left early Saturday morning to snow showers (what would the chances be that the second day of snow in [...]
SNOW!

We have been experiencing manic weather the past several days! One minute we will see nothing but bright blue sky, the next minute big ominous clouds will roll in and it will be crazy windy with snow squalls and hail! This is the first time all winter that we have seen snow stick on the ground for more [...]
20 Week Scan

This past Wednesday we all had the opportunity to see the amazing gift of technology work, as we witnessed our ”wee bairn” (little baby) all tucked up snug and warm in the “incubator”. Kent had the job of trying to explain everything to Hannah, who had lots of great questions! Tears filled my eyes, while I watched it moving all of [...]

We hope you enjoy the video Kent created of our time in Edinburgh! Sometimes videos and pictures capture the experience so much better than words ever could!!!
Tupperware Time

I am convinced that there are such things as sock thieves and Tupperware thieves… little gnomes who sneak into your home in the middle of the night to march off with a Tupperware lid here and a single sock there. I haven’t figured out what they do with them once they have them, but I think the Aberdeen [...]
Motorcycle Mania

It began with a low humming sound and quickly became a roar. What I immediately imagined was that WWIII was upon us and tanks were inhabiting our city. A little research (a quick peak out of the window) proved my imagination to be way off as we saw HUNDREDS of motorcycles cramming themselves into our street. Kent [...]
KC Kangaroo

Monday’s “window weather report” wasn’t looking very promising… it was windy, sleeting, and COLD and so we decided it was going to be a good day to just stay at home.
We were very excited however when plans changed and we got invited by our friend Emma and her 3 girls to KC Kangaroo, (a soft-play gym for little [...]
Technology Days
Posted in Uncategorized on March 16, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
I have come to accept that part of living in the 21st century (and using technology) means you budget a “technology day” or two from time to time. The tough part is that your technology picks when you have those days – not you!
My laptop – my dissertation machine – crashed last week which meant [...]
“Sharp as a Tack”
Posted in Uncategorized on March 14, 2008 | 2 Comments »
I am quickly coming to the realization that Hannah has definitely gotten her brains from her daddy!
I was in a state of shock yesterday when Kent wanted to take to work a picture Hannah had painted. Hannah replied, “Daddy, will you stick it to your wall with that green thing again?!?”Now, we haven’t been in [...]
