Catch Up

I have an iPad now.
An early birthday present
for me from E
because he wanted to take advantage of no sales tax
while in Oregon
two business trips ago.
I didn't even know I wanted an iPad.
But I guess I did
because I love it.
I think it is the first piece of fancy technology we've gotten
since my little ipod about 6 years ago.

I made a list on my iPad
of things to do this week.
Because iPad's can do that.
And it will type out what you speak to it.
The boys and I have too much fun
with that feature.
Maybe in the end it will help us all
to improve our speech and pronunciate better.
But until that time the boys can't stop laughing
when Kyler's phrase
"That is awesome"
turns into
"Dad is up dog".

On my To Do list
all week
has been
Catch Up On My Blog.
Because I haven't even finished documenting
the rest of my sister's visit.

So today
is that day.

Stefanie's and her family's Visit
Kacin and Kyler loved
playing with their cousins.

Swords! 



The zoo . . .


















Goodbye!



What I really want on my To Do list now
is Catch Up On Sleep.

A Weekend, A Weekend

With the Hyer family here,
we got out for some long weekend fun!

Pike Place and Alki Beach. . .



















Biography

Kyler chose Daniel Radcliffe
for his school biography project.
On the poster,
he drew a wand and feather
and Harry Potter on a broomstick
to help identify his person.
