Weekend

We had quite a busy weekend. Saturday Ryun was working for the morning and helping a friend move for the afternoon. Emily had a film shoot for the Burtwood School and a Girl Scout Harry Potter event. While she was there, Julia, Katherine and I went to visit my sister and nephew in Carver. Ryun picked Emily up from Scouts, and then when he got home, I went out for the night with my sisters and a couple of friends. We came back to my parents, went in the hot tub for a while and I didn't get home until after 1! The next morning, Emily went back to continue the film shoot for a few hours, and the rest of us went to my parents for breakfast. We decided to bring the kids to the new play space in Carver called Boomerangs, which we did, after picking Emily up and dropping Ryun off at home. It was a really fun place for the kids and of course, I took pictures!



Julia loved the ball pit, even if she was practically getting buried!


Big smile.


My little athlete shooting hoops.


My little drama queen pretending to be a pirate!


And then a model, or something.

Finally, we have Jack and Julia getting ready for snack time, with Katherine and Emily in the background.

Julia Cuteness

This is what happens when she devours a large chocolate bunny by herself.



And this is how she fell asleep the other night, sprawled across Ryun's lap.

Why Yes, I Am Clueless About Such Things

So, my new computer plays DVD's. I wanted to put my Uncle's retirement video up here (because it's very impressive and well worth sharing) but think I might need some special software to "rip" the files and get them on my computer? Am I right about this? I can play it using Windows Media Player but I can 't seem to find a way to transfer or save the files to my computer.

Anyone know?

Why I Love The Country

Your daughter can come running off of the bus screaming, "There's a duck in the yard, there's a duck in the yard!"

Really, after I got a description it appears to have been a flock of wild turkeys (mostly gray with a red chin is what she said, oh, and there were five of them) but in her excitement, she scared the darn things away before I could see them.

Seriously though? I love being in an area where seeing things like wild turkeys, deer, and other random animals are almost commonplace. I could never live in the city. Never.

Did I Blog About This Already?

Can't remember. Anyway, for all you 30 somethings (in particular female 30 somethings) out there, I give you this news as one sure-fire way to re-live the "good old days."

Drum roll please.......

New Kids On The Block are reuniting! (See story here).

I am SO going to that concert!

Funny, Funny Stuff!

GO SOX!
