Bunch O' Stuff

Over the past week we've done some fun stuff I haven't had a chance to post. So here are a bunch of those things...


Duncan and Liam's current karate session is ending and last Saturday they had testing to see if they are ready to move up in rank. We'll find out if either of them are advancing this coming Saturday morning. Here they are just before we left to go to karate.


Later that Saturday night we went to the drive-in to see "UP!" with our friends, the Bocanegras. It got a bit chilly, but we were prepared. Here is a picture of Jennan and Tegan all bundled up in the double chair.

Anna and I started a diet last week. We're doing one of those low carb diets. We both enjoy a late evening desert, so in keeping with the diet, it's got to be low carb. We'll usually have a bowl of sugar free jello with light cool whip, but the other night I decided to dress it up by putting it in glass cups and topping it with strawberries. It's funny, but it's way more satisfying when it's "dressed up" than just plopped into a bowl. (It looked so good I took a picture.)


Liam had a class project to make an animal from the ocean. He chose a puffer fish. Anna helped with blowing up the balloon and getting the paper mache together (and I think putting it on the balloon). Then mom and Liam spray painted it, and dad and Liam hot glued the "spikes" on, as well as a couple of eyes and some fins. He was very happy with it.


So yeah, that's a bunch of the stuff that's gone on around here lately. We're a pretty busy bunch.
