... or something like that.

Magic & Affection 86

T.J. performed a magic show for us after dinner...

...with Robert and Jacque being all affectionate.

Demo, Demo, Where for art thou? 85

It's been a rather tiring day. I started the day with a walk and a few pictures.

These flowers were part of a bush that looked like it couldn't support anything this beautiful.

Then, in the final stretch before getting home from my walk this morning, a dog, which I'm assuming wasn't supposed to be out of his yard, attempted to bark his way into chasing me, but I let him know who's boss and so he followed me instead.

Next on the agenda was the demo for the SCA, where Spud found out why hay won a ribbon...

Not sure what Ceyle is discussing with Kato...

and Udatai drumming on K.C.'s dumbek...

Couldn't forget the kids :D

Last, but not least...

Kinda spooky, huh?

WoF 82

We went to Worlds of Fun today. The kids had a blast, tho Robert was a little tentative about enjoying the rollercoasters. We did get him to ride on a couple tho. And guess what, no sunburns even tho it got over 90! Enjoy!






























The End

Wonderments 80

We had a quiet rain this morning and one of the plants in front of the house has pretty little pink flowers when it blooms. I have no idea what the plant is called, but I thought the water droplets looked striking.

The fig tree has simply been blooming up a storm, though during the summer I've had to water it every day or near as to that as makes no difference. It consumes water like mad, but K.C. indicated it was likely the air conditioner's fault. Regardless, lots of water. Here's the link to what the tree originally looked like before I started caring for it. I think it's come quite a ways.

Here's the drawing Michael did of the dragon from his book the other day when Jenn and Michael were at B&N's Midnight Magic Harry Potter party. I think he did an amazing job considering he's 12.

Family in Solo 79

It wasn't really a conscious effort, but that's what ended up happening tonight. I took a picture of each individual family member (other than myself, of course) at roughly the same time.

Jacque was watching a movie just before going to sleep...

Michael was trying his best *not* to get in the picture before he left to brush his teeth...

Robert was relaxing before his turn in the bathroom while a video game was going on the tv...

T.J. was trying to throw a pillow at me to keep me from taking his picture, but the video camera was too quick for him... Did I mention I like this camera? :D

And K.C. was playing Halo on his computer in the backroom.
