Well, in order of how things happened yesterday, here goes the important and big news.

First: the bunk beds showed up and were assembled for the girls. Both girls really like them - however, Ella was found this morning on the floor. She will happily tell you that she fell out of the bunk bed.

Second: After school Meg, Ella my parents and I all drove out to a local farm and picked up 11 little chicks to raise in our backyard. I am pleased to report that all 11 have made it through the night.

And then finally for those of you that know us - we have been pulling for Obama to get through this brutal primary. Looks like he pulled through just fine. I’m proud to be a supporter of his. The energy and poise he shows are just flat out amazing to me - each and every time I see him.

I think that is all the news I have to pass along for now. I am sure there will be more about all of these exciting events in the near future.

Well, we sit here a little earlier than I’d like on a Saturday morning - though it feels like a Wednesday - Holidays are great but they mess with your head - listening to the end of a book and drinking coffee. I love weekends when we don’t have plans. Sarah is off running, and the girls are calm - life is good.

Wow, I really didn’t realize how addictive this could be. Sarah has been obsessing about this for weeks - well the Presbytery website - I mostly just mocked her. Now I think I understand a little better. I have this need to learn what I can to get stuff up on the site and share things with you all - that is if anyone cares to check us out. Anyway, I just thought I would publicly acknowledge my wrong for mocking Sarah in her addiction - now mine too I guess.

Hi, I’m Meg. I am at my Grandma and Grandpa’s house. I am putting some dirt around the tree because they asked me if I would. Here is a picture of me doing that.

Here is Ella looking like a frog on this stone and lending a hand.

Check out what we did this vacation. This musky was caught from two different boats with a crappie on a crappie jig. 6 lb line on that pole I’m holding. Dad netted it from his boat while mom took pictures of the whole thing. Meg watched from our boat and tried to not get hit with slime. It measured in at about 36 inches.
