What a Strange Trip it was...



Ok, not that strange. It was great, really really great having Ed and Keith over for a few days. Where did the time go? Well an disproportionate amount went to giggling (Ian included) at watching Ed try to drive his Mario Kart...

Ed made his, now famous vodka sauce for pasta, which I have been assured took a dizzying amount of culinary skill. It was a sauce I am sure no one will forget.

It is always a treat to get together with family from far away. I am always struck how easy the conversation flows, the good memories recalled and new ones made. I hope they Walker invading men had as good a time as we did.

From fun bowling to the park, I relish the fact that the kids got to know their Grandfather and Uncle a bit better.

I'd say I was sad to see them go, but it was 3am when they left. And snowing.

Ian goes Punk

It, of course is my fault. You could say that about most anything. But this, this is pure genius. Yesterday, he and I were headed to get haircuts. He says, "what kind of haircut are you getting Daddy?". I give my stock answer, "mohawk". He giggles and says, "me too, we'll be twins." He is smiling ear to ear. Next comes the part where I carefully extract myself from getting said mohawk. He says, "i don't care I am getting a mohawk." I saw ok thinking Mel will never allow. She says ok.

Five minute update

Sorry, 5 is all you get today...ok at least for now. Here are the top stories from the past week: Thanksgiving. What happens when you don't see family and don't eat Turkey? Not so bad, sorry family. We had a blast watching the parade in NYC, it was a beautiful warm day. The kids and mostly Mel enjoyed the floats and balloons. We'll be back next year. You can see a slide show of the images mel took, far too many up to the right -----> Best quote at a concert, Best thing to happen to my brother in front of me, "Sir, would you buy me a beer?" -underage girl at State Radio Concert. Probably the last 18 and older show we go to. Save the security team, we were the oldest folks there... And FYI, Rob didn't buy her one, what a good guy. Then we talked about if we'll still come to these concerts if Reagan happens to go to the same one... We decided she isn't leaving the house watching some young girl crowd surf... Prickly Pear is out of the water....
