MOVING to PITTSBURGH
Hi all,
It's been a while since I posted anything, but things have been a bit on the busy side. Here's a brief summary:
- Our time at St. Christopher Camp and Conference Center has drawn to a close. We will miss everyone there tremendously.
- We have sensed God calling us back to our roots in Pittsburgh and have moved in order to follow that call.
- We are living with my brother in Bellevue for a month while job and house hunting.
- We are quite happy and at peace.
More as we know it...

18th place!
Hi all, just wanted to share one of my favorite shots with you. It just won 18th place in a professional photo contest with 500 entries. Not bad considering it was shot with a disposable camera. Not a huge deal, but lots of fun!
Here's the link:

Happy Birthday Andrew!
Andrew turned 8 on Sunday. Here are a few pics of him with one of his new presents: a Leapfrog edu-gaming device. He got a lot of "help" in the beginning from just about everyone in the family.

SNOW!!!
So, um. It's snowing at the moment. Real, honest to goodness snow. You'll have to look hard at the pics, but that's not dust on the frame, it's snow! Andrew and Molly got to catch some on their tongues even if it didn't stay on the ground. Andrew even taught Margaret how to stick out her tongue to catch some snow. Now, if we only had some long pants.

MEAT! the game
Dear Messrs. Milton and Bradley,
I write to call your attention to a new game being played in kitchens across the country: MEAT. It starts with a pound or so of ground beef to which some sort of spices have been added to make it a bit more tasty. A spoon and some sort of dish are also a good idea.
Both girls and boys may play, but one at a time is preferable. We will call the contestants/combatants in this particular example Noah and Dad.
Step One: Noah runs away by going out the front door or up the bunk bed ladder. While running he turns and calls over his shoulder, "MEAT!"
Step Two: Dad chases Noah to wherever he has gone, attempting to extract him from a hiding place and gently drags him, both howling with laughter, back to the kitchen both calling out, "Meat," as they go.
Step Three: Noah is placed in a chair and says again, "Meat," at which point dad takes a spoon filled with the above mentioned food and attempts to insert it into Noah's mouth. While this is taking place, Noah may block, weave, duck and dive to avoid the spoon.
Step Four: Dad eventually succeeds in inserting the spoon into Noah's mouth which is followed by Noah trying to swallow while laughing.
Step Five: Game continues until container is empty or dad collapses. Noah then be declared the winner and eat the rest of the meat on his own. Followed by strawberries as needed.
I submit this game to you for development as a whole family affair, but please do so quickly. Once this game gets out on the internet, your chances of making any profit from it will evaporate as quickly as a bowl full of meat.
Sincerely,
-dad

Cutest Picture in the World!!!
Here it is! The cutest picture ever taken! So cute, it's amazing, but I am risking it and putting it up online.(update: within seconds of posting this picture, it was immediately taken down by the international internet police. Apparently they have learned from the funniest joke ever and have taken appropriate precautions. Oh well, at least I can stare at it for hours on my own computer and go "awwwwwww")
