So excited!!!

A new toy will be arriving on our doorstep tomorrow. We were able to get it at an auction site through Steve's work for over 70% off and it is brand new. Yeah!! It will be a lot more fun to record the kids and other events in our life. Right now I have been using the movie setting on my digital camera, but that only records up to 30 seconds.

Latest happenings:

• My sister and her family came through town on their way back from Michigan to Colorado. We met for dinner Tuesday, July 10th. It had been about two years since we have seen them. The kids have grown so much.


• Space Aliens was the place of choice for Jacob's birthday dinner with my family.


• Saturday was the big day when he got showered with presents - everything '24' from dad and mom.


• We went to a Saints game on July 18th. The kids had a blast and it was comical watching some of these fans.


• Steve and Jacob went to the Twins game on July 21st. Front row seats along 3rd baseline. Joe Nathan signed Jacob's glove during warm-up and then an umpire gave Jacob a game ball and thanked him for being so polite.


• Ryan has started using the p.o.t.t.y and he isn't even two yet! In no way am I pushing this, just asking and he makes a run for it.
