Measuring the Shopping Cart

Dina wanted to know if our shopping cart would be too small for a Christmas gift for Olivia, so I sent her a picture.  Too small indeed, these kids are growing!

Paul's 8th Birthday Party

I did not really plan this party much in advance.  I wanted to wait until I could walk.  I bought laser tag for Paul; it came with 4 guns.  So he invited 3 boys over, and Jayda camd to play with Joy.Roger spent the day with us.  He came home with us after karate while Angel sold her Chinese food in the city.

Jayda loved the cows.

 Roger thought they were stinky.

Learning how to work the laser guns.

Pizza.  Those boys ate a lot of pizza!

And last but not least, the piggies enjoying the pizza crusts and cake that was leftover on plates.  Their faces were all covered in icing like a little kid.

Paul's Birthday Present

What Paul wanted for his birthday was a new remote control helicopter.  I bought him a "quadricopter."  It didn't arrive till Wednesday.  It is really cool.
