Picnic photos

We took these yesterday at the engineering picnic at JSC.  It was so hot and we were there from around 11:30 am until 4 pm---right in the middle of the hottest part of the day.  As you can see from the pictures, they had lots of fun things for the kids:  games, face painting, petting zoo, pony rides, bouncy things, rock climbing wall...  They stayed busy!  We also enjoyed good food and O and I really enjoyed the pine wood derby.  Different people made and entered cars to specific guidelines and then they all raced.  There were 70 different cars entered.  It was fun to see the creativity and to hear the friendly banter between the co-workers who entered the race.

We are going to lay low today and recover all of the body fluids that we sweated out yesterday.  No big plans for Father's Day.  Since we had a big family day with good food yesterday, C considers it all he needs to celebrate.  Now a day of recovery before the week begins.

Testing text 2

More kid photos

I don't know why my last 2 posts posted twice each.  I sent a text from my phone that was to go to twitter, facebook and my blog.  It posted fine to twitter and facebook but twice to my blog.  I'll have to mess around with that to see if it posts to my blog when I send it to twitter.  Technology gremlins....

Anyway, the kids love taking the camera now and shootin' anything that is nearby.  O had a friend over to play yesterday so O and M took turns with the camera.  Once they got bored shooting one another, they chased the dog around until they got a good pic of his butt.  Nice, huh?!








We lasted just under an hour before the complaining began! I'd say it was a successful venture.
