We Finally Got A New Camera

Leah keeps telling me that someone will find our blue camera in Israel. I hated to shoot down her faith, but we did get a new camera. Here she is after ballet class one day.

Levin thought I over-bundled Oliver for our 10 minute walk to a restaurant, but we were walking on thin sheets of ice, so I don't think so.

Here is Leah consoling Oliver after he woke up grumpy from a nap. She kept begging me the rest of the day if she could hold him, but he was not inclined to cooperate. Hopefully that means she can babysit our new baby. Baby girl is still nameless by the way.

Come to NYC

Lincoln,

Come again and barrow our car. We just got new tires for it. Swimming and Tennis and Chinese food. Aug looks great for us. We'll send you back with a care package for Spencer.

Food Storage Website

A friend of mine that I chat with while Leah and her daughter are in ballet class showed me this website for using food storage. Disclaimer is I've only looked at it for about 5 minutes, but I think it could be really useful.

I like her idea of using bean puree instead of oil. But like I said I haven't tried it, but I like the IDEA at least.

Lincoln, Come see us. You fly into Sacramento and then drive to mom and dads after you visit us. There are lots of fun things to do here.

I may not be any good at picking bowl games, but NCAA is where I shine!

Why not come visit Notre Dame? I maybe in the middle of having a baby at that point but if not then come! WE have a four bedroom on campus.

Lincoln,
We will not be on any trips, so we would love for you to visit us. I'm not sure if we will be living in Danville or Wytheville at that point, it depends on if we can get our home sold or rented, but you're welcome to visit regardless. We'd love to see you and the boys.

Family Vacation Plans Summer 2012

So we are toying with the idea of Preston, Ethan and me returning to the US for two weeks this summer. Siobhan's brother is getting married on the 16th of August and we are going to drive over on the first of August and leave little Lincoln and Siobhan in Ireland while we fly from Shannon to JFK or DC, rent a car and drive to visit siblings for two weeks and Hershey Park (Ethan's obsession). The only things I need to know from people are -

1) Will everyone be around during that time (I know oliver and taylor are planning trips out west during that time)

2) If the answer is no, can we crash at your place without you being there?

3) Can we use Oliver and Amber's living room again for an afternoon for Ethan's consultant threatment?

4) Is anyone willing to part with thier 8-12 year son (Benjimen, Josephy, Jared or Joely) to accompany us on our travels.

Thanks,

Lincoln and the gang

Layne:NCAA Tournament

This is Layne.First of all, I agree with Uncle Oliver.... that was the best game ever. Second, EVERYONE DOING THE NCAA PICKS MUST HAVE THE TEAMS THEY THINK WILL MOVE ONTO THE ROUND OF THE 32 BY NOON TOMORROW. I will be keeping track of the score.

BYU game

Did anyone else watch the game last night? Greatest BYU comeback in History. Layne I heard you stayed up - I wanted to call someone to celebrate after the game but figure everyone gave up. Best game ever.
