It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown!
Dusty’s parents came up to visit today, so we took Evan out to Tanner’s Orchard. Evan had a great time running around the playground, riding a pony, and helping us pick out a pumpkin. They have U-pick pumpkins there, and it’s $5 for any pumpkin in the field. You take a wagon ride out into […]
Congratulations Nathan and Erin!
Over the weekend my younger brother got married. Everything went very well and it was a nice occasion. Congratulations Nathan and Erin!
Kickball game
Well, the weather held off yesterday and despite fairly poor turnout we had a decent game of kickball. Nathan, Laura, Brent, Dan, Beth, and Larry showed up and we played for about an hour and a half. We started by playing a few innings with two batters and five fielders. We played with a 1-strike […]

Evan update
It’s been quite a while since we posted about Evan, so here’s how he’s doing. Since he’s learning things so fast, this is probably one of the last times he’ll have a small enough number of skills that I can come close to listing them all. Evan knows the following signs, a few of which […]
Standalone DVD recorder reviews
For the past couple of weeks I’ve been researching and experimenting with standalone DVD recorders- the ones that work like a VCR, not the drives that work with your computer. I’ve long had a project to convert all my old home videos to DVD format, but my progress has been very slow, since using a […]
