Arianna had her 5th birthday party today - this is the birthday girl with Grandma: (click to enlarge)

It was an enjoyable time, and I am looking forward to getting toether again next weekend at a campground in Tahoe National Forest.

- Sunday Rest
But only for part of the day, as I'm planning a visit to the gym this evening. With not much to write about today, I took a couple of photos of the sorts of things I find when my grandchildren are here. Note that two of them are able to write,...
- Still Counting Down
Joshua's birthday party for 16 little school friends was held yesterday at Jumpin' Jake's, a bounce house sort of place. The kids run from one bouncy thing to another for about an hour, then we go up to a balcony where tables are set and our...
