Life is busy. Life is good.

I've not been doing the greatest keeping up with this blogging thing. What with all the babies to knit for and the school board meetings and the grocery store and dinner-cooking and the daily life things that seem to get in the way of things like blogging, reading and watching an entire movie at once.

We have done so many fun things lately that I can and should blog about.

Like go to the DIA with Grace and Alec, then hit up Northern Lights for some shuffleboard.






Or how about going to the Carolinas for Brooke and Jordan's wedding. We spent dozens of hours in the car (literally) over the course of 3 days and still went to sleep laughing at the end of it all. I'm pretty sure that's a good thing. Another good thing is the Nicaraguan coffee we got as wedding favors.






Or what about Claire's birthday party, where water balloons were the hit of the bash and lots of fun was had by all.






And let's not forget last weekend's carnival, where we met up with Colleen and Jon and their brood of four in downtown Birmingham. Rowan led the pack, while Jon and Iris fought for Claire's affections. Meanwhile Everil, the typical fourth child, chilled out in his stroller in an uber-laid-back fashion and occasionally hoisted on one of his parents' shoulders.







I can't post pictures yet of the super secret Father's Day project Claire and I made on Sunday...

So, there's the quickest recap ever of several weeks of fun. Dan's got more photos (and funnier captions) over on Wingstroke -- and always does so you should probably just go there first if you ever really want to know what we're up to.
