So here are some highlights of the last few weeks (I'll highlight San Francisco for my Flashback Friday this week):
I got a call at work a few Fridays ago, saying that this had happened to the back door. We don't know which little boy or cousin did the actually throwing, but we figure it was a mob mentality that resulted in a rock aimed at the glass door. Thankfully the inner pane is still fine, but we have to replace the outer pane. Anyone know anybody that does glass? Apparently the guy who came to do the estimate hasn't called Mark back.
I was finally able to capture an adequate picture of Michael's eyelashes. He has fabulous eyelashes that he got from his dad. Jacob is on his way to having beautiful long ones too, but they aren't as noticeable because he is so fair. I found out that Noah actually packed everything up in the Jeep during the flood, rather than the ark. I'm sure there's some mention of it in the Dead Sea Scrolls.
We had family pictures while everyone was in town, I think there was 27 of us. Overall it was a success, especially for the cousins, since we don't get to see the Alaska branch very often.My boys were really uninterested in pictures, and only were moderately behaved if they had "beans" (aka peanut M&Ms) as Michael calls them.They much prefered acting like this.Here is a photo op of my immediate family. Strange that we are all starting to look our ages.
So that is just a brief update, since it feels like I've fallen off the face of the earth and rarely see or talk to anyone anymore. But I suppose that is why I created this blog.

Great pictures. That door made me chuckle...boys!
His eyelashes are great! Lucky boy! Family pictures with that many people are tough! We did it last year with Steve's family.
Love the Noah in the Jeep picture. I am sure Noah wished he had a Jeep hauling a trailer with all the animals in back!
I feel like I have not seen you forever. I can never get adequate family pictures. It is a pain. I hope you are doing well.
Those are bee-utiful eyelashes! And the jeep is funny. Glad you got to spend some time with your fam.
