Just some pictures of kids in leaves

Kelson has found a nice little nest for himself.

Trust me, that is Eli with his legs sticking out of the leaves.

Action shot!

OK, I'm putting on some pictures! I hope you're happy!

Not much has happened lately, mostly just kids going to school and basic survival. I figured it was time for some random pictures, so I brought the camera to the playground today. Eli and Milena are hanging together, but I'm not sure about the expression on Eli's face.

Here are the big kids all hanging together.

Kelson is happy, since he is wearing his sweatshirt which is too small, his t-shirt which is too big, and his fancy wedding shoes. He is a fashion king.

Eli loves to flip himself upside down on the bars. Maybe he's part bat.

My 10 Year College Reunion

Last weekend was my 10 year college reunion. I didn't bring the camera for anything, so there aren't any spiffy pictures of the events. However, I did go into my backyard and take a picture of the portion of GAC campus that can be seen from my yard. Naturally, since I can see campus from my house, I had to drive for an hour to go to the reunion gathering.

Anyway, some highlights of the reunion:

• I got to see most of the people that I really wanted to see.
• Eli won a chair on Saturday.
• Milena won a loaf of rye bread on Saturday.
• I talked for a while with Jeff, a guy who was one of my best friends in fourth or fifth grade, when we played GI Joe and Star Wars. We went to a different junior high and high school, and didn't cross much at GAC, so there was a lot of catching up to do.
• Big Tree and I mastered (for a loose definition of "master") two person, six ball juggling. And yes, it is important to count, even if you are only counting to one.
• At the Friday reunion gathering, I won the award for Most Children. In my acceptance speech I was able to use the old, "I have four children with three different mothers" line. Nothing like an inapropriate joke among strangers to quiet a room.

For Big Tree

Can you imagine where we would be right now if we were able to start playing Civilization when we were 7? "Build a temple on her!" Indeed.
