Charles teaches Espen the fine art of knee-boarding.
Zach is looking forward to knee-boarding next time. For now, he's loving the thrill on the inside of the boat.
Espen gets up from stomach to knees. Good work, my boy!
Adam and Espen see who can outlast the other on the knee boards.

HEY! Nice to hear from you, Tia!! Hope all goes smoothly on your move! How brave you are to have a birthday party for a 10 year old in the middle of 'move-preparation!!' But it probably turned out to be a good way to see lots of friends before you go!

I am trying to get you all on here...If someone would forward me what they received I'd love to know what it says and if it gives any instructions on signing up...I'm not sure what will happen. "Ignorance is bliss and I'm SOOO happy!!" "-)

Rudy is a funny dog and seems to have taken up tree climbing. Maybe he has a secret desire to be a professional logger!! He is always gripping the trees with his teeth. At first I thought he was chewing them just for something to chew on; like a chew toy. But the other day I was out there and there was a cat up the tree and he was barking his head off and was jumping at the base of the tree. As he jumped I saw him take hold of the tree with his teeth and it dawned on me that perhaps he was trying to grip the tree to get closer to the cat. I mean, he HANGS there pushing with his feet. The poor thing is NUTS! I may be giving him thought processes that are out of his reach, but I thought it was funny!

this is only a test...

Hi all. MK is adding us to the family letter blog as authors so we can all add posts to the site. It'll be really fun to see everything that everyone is up to if it works!

We move next Wed., so we're busy wrapping things up in MI. Parties galore, and packing and cleaning are on our plate for the next few days. Espen just turned 10 and had a laser tag party last night. Lots of boys and lots of noise and fun.

See you all at the reunion!
