Visit to the 'TA' and Pool Filling

Ouch! Two weeks since my last post. Inexcusable! We had a great time with Ashley and Dan last weekend in Wichita (or the 'Ta as I like to say). Their black lab, Dugan, is growing fast. Careful kids, that dog is approaching 50 lbs. He is as sweet at he can be. I found he has a penchant for fetch it. He's like an outfielder who dives and twirls in mid-air while grabbing his ball. Then he runs back with the ball in his chops and wrestles you for the ball. Lots of fun! We loved our visit. Lets do it again soon!

Come on over and let's get in the pool!

The flowers are from our backyard.

Here Comes Noah!

Like everyone else, Karen and I are awaiting the delivery of Noah Henry. Dani, I hope you're as comfortable as possible. We are very excited for you and Nathan. We're staying close to the phone and the internet for breaking Noah News. Push, Danielle, push!!

Hello and a Thanks

Congratutions to Ashley for getting raves from her employers. Ashley was runner-up for a national recognition award for her superlative performance at work. I know you're bound for greatness! Karen and I are very proud of you!
I now have my wireless router back, thanks to a Netgear tech from India. Ramesh talked me through the fix where others had failed. The Geek Squad guy, for instance, suggested a new router. I am delighted to have my wireless router back to full functionality. I told Ramesh he was my hero but he said, "It's nothing...that's what I'm paid to do." This in spite of the fact that there was no warranty because I hadn't returned the card. What service! and for no cost.
