While Bill has been living the life of a dandy in aspic, I've been having some family time on Atwood Street. The little boys were here this weekend. They are at a really fun age when they like to make up pretend games and say funny things on purpose (and also by accident). This is Malikai all duded up for a morning bike ride.
Bret christened the new fireplace this weekend. It was installed in the middle of summer and we just couldn't bring ourselves to make a fire inside when it was 80+ degrees so Bill left without ever seeing it in action. It was finally cool enough to make a small starter fire and tell bedtime stories lying on the dining room floor (which really shouldn't be called the dining room any more since we have no table). I was told I smelled funny during story time because I was drinking wine. (I had only had 2 sips!! The kid is a bloodhound.)
Trudi came over tonight for pizza and a chance to see Bill on my iphone using Facetime. It was midnight for Bill so he was lying in bed with his eyes half shut but I know Trudi was thrilled to see her boy. Poor Trudi has been battling shingles - remind me never to get shingles because it sounds a million times worse than any of the ailments that I am currently whining about. She said that they actually have a shingles vaccine so here is a public service announcement from our blog - get the vaccine!! Shingles sucks.
