Monterey

Clam

This weekend, we went to the Montery Bay Aquarium with the Schwartz’s. The aquarium was ok, but I think that the kids mostly enjoyed eating lunch at Dennis the Menace park in Monterey. Also, here are some other pictures of my kids.

10!

katy birthday

Today Katy reached double digits, next stop, teenager. This morning we went bowling with Katy’s friend Jenna. Check out the scores. Margaret won with a 111. She was aided by bumpers, but did the rest on her own. Katy says the only exciting things she did today was go bowling, eat cake, and get a bunch of cool presents.

Easter

ballon bunny

The kids and I walked downtown this morning. On the way back, we found a balloon Easter bunny in front of Kuleto’s. This afternoon we went and tried to fly the pirate ship kite in the rain in Santa Cruz. In between, the children hunted for eggs in the backyard and Elizabeth’s parents and sister joined us for brunch.

New Blogging Software

I have just made the change from Movable Type to WordPress. The blog should remain pretty much the same, just a different look. Let me know if you find anything missing. Movable Type was getting to be slow and old. I figured I would go to what all of the cool people are using. I will be gradually fixing this as well as my ride blog up and making them a little more usable.

The Tech

The Tech

We went to The Tech with my parents. The kids did the usual: gene splicing, roller coaster designing, and driving a bobsled. They spent a little time looking at the the Rube Goldberg machine and playing in the fountain. – Rusty

The most memorable thing was looking through the Rube Goldberg machine and seeing several inches of Sam’s tongue plastered to the glass enclosure. When I told him not to lick the glass, he was surprised, and explained that he was cleaning it, and that it needed doing, as it had been dirty – Elizabeth
