swingin'!


swingin'!

Matty rigged up these swings for the kids so that we could avoid the afternoon heat (and, from time to time, the smoky air from fires!). They have been a big hit in our place.

Summer is going by quickly. Abbs will be starting school this month, and the grown-ups are officially back in school in September. At the moment, the dining room table is covered with teaching evaluations for Matthew's 5 years of work at UC Davis. We're going through those and putting together his teaching portfolio for his job applications.

On the Noah front, Abby and I think he said "Bus" a bunch of times today! We were out and about and saw a big yellow school bus, which Noah was wild over. He kept repeating: Bssss Bssss Bssss, after we said it was a bus. What is it about huge vehicles that little boys love so much?

Yes, I DO wish my Dad had rigged up swings for me as a kid! That's a great idea and great photo too.

That is hilarious. I don't want the girls to see -- they'll get they idea that they want playground equipment in our living room!
