Mog's pictures

 No lie, everyone worked hard on coloring the wings!



   




 A walk at Turtle Park was a real icebreaker, nyuk nyuk





I was also impressed by everyone's trampoline skills:
Edie climbs the wall
 John takes the plunge

  Oscar prepares to plunge


 Find three creendas, win a prize!

 The beloved punching bag lasted all of thirty minutes so we got a proper one. Eric and Oscar filled it with water, it took many buckets!

Busy Break

I think this was the longest "break" we have ever taken as a family.  No travel, no work, just chillen'. This was the best and maybe a little bit the worst: on one hand there was no pressure to get anything done and nowhere we had to be...very relaxing not to travel, on the other hand we were constantly in each others biz for 16 days straight...noone knws how to pester you better then your siblings an parents! Luckily X-mas was at the beginning which meant we were able to play with all of our toys!

The colorable wings were an immediate hit for the whole family.




John and Oscar actually rarely bug each other:

We took a break from break and went to the trampoline (and extreme activity) park! 






Oscar picked up Egyptian Rat Screw (the card game) and quickly became a worthy opponent...well for me anyway, Margaret still has to put on the kiddie gloves: SHES FAST!

We got a little snow but it was wet and rainy too.  Here is Oscar meditating on it after a shower


Edie might need a new bike this summer....we'll see

Also we can watch shows on Margarets computer which is a new one while enjoying the fire...it's the best

Also my new computer arrived yesterday.  It has yet to be installed; it needs an IT guy.  
80 CPUs, 2TB of Ram, and 80TB Solid State Hard drive.  Let's get some genomes assembled!

before and during christmas

Feels like a lifetime ago!

Edie gets a Pocky


John is going to looooove kindergarten

Shadows at Hawk Island

It's amazing how big a lap can become!

Beautiful butterfly



Learning all about t'moon and aw that


First science experiment: rock crystals. Totally failed. Always has.

We love....we love....the punching bag




 



If you've got a sled, then it's time to load all your presents on it and tour the house.

 Edie wants a ride too

And John

 A noble attempt
 





 
Oscar got Eric death's head hot sauce. Good call!
