Today is my first relatively un-busy day in a while, so I thought I would blog about the past couple weeks:
First, I thought I'd blog about different members of our family's highlights of the reunion-My dad's favorite parts were, not uncommonly, the broom hockey and the dunes. My mom's: the Mine were probably just hanging out and playing sports- that and going to the dunes(seeing uncle Tom jump into a bush made just about everyone here's day). Jared's favorite part was the treasure hunt. We all loved that- thanks for the hard work, Jonathan! Miri's favorite part was the morning activities with her group, and Caroline's was the girl party w/ Aunt T. Jacob liked playing with his fellow banana slugs, and Julia enjoyed just about everything, with the exception of sitting still. I have no idea what Paul liked, mostly because he has yet to start talking. That wraps it up for the reunion- I think this one has been great for all the kids, since the adults worked with them so thoughtfully. Thanks to everyone for a great reunion!
I recently had an "epicoectomy"( a great name for what I would call "Let'sjustchophimupandripthedarnedthingout-ectomy.") on my gums. For most of it, I was on anesthetics, so I was just sitting there, looking around at things I had never noticed were even in the room. There are 2,049 little holes in the ceiling speaker, 394 dots on each of the floor tiles, and 125 little pieces on each side of the zipper on Dr. Cole's coat. That pretty much sums it all up, although it's nice to have it all over with.
Bellingham is beautiful at this time of year, and it was great to spend time w/the Mumfords, even minus Al. I went on my first real mountain biking trip, and was finally convinced that it's just as fun as-or more fun than- road cycling. All thanks go to the Mumfords for letting me into their house!

Sorry! MY favorite part was watching the adults lovingly, thoughtfully and with humor caring for all those tightly packed little spirits bouncing around! Wow, I've thought of counting those ceiling things, but never done it! I'll check your math next time I go. You were so brave with those icky surgeries!
I keep looking for new blogs. I love your sense of humor and apt observations. You're even a pretty good painter--of decks, not necessarily canvas.
Sorry about the "ectomy". I've tried it and wouldn't recommend it for a thrill. I just sang primary songs in my head instead of counting. It helped that I was the Primary song leader at the time. I wonder if you should tell Dr. Cole about the large number of cogs in his zipper.
