Hey everyone... its been a crazy couple of weeks, but I've got a little time to catch up on this blogging thing.
First off I'll apologize for the lack of posting and the lack of pictures, but we've been quite busy with everything that is going on.
1. I finished the Harry Potter book after waiting in line for an hour at midnight at the B&N is Sandy. Great read. Can't wait for the 7th book.
2. Aaron finished "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" so Mom and I took him and Aimee to go see the movie. I give it four stars and say it's better than the Gene Wilder version (1971). Aaron liked the movie better than the book.
3. We went to Lagoon with the whole fam damily. Quite a time. Pics to come.
4. Kerry's married... finally. He and Michelle make a wonderful couple and they've spent the last week in Pocatello at their apartment "scrubbing the cupboards*."
5. Jamie is married too... at least that what Mindy reports.
6. I gave up my seat for my Thursday flight to LAX for dinner, a hotel stay and $400 in Delta tickets. I caught an 8:30 AM flight the next day. Pretty good deal. Now we can fly the Grandmas out for the baby in March.
7. Oh yeah, we found out two weeks ago that Mindy is due with #4 in March 2006. The baby is referred as "Bean" and in "We have three kids and a bean."
8. I hung out with James for awhile here in Los Angeles. We went to Venicec Beach, The Arclight Dome to see "The Island" [**1/2], went to Gloria's Mexican/El Salvadoran Restaurant, the Santa Monica Pier and Johnny Rockets.
9. Spent all day yesterday in the Professional Chapters Meeting for the SIGGRAPH 2005 Conference. Met a few cool people and learned how to better serve the local San Antonio chapter. The conference started today, but I'm not going to the Conference until Tuesday night.
10. Went to church with Joan, Donna and Grandma. Saw David and his family, Camille (Paul's wife), Mary and Eric (Mary's son). Had 'sloppy joes' for dinner (yum), and chatted the day away.
Well, that's it for now.
Hope that wasn't too quick.
* no really, their apartment was a mess so the removed all the contact paper and scrubbed the cabinets. Sheesh, what were you people thinking! ;)

Congratulations on the bean!! Now why wasn't that piece of news number 1 on the list? Glad to hear that you are having a fun vacations. You're not missing much with this killer heat down hear. Call us when you get home and we'll get together
Congratulations. Babies are so wonderful. You are both great parents. It was great to see you at the Jubilee.
okay can i just say that i was soo excited to see mike after about five gazillion years while he was here in the lovely L.A.? Bruce was also happy to meet him - the kids were more non-committal - but i think they were more interested in playing, than sitting around chitty-chatting.
Any i appreciated you driving all the way out here to see us (thanks donna!)
AND congrats on the new baby - I can't wait to hear what "A" name you guys choose. Arthur? Albus? Argus? Arabella? Aberforth? Amos? Anglia (as in Ford)? or Aragog? I think there is a HP theme here....
