a glimpse into our lives!

This video was supposed to be of Jono jumping on our rainy day trampoline (mattress from one of the twin beds), but he didn't do much after I got out the camera. Instead, you get a long (sometimes boring) look at one minute and 30 seconds of mothering three under two. Enjoy!

looking through some pictures on the computer

and found some that David took at Great Grandma Wallace's 95th birthday party in Barnard a couple of years ago. He took some pictures of photos and cards that were on display at her party. This one, a Christmas card from 1950, stood out to me. In it are Great Grandpa Wallace, Great Grandma Wallace, Grandpa Wallace (Bob, David's dad) and his brother, Uncle AlJoe (the toddler in the picture). I was struck by how much AlJoe looks like Hazel. I called David over to see, and he agreed that there is something very Hazel-esque about that face. So, see Mary? There is Wallace in that baby! And doesn't Great Grandma Tressa look lovely? Incredible.

Charlie--on his feet!

for Nana...

Backyard improvements!

Notice the new fence along the back and the lack of an awning over the deck that had stayed up long past its prime.

Eggs are good for banging together.
