Changes

As you can see, I haven't excactly been on top of keeping the blog up-to-date. It will probably be a few weeks in between posts. But that shouldn't stop anyone from checking back everyday, just to see our smiling faces. Anyway, i've decided to post cute or interesting pictures on the sidebar. As I update those I will leave them on our picasa sight which you can get to at http://picasaweb.google.com/abesdad/MOODYMOMENTS. Go ahead and check out our other albums also. Enjoy!

Jude's 2nd Birthday

This is at the Parade in the morning.

Jude turned two. We had a birthday party on the 9Th, that also coincided with Salem City Days. Just about everybody we are related to were there. We rented a snowcone machine and finished the night with fireworks in the rain, mingled with lightning. It was spectacular.

Abe's Tooth


Yes, it finally happened. Abe lost his first tooth. He has been waiting forever to lose a tooth, being one of the few in his kindergarten class not to lose one by the end of the year. I wish i had a picture of his face when I first pulled it out, because it was a mix of shock and awe, mingled with excitement and surprise. (and any other adjective you want to throw in there) But I guess this one will have to do.

Alaska



Well, just got back from Alaska. Ok so it's been almost 2 weeks. It was a blast and we caught a few fish. (yes the 2 biggest ones are mine) I also learned a few things, like tips spelled backwards is spit. (It was on a sign on the Homer spit) Don't mess with the local wildlife(if you squint it almost looks like a real bear) , and any fish with a saddle must be mounted.
