Indiana's Children's Museum

Caught ya! Here are some random photos of last Saturday with my dad.
Posing in front of the Star Wars props.

Playing dress-ups is a family affair.

I love the back light in this photo... and we'll all pretend that I did that on purpose.

Serious respect for the Star Wars display.

A Day with Dad

After Dad's business trip, all the midwestern family members converged on Indy.

We had a picnic by the Canal.
Look Mom, orange cheese all over our hands.  Yum!  Dad swears that it's not his fault.  
After walking to the war memorials, we toured the Indiana State Museum.
While there day showed off his great fishing skills.   Very impressive!

77 Dozen in One Day

A couple from my ward invited several families over for a corn party.  We husked and husked.

And husked some more...
Just to get to the good part.
I'm grateful for the generosity of this family...  I will think of them often this winter as I enjoy the fruits of our labors.

Hi! My name is...

Sometimes I feel like an alcoholic working at a bar...

Commuting

My daily drive to work has two major components:

My car cd player and the Indiana cornfields.

This is a fun new website to play around on... http://www.wordle.net/

I'm excited about the possiblity of making my own scrapbook paper. Check it out!

Namesakes

My family, like others, recycles names every couple of generations.  Recently we had the namesakes for my grandma (pictured below) and her husband (who incidentally, is my grandpa and not pictured below) together.

These two are first-cousins once removed who meet for the first time in a graveyard in Indiana. Family reunions can be strange... not to mention the people who you meet there. (I love you all!) We couldn't resist taking pictures of them.

Baby I* is particular about his personal space.  No one gets in unless he wants them in.  Baby B* is almost a year older than I* despite the fact that they are the same size.
It was great to have cousins and siblings to search for Garr graves with!
