Veronica and Walrus, Beauty and the Beast
Aunt Helen gave us Seaworld tickets in June. In the six months since then, we’ve been there at least four times that we remember. The ability to return again and again makes for a low-pressure situation where we can do just a few hours in the sun and waves, see a couple of shows and ride a few rides. Great fun!
Sleepy young ones at the Pet Show
Nic’s big present to the family was this UFO-like flying machine (which I had seen and flown before, see here and here). It’s a complicated, expensive and very fragile machine – but boy is it cool when it works!
Below is the feed from the camera onboard during a flight over the top of our house.
More time spent repairing than flying
UPDATE: The drone is currently dead. Parrot customer service has quickly responded with an offer to repair. Will update as news comes in.
Veronica slept through Christmas morning, so she only saw the Santa presents. We finally got around to opening most of the last presents Monday morning.
I live here.
We’re so happy that both Indy won and Jacksonville lost. Indy still needs to win against Tennessee at home next week. Don’t get lulled into the idea that this will be easy; any team can beat any other team on any given day.
As to the pool this week, Ashley has won for two of the four different outcomes possible. Gabi wins for one possibility and they split the other one. In short, If Atlanta beats New Orleans tonight, Ashley wins. If New Orleans wins, we need to wait until the Tuesday game. If Minnesota wins that one, Ashley and Gabi split the pool. If Philadelphia wins, Gabi wins.
Much more interesting leading into the Playoffs than last year!
UPDATE: It’s an Ashley/Gabi split win this week. Congrats to both!
Angry Birds for all three of them.
OK, this gets complicated. If Minnesota wins tonight in Detroit, then Cally wins the pool. If, however, the Giants win then there are two possibilities. If Baltimore wins, then Mom wins the pool. Otherwise, Andy wins.
Nothing for those of us in Temecula this week. Sniff.
