Day#120

A bit delayed here but Gary organized Pi Day at work last week. We got up super early and baked a blueberry pie and a banana pie that he took in, and then I made a lemon meringue so those of us at home wouldn't feel deprived and could celebrate, too. He said the contest winner at work recited the digits to 26 or 27 places.

I knew it started with a 3.1.

Day#119

We attended Sam's blue and gold Cub Scout banquet. We've spanned ten years going to these. Our first one was Jack's in 2005, and next year will be our last one when Sam crosses over to Boy Scouts.

Day#118

A date night for us, in search of StL's best Cuban sandwich and an evening at the CasaLoma Ballroom dancing. Which was fun until a lady approached and asked if we were new to dancing and offered a business card for dance lessons. I didn't tell her, but geez, we had watched a YouTube tutorial one afternoon. But hint taken; we go to our first dance lesson next Sunday night.

Day#117

Day#114

Isn't the world such a confusing place?!

Day#113

I've started doing these black ink drawings called Zentangles. I find it really fun, and know it especially would be if I could spend more time at it. I'm feeling like such a beginner but that's cool. I, in general, enjoy the feeling that I can improve at things and develop further. And when that happens, I don't know, it's good, kinda feels like a pat on the back.

Like today, I got into wheel pose at yoga for the first time. It's really just like coming up into a kid's back bend, but it's something I found hard and impossible to do when I first tried a few weeks ago and didn't really think I ever could get it, but then surprisingly today, it happened and I feel great. I'm getting tougher and stronger!

Day#112

This week the kids have had PARCC testing at school. Sam's school had a different theme for each day. This day was "Don't Sweat It."

Day#111

This was from over a week ago. Grandma had flown in from Arizona, Grandpa was here to drive her home, and we had two kinds of chili for supper and then Ross set up this shot.
