Having a ball

The boys and I found about 4 dozen tennis balls outside the City College tennis courts Saturday. Anna isn't all that impressed, but Esther certainly enjoyed throwing them Sunday. You should have heard her screams of joy.


I know the pictures need touching up and lightening, but that's not happening soon.
This photo is messed up, but just look at that face.

February 22, 2005 Tuesday Temple Shoot

As we came up the access road toward Mormon Hill, Joseph exclaimed, "What's that?!"

I don't know. But I think that I would like to slide down it. (The fenced area in the upper right of the picture is the tennis court area.)



Although having a temple built is exciting, pictures of the construction, especially with our access limitations, is somewhat less so, but that doesn't stop me from taking at least a few.





A couple (a pair?) of Canadian geese were feeding by the parking lot.
They were remarkably calm and let us come closer than I would have thought.


I shot this from Costco before we went to the temple site.

Ben says Esther won. She picked up Andrew's king and put him in the crocodile's mouth.

February 1, 2005 Men At Work

Through our charter school, Benjamin and Andrew were signed up for a rock climbing class not far from Mormon Center. It turned out that the class start has been delayed, but since we were so close...





These tracks were in the Mormon Center patio area. The gardener may be getting help with the pruning.
