Friday night Katie and Jenny (daughters) arrived for the weekend with their kids (Robyn and Mike). Robyn is almost 3 and Mike is 2. All blogging ceased with their arrival. I live in a very small house so the kids ran the show this weekend. Robby (my son) came over Saturday and watched the kids while Zoe (LOML), Katie, Jenny and I went to the mainland to look for a car for Katie.

We found a possible candidate and then we had dinner and still enough energy to shop at Pier 1 before heading back to the Island. Robby was playing the Muppet Sing Alongs - Muppet Treasure Island video, for the fourth time, when we arrived home. The kids wanted more. Robby was starting to twitch. Actually, Robby was availing himself of my DSL connection and LimeWire while the kids were watching the video. Then he needed a CDR blank to burn the MP3s.

They left this afternoon to go back to Tacoma, but there were calls about consumer report articles and agonizing over car payments this evening. Katie is 21 and this will be her first nice car. We should have more financing info tomorrow and some final decisions. Maybe.

I revised the web archives. They had been on a monthly basis but I went back to look at one and realized how big they were. I do like pictures. Now they are split up into weeks. That makes a long list but a more managable page.
