Catch-up #1
Oh. My. I'm ashamed to admit what month these are from. I'll let you guess. There are some great shots of Emma and Henry playing in the pumpkin patch, petting animals at a petting zoo, a busted lip and driving trains on Granpa Northcutt's head.

Showing Off is Fun
Emma, Henry and I went to the library this weekend to pick up a book for Marla while she was off at yoga class. I used the opportunity to show off Emma's amazing reading skills to the branch librarians.

Game Developers Conference 2007
I somehow missed posting pictures from the Game Developers Conference back in March this year. We had perhaps our best show ever in terms of show floor presence.

Dove Dash 5K
I ran in the Dove Dash 5K this past weekend in Dove Canyon, CA. I was just 8 seconds off of my best time for a 5K at 26'48". I feel pretty certain I would have been able to beat my record with no problem had it not been for a stupendous hill there at the end of the course.

I'm getting so close to being caught up! Who knows, one day I might actually post timely photos. This batch covers most of December 2006, again all from Marla's camera.

Fountain Fun Reloaded
Though it is not yet Spring we had a short summer-like heatwave last weekend. With temperatures up in the high 80's we thought it might be fun to put on our swimsuits and jump in the fountain.

Sensoji Temple
Another day, another Buddhist temple. On our one day off in Tokyo we visited Sensoji, a Buddhist temple in the Asakusa district. This large temple was completed in 645 and is the oldest in all of Tokyo.

Eyeglass Bridge
It's just my luck that my day one day off in Tokyo was a Friday, when the only publicly accessible part of the Imperial Palace (Kokyo) complex, the East Garden, is closed. I got some great shots, though, of the Meganebashi (Eyeglass Bridge).

Prince and Princess
Emma and Henry have been playing a lot of dress-up lately using some costumes we inherited from cousin Maggie Smith. With Snow White, Sleeping Beauty and Cinderella to choose from, who could ask for anything more?
