I have a bad case of hiccups and Topher is asleep in the other room with his clothes and glasses on. I am SO happy that the CELTICS won! I was trying not to cry at the bar and now I am doing my own celebration dance while drinking San Pellegrino. Good times. Love to all. Hope I do not throw up. KG and Ray (and Pierce) and oh so many others off the bench who surprised us!, have worked so hard to get here..

I am so tired.

Today is the last day of one of my reading classes. I am bringing Mighty-O Donuts and Creature Comforts for them to watch. Tomorrow we have a half day of class and then it is Field Day! Topher has volunteered to come and run the Jump House with me. I guess the Field Day here is different than in the Marshall Islands, here we will be having fun with inflatable structures and face painting and eating. Well, I should get ready for another day. We are almost done....

Time waits for no one...

Here is the famous ever elusive Stellar Jay. I finally caught him on film!
We continue to grill, this was round one of veggies, which I finished off for lunch today. Oh, so good and my sweatshirt still smells like fire. (Turns out we both like that smell!)
"I am very disappointed in these bananas."
He finally got to throw them away and was very happy about it.
It actually rained yesterday, a lot. It was similar to a Midwest or a Marshall Islands rain. This picture is not out of focus. It was literally pouring out, the was people think Seattle is all the time. At school we are doing a play for one of my reading groups and it is both crazy and insanely cute and fun at the same time. Here are some pictures of the cuties! (Check out the dude in Topher's duds and the BABYHUNT T-shirt.)
