Friday night – Speed control

Slight lull in the action today as the kids do their own thing. Gabe is locked in the office upstairs working on his thesis. and max and Becky are out visiting friends. Kinda peaceful.. 

 

I got a part I was waiting on for a work project today.. a speed control’ somehow fitting in what had been a fun and hectic week.. 

You know its been a fun week when your back yard still has a potato cannon shooting gallery !


Wedding tomorrow.. stay tuned

Thursday night – evicted

The frost on this glass etching gabe made is a great echo of the real snow we’ve been getting

the cold and the snow are so fun .. Even the olive oil is freeizing in the pantry !

great progress at work today.. really enjoying workign with my freind Willem. Cool project.. maybe later I can talk about it. 
GOt hoem to help Max with his potato cannons.. they are having trouble with the cold air.  THey wouldnt fire if fueled in the cold air. We tried a ton of exxperiments and realized that the temperature of the air was what mattered most in making them work.  They worked great if they were fueled inside in the warm air.. then taken out loaded and armed to fire in the cold. Weh had fun practicing on ome of the pinatas that max had strong up 


We helped max and gabe prep for the cbachelot/bachlorette party tonight.. then made ourselves scarce

We headed out to dinner and  a movie !. We saw the latest  Captain America. movie. Not great cinema.. but fun.. we were almost the only ones in the theatre which was fun too !


After the movie.. we went home and causght the tail end of the party.. really nice group of … cant call them kids anymore.. people !

I liked the shot of the potato cannon and sam. he loved things like that !


Super nice evening !
