Watch out!

Today, my nieces and nephew took me to OMSI (The Oregon Museum of Science and Industry). We had a ball of a time! Literally. Take a look.


It was a war zone in this room! Balls were flying everywhere.

Speaking of flight, I made a flying contraption out of a Dixie cup. This picture shows what it looked like as my niece, Bookworm, holds it. I think it flew very well; it flew up at least ten feet. I'm really bad at estimating, so that is my best guess.

What trip to OMSI would be complete without a visit to the Earthquake Room? None! My niece, Pixie, comforted me when the earthquake started. She was as cool as a cucumber on a hot July morning!

All in all, today was a fun day!

Testing, 2, 2, 3

This is a birthday cake that I made in January. It tasted as good as it looks!

Testing, 1, 2, 3

I just want to test this out to get a feel for how blogging works. I'm mostly going to use this when I go to Russia, at least that is the idea.
