See, they don't always kill each other. Sometimes they read books together, saving the vicious slaughter for later.

Snow!!!

Helping with the laundry


Why not just dry the clothes while you're wearing them? And the clothes rack is so bouncy!

I'm probably imagining this, but I thought Alex was looking older yesterday. Despite the sleeper suit, cars and ponies.

Bowling Buddies


We went candlepin bowling the other day. It was Alex and Gabe's first try at bowling, but it turned out that, well, Gabey liked it, anyway. Alex dropped the ball a lot, Gabey got gutter balls because he wanted to, but mostly both kids kicked my butt. Sad really, but not surprising. We'll definitely go back for more bowling, but I'll take more snacks next time so that Alex has something to do besides complain that she's starving to death. And maybe we'll get Gabey his own lane so he can bowl nonstop like he tried to do the entire hour.

We headed off to Salem yesterday to do lots of not going into all the witch museums because the kids (Gabe) would go crazy. We did have a beautiful day, especially on the waterfront. Also, we and every other tourista got a good laugh out of the local liquor store. Not as good as the Bunghole Liquors we passed on the way there (eww) but close enough. Sorry about the out-of-orderedness of the pictures, but I can't be bothered to rearrange them.
