Happy Pig Day!

Today Mo Willems visited the Falmouth Public Library and Charlie's class went to see him.  He read books, answered questions, and even brought along two characters - Pig and Elephant!  Oh, it was so much fun!  Mo brought a van and a team and they took Official pictures but included here are a few I snapped from alongside the tripod.

Phone Photos and Mini-SD

My cell phone has a camera - big deal right?  Doesn't every cell phone have a camera?  Mostly.

But my phone has this teeny little SD card that slides into a bigger SD card that fits into my computer, which I think is cool.

Here are the phone pictures that I have taken and deemed publishable - though that is a very loose term here.


Shopping for beach chairs - love the beach chair, never used the umbrella.


Where Mom and Dad took Grandma and Grandpa to tell them they were getting married.

The part of the beach between the seawall and the Tides Motel, waiting for JC to call.

Old Black Fly

An Old Favorite.  By Jim Aylesworth.  Illustrations by Stephen Gammell.

One of our favorite books.  We love the cadence - and practically sing it.  The illustrations are spectacular as well.


Old black fly's been
buzzin' around,
buzzin' around,
buzzin' around.
Old black fly's been
buzzin' around,
And he's had a very
busy bad day.

...

And I love the dedication:

To my brother Bill,
a legendary swatter of flies,
with love.   -- J.A.

Run and Stop

Baby Elle is on the move.  The pictures may be blurry but she sure is cute!




Rolling in the grass became a theme here, she was up and down again a few times.  Baby Elle is so much fun!

To the Vineyard

Yesterday... we headed to the Vineyard.  Took the Red Dog to the Black Dog and had brunch.  Then we poked around the various Red Dog shops before heading back to the Cape.

Chad got Charlie a puppy, of the stuffed variety.  Here's our day in pictures.
