I noticed this valve the other day at work and had to get a shot of it. We use liquid nitrogen in a dewar to produce nitrogen gas to help with a soldering process. As we run our machine during the day this valve frosts over.

Wes had the chance to video chat with his Auntie B today. We have been doing this fairly regularly since Christmas, but this is the first time I remembered to actually grab the camera and get some of Wes bonding with his Auntie. Its amazing how something like letting him see his far away family lets him “know” them while letting them interact with him. So very cool.

Wes Says Goodnight!


Wes found my snow boots and had to try them on… He tried to walk in them, but they were way to big and heavy.

Wes playing with Grandma and Grandpa Hall with the bowling set he got from Auntie B at Christmas…  He will only bowl on the wood “lanes” of the coffee table!

Wes also loves playing basketball on his hoop and slide he got from Grandma and Grandpa Hall…

Thanks to some technical issues with my previous blogging service, I had to implement some changes to the blog.  Blogger is gone, and now we are gonna try WordPress.  This will force me to actually try to evolve into using new technology and maybe make me actually learn something!

Stay tuned and bare with me if it gets rough…

Ski Nebraska…

Who needs fancy toys when Grandpa and Grandma and a box are around?

Wes helping to get our house ready to sell… He is a good little helper!

Wes helping himself to a little breakfast… Good thing I eat my cereal dry!

Finally a beautiful fall day, so we had to be sure to go to the park!
