Camping Trip

 Last weekend we went for a few day vacation with friends.  We had a great time traveling in the motor home listening to music, talking and playing trivia.

The boys had badminton tournaments (bragging rights as the reward).

Below we were reviewing the photos and videos taken the day before at Wayumi (I'll post on that sometime).  Click here to find out more about Wayumi's youth day.

 The guys also brought the volleyball net along to hit the ball around.

I love the look on Dad's face!  This photo completely captures his competitive nature!

Our parents playing Settlers of Catan (a board game).

Playing Scrabble on the iPad.

The guys playing poker (I would like to note that they weren't gambling :)

 We had a great weekend!

More Fish Fun

If you listen carefully, you can hear the bubbles!

I also played with my underwater camera:)

A Fishy Video

Can you spot the fish that looks as if it has tumors covering its head?

 Today I decided to head over to Mammaw's house to play around with my under-water camera.

The Cello Song (Bach) - The Piano Guys

He's a Pirate (Disney's Pirates of the Caribbean)

He is an amazing piano player.  If you have time, check out some of the other videos by The Piano Guys!

She's a Daydreamer

Amy will sit out there sunning herself and thinking for the longest time.  I wish I knew what she is contemplating.

A Few Names in Tengwar

Here are a few names in Tengwar (a form of Elvish from Lord of the Rings).  I do need to specify that this is not the original language that Tolkien created, but I took 26 of the symbols in the language and assigned each one to a letter in the English alphabet and memorized them.  It is quite handy for writing in my journal:)

It says:

Brianna

Braelyn

Eli

My Chalk Art

Yesterday I decided to go out and have some fun with chalk!  I haven't done that in a long time and I really enjoyed myself!

Those letters are my name in Elvish (Lord of the Rings.  I'm a fan)
