Greetings Hombers and Moojers (Hombres and Mujers)

Hey all,
Don't get yourt collective knickers in a twist. I'm having some quality time at my MIL's tonigth and the fambily is geschlaffen.

I know I am threatening to get the internets again and the inchling (now almost 40" tall) reminds me that when we "buy the internet again we can see movies with real dinosaurs" referring to the BBC series with the very convincing CG dino carnage. Yes real dinos...

Well, how have I spent my summer vacation as it were?

I added a 20x20 bedroom addition over the kitchen and put up an attached two story 15x25 garage. still some work to go, and I have to get the pictures on a memory stick and upload them to picasa or some such.

I've missed your charming and witty banter, but I doubt I'd have gotten as much work done if I'd not been lashed to the mast so to speak.

Anyway, pictures to follow, promise, plus some hilarious updates on the inch and his kid sister the millimeter.

adidas, muchachos

I'm glad to hear the house renovations made good progress. I would have been really pissed if you'd left us for all this time and still not gotten anything done...

Glad to hear you fell off the interweb ban wagon. Add my interest in seeing the house update pics to the pile. Don't forget to add some of the smaller incriments as well!!

I'm also interested in pictures of the garage. I want to see how you get the cars up to the second floor.
