Micah's handywork

Micah tried his hand at making us a tabletop. He did a custom 8 point star inlay. it was totally experimental, and it came out beautifully if I do say so myself. i love having something like this in our home that was made by Micah, and i know it will be somehthing we will have for years and years to come. he used a combination of tiger wood, ipai, and wenge woods.

Random Autumn 2

Reading with Daddy before bed...
Rory had a fun run at school yesterday, and ran 4 laps(1 mile). They finished just as it started raining, then celebrated with Popsicles. C-c-c-cold....





He raised $40 for the school, thanks to Mema, Grandpa, and Aunt Kathryn and Uncle Jarrod(and Mom and Dad). For every dollar he raised, he got an entry to win a new bike, which is of course all he was concerned about. He actually was one of the kids with the most entries in the school, but i explained his chances were slim, and we should hope a kid who needs a bike wins it. He didn't seem to like that idea. Another kid won, he stomped his foot, but got over it when he went home and rode his own bike. Silly kid.
