Go Vikings!

Okay so maybe Savannah is too young to appreciate the Helga helmet, the official head gear of any true Minnesota fan, but someday she will be begging for me to pull it out for her! And until then I can look fondly at my pictures of her yanking it off her head in disgust. Ahhhhh summer is coming to a close and after the day we have had school can't come quick enough. We have loaded up on last minute activities though, we hit the beach with some friends, went to the base pool today which the kids had been begging to go to all summer long. It has a huge waterslide and although you have to take a swim test both boys passed with flying colors. Jack got a bit nervous at the top and had to walk down once but got up his nerve, and once he went down once we couldn't get him off the slide. It almost felt balmy here today at 91, but since we have had over 100 degree days almost constantly lately a drop of 5-10 degrees is bound to make a difference. Ja mata ne!

Hey Ba, she looks like she's a die hard Steelers fan if you ask me ... that look says it all! Great pics - kep em' cooming. Don't forget to remind me (and you) to try out the whole camera/video callthing before i push off. Finished the memories thing and sent off, now I have to wait for their first "proof" and we go fromthere. Oh - also, remind me to call verizon before I depart. OK, hope 1st day goes well with the kids - i am sure you are ready for a break ... even if it is only for a few days. Talk to you in a few hours - Luv, J
