When it Rains it Pours

This past week has been a whirlwind of stuff. My parents came for a couple days, I've been under-the-weather, and it's been raining like mad here. Hmm, maybe Harpers Ferry will get it's long over-due flood (flood would end at the town's jurisdiction of course) and locals will have parking. Ok, that's not nice to think of.
I recently finished making 100 pamphlets for my Grandfather Douglas' memorial service ~ to be held tomorrow at one of the most beautiful little chapels I've ever seen. I will post some pictures of the chapel and pamphlets very soon. The ribbon I used is the real Douglas tartan, special ordered from Scotland. (I promise to post these pictures ++)
So, I am going to do some random posting here, just post what's been on my mind, what's been going on at our house, well just stuff...





This week Brendan picked up the new Depeche Mode and Pet Shop Boys albums for me. I wasn't too impressed with DM, but love love the Pet Shop Boys, Konrad likes it too, we've been dancing to it in the living room a lot.



We are smack in the middle of watching the Black Book. It's in Dutch, which makes it even better. Watching movies around Konrad's sleeping schedule can be a bit tricky. Luckily, we were able to make it halfway through this one..our goal is to finish it by next Thursday when I need to return it. Ha!! 




Brendan stopped by my work with Konrad in the above Haba chariot. It's much bigger in real life and very funny to see the Kaiser sitting in it. Brendan said it was on sale.... $500 off !? Apparently, a good deal. We look forward to taking this thing to the beach and piling other friends kids in it for rides. But Brendan has been touting the the chariot by the neighbors children and they all just stop and stare at the Kaiser being wheeled by, mouths agape and all.
