Sleepover

This weekend we had 3 of Sean's friends sleep over on Saturday night for his birthday. Come to think of it one of them also slept over on Friday night. We are popular!

The kid on the left on the floor and the one in the green shirt are "the twins" (Nate and Eli although we can't tell the difference between them). We LOVE the twins because they clear the table, put things away and make beds. Of course they also move electronic equipment and have been known to disable our home network but its almost worth it for the free cleaning services. Peter couldn't find one of his sweatshirts and it turned up in the boys closet. We realized Sean had it in his room and one of the twins must have folded it up and put it away.

Sean is in the middle and to his right is his friend Alex. We love Alex too (even though he doesn't clean anything for us).

Sweet Sixteen!!

Today is Sean's 16th Birthday. We went out for sushi last night and to celebrate this morning I made pancakes for breakfast (never happens on a school morning):

Here is a picture of the birthday boy and Harry eating said pancakes (the phrase "pose for a blog picture" doesn't go over very well before 7am)

Harry and I went out for sushi tonight. The mochi is served cut up with fruit with a chocolate dipping sauce. Are you supposed to drink the chocolate sauce with a straw?

Early Morning

Harry had to leave for school at 6am today for a jazz festival:

Video Update

Sean was kind enough to drive Peter around on some errands yesterday.




Watch the driver in action!

Chauffeur

I'm such a celebrity that I have my own driver now...his name is SEAN! Yes, Sean finally got his learners permit. He took me out for a drive yesterday and did really well. So well in fact, that I asked him how he got so comfortable so quickly. He let it slip that he has maybe done this before with his father...maybe. I should have known something was up when he knew how to work the Prius.

I was a little hesitant to take photos on his maiden voyage (or so I thought) but he will be driving me to my manicure later so I'll get some then.

Spud Brothers

The latest craze...launching potatoes. What's next, cow tipping?
