Fun with the family

Matt and Karen and the kids were in town and came over to our house for some BBQ and fun!  We all enjoyed awesome burgers and played some Guitar Hero to pass the time!  Here are some great pics:

Slacking again

Well, I have been missing again, like I said I wouldn't.  :(  July 8 was Quinn's birthday.  We had a few of his friends sleep over, then they had a big party on Sunday, July 6.  It was beautiful weather, and I think everyone had a good time (even though Quinn was barely awake - ha ha).  Then Quinn had Tallinn over for a one-on-one sleep over on his actual birthday, and that worked out fantastic, too. (They got more sleep this time).

July 19 was our 16 year anniversary.  The boys stayed the night with the Perry's, and we had a wonderful evening of take-out Indian food and watching "The Bankrobber" in a quiet house together.

Skip ahead to the week of July 21.  I worked the Games for Windows - LIVE booth at a Microsoft conference in Seattle called Gamefest.

then on Thursday and Friday, I attended the Casual Connect Seattle conference (a casual games conference).

Luckily mom let me sleep in her guest bed so I only had a 15 minute commute each morning instead of an hour each way.  :)

Matt and Karen and the kids are visiting this week, and we are super excited!  Hopefully we will have pictures!  (Ya right)
