Its been a while!

Hi all!!!

Its been a while since our last post. We've been busy bees.

This Friday Lauren went riding and suffered from heat exhaustion and dehydration. She's OK now but it took about a day and a half to recover. She has a nice bruise on her leg from falling which she's rather proud of :)

Zach is starting a new hobby learning about developing google phone applications. So far he can make it display "Hello." A journey of 1000 miles starts with a single step?

Other than that, we've been pretty good. We both work all the time, and sometimes get enough sleep for the day. We saw Shrek 4, which was okay. Much more dramatic and dark than the first one. (or 2 or 3). We saw Lauren's friend from college play in a baroque period quartet (violin, recorder, lute, and cello). It was in a beautiful setting at an old church in a pretty area of DC.

Next weekend - adventure! Expect pictures

Bye bye!

Lazy Sunday

Hello!

It has been a very tiring week. Zach had school projects and work projects to do. The nerve! Lauren has a new work schedule which is less than optimal for her (long long days). Zach got a kindle for us to play with. It is pretty neat! Lots of free books available, and we can get the newspaper on Friday to see free things we didn't even know existed in the city.
The meals this weekend were excellent. They included, but not limited to, Sushi at Yuraku, Chicken sandwiches and Julia Child's jambon (HAM sez zach) with some madeira sauce. T'was delicious!
Today we went kayaking. It was physically exhausting with around 900 Calories burnt. It was great fun to be so close to the water and one with nature. Lots of upper body workout that we will no doubt feel tomorrow (holding the laptop is tiring).
Zach has one paper to work on to graduate, and his last class is Tuesday. It is an occasion for everyone to celebrate.
