Evidently you just have to do this.


If you are a tourist at the Taj you are required to take campy pics like these.

The Taj Mahal






It is so beautiful. Made of the whitest marble. It is washed clean whenever it rains.

Where the Shoes Are.




There are a lot of people in India who don't wear shoes. We think it is because all the shoes are at the Central Footwear Training Institute, where maybe they are being trained to be worn, or trained for a new occupation. We drove by it every day on the way to the trade show.

The Last Waltz


We watched this documentary last night and it was awesome.

The Jubilee Line?

This week is Spring Break for all the kiddies in and around Tulsa. Unfortunately the early part of the week was plagued with heavy rains and a babysitter that couldn't drive. But, this week is also the week wii became a wii family. Finally. After months of waiting patiently, we got our wii this wiik. Special thanks to Amanda Lee Dixon in Denver where evidently there were two left during the Easter Special at Target. I don't know what she had to do to get it but evidently she saw the madness. We haven't had the opportunity since most stores in Tulsa hang signs on the outside saying "Sorry out of wiis". So, no people knocking each other out here to get their hands on the last one. It is installed and they've already been bowling and been to Super Mario's Galaxy. Yay team. Christmas already!

So, anyhow, regarding the title, as you know last summer we took the boyos to London. I bought a jigsaw puzzle of London's tube system to do in the winter months when the trip was all but forgotten. We worked it not too long ago and glued it together so we could hang it up. Now Brent quizzes us at dinner. What color is Jubilee? What color is Picadilly? What's the one that begins with a C and ends with an e and is a first grade word? What is the name of the purple line? It's pretty cute. We do not know the answers.

Most Boring Blog Ever

Hi, this is the most boring blog ever. I know. I have been waiting for Amanda to send me India pics so I could post them. Waiting in vain evidently......So, my camera got stolen out of my suitcase, discovered when we arrived in India. So....I wasn't responsible for any pics on this trip.
Anyhow I love that today is Friday and the weekend is spread before me with nothing to do. Vendors and employees are paid, husband is traveling, kids are with Mom, Mom is staying in because she is sick so I'm free and easy this weekend. I see Taco bueno and Masterpiece theater in my future.
