Pilot Car

Now this is a concept that we’d never encountered before but makes a lot of sense.

In MN there are three seasons:

• Winter
• Almost Winter
• Road Construction

True to the season of “road construction” while we were out doing errands along a curvy route we ran into some.

Rather than your typical “road closed” guy and then he’d wave you on to the other lane this car led us through. Makes a lot of sense since we couldn’t see very far ahead of us on the curves.

Quite appreciated the safety measures they took for both themselves and the drivers out and about.

Learning Curve: Editing PS4 Videos

For my birthday one of the things we got was the PS4.

(Parental life hack for large families, you get it as a gift for your birthday even though others in the family will likely use it more… this way you have a reason to say sibling 1 must share with sibling 2 since it technically isn’t for either of them.)

One of the cooler features of the PS4 is the “Share” button. Those that follow me on twitter or Facebook are already seeing my use of that.

Here is my first foray into uploading a recorded video though. Edited down to show off some of Transistor’s “speed attack” systems.

It’s a game I expect I’ll be returning to.

They offer a very powerful editing tool though, I look forward to getting used to it more and seeing what I can accomplish with it.

Picnic With a Side of Cat

While out doing so much yard work during the cat watch we decided to have a picnic.

The kids would tear a little of their lunchmeat from their sandwiches and toss her a piece or two.

“She Followed Me Home”

The cat came back, the very next day… Following Little Miss home.

The thing TJ was holding? A pack of tuna.

Yes, they fed her.

With as friendly but hungry as she was we thought she surely belonged to somebody else and just wandered a bit too far away.

Cat Watcher

So as we did our gardening and whatnot a cat decided to stop by and watch us as we worked.

“Everyone” was outside on such a lovely weekend, and so we watched as she wandered the neighborhood but kept coming back to us.

I felt like we were being interviewed or something.

Daddy-Daughter Dance

As a charity for relay for life the high school hosted a Daddy/Daughter Dance.

Of course I’m going to take my daughter to it.

So how did it go? Quite well. Though next year, the suit jacket stays home. I got quite hot while cutting the rug.

Good Morning Daddy

This seemed to be an appropriate picture for my birthday.

My little baby girls surrounding me and saying good morning.

We had some errands to run that morning so they were thrilled that even after Daddy dropped their older siblings off at the bus stop I was sticking around.
