Saying Goodbye to Malibu and Pismo, August 4th 2011
Malibu and Pismo were our two birds. We had them for about 5 years. But once Daniel and I went to college, Dad was left to feed and water them everyday. He ok with taking care of them, but it started becoming a burden. Once we realized that neither Daniel or I would be able to take care of them after college either, it was time to give them away. We gave them back to the place where we bought them. The Animal House in Corvallis.
Here is the whole family saying one last goodbye.

Expeditions, August 2nd 2011
Over the summer I taught a class called Lego Engineering at Expeditions, a pre-college program put on by Oregon State University. When I was in 3rd grade I went to Expeditions, so its super cool to be teaching a class now. Its pretty much all I ever wanted to do when I was a kid. Make awesome lego creations.
