Tonight or last night it seems

Wendy, Brian and Savannah came by for a visit tonight. We haven't really seen them since they moved to North Carolina. For dinner we ate Bandana's, which is always good and played Catch Phrase. Catch Phrase is a lot of fun, it is just like the 20,000 pyramid but with no payday. Klondike. We got it, but what else is it besides an ice cream bar? To find out more, look below. Of course, Brian had a problem getting "juice". I said, "apple and oranges", "a drink that is squeezed", "you drink it", and "fruit, blank". I know, that is a REAL toughy. We had a lot of fun making fun of each other and the kids played real good together. It was also so nice outside Graham and I went out for a little bit and he swung on the swings and climbed around in his cozy coupe. Global warming is true!

We get to see Kelsi and family tomorrow. Woo-hoo! And I finally met with the scrapbookers and everything is a go. I just have to refine a couple of things and we are off and running. Remind myself, I have to resize some sheets, make a list of names for the new paper lines, and something else. Hopefully, I can find the sheet at work where I wrote this info. Oh yeah, I also need to enter my time. I hope to do that tomorrow. Oh fun!

Graham can say and define so many animals. If you say owl, he hoots. If you say cow, he moos. If you say dog, he kind of barks or ruffs. He roars at lion and lifts his arm at elephant. He says cat if you say cat, but he won't meow. He can baa, kind of bleat, and makes some attempt at a chirp. He will tell you what a duck is but he hasn't started quacking. I am sure it won't be long. Graham can also identify some people and things from TV shows and books. He says mama, dada and Chandler. What else? Many things. I am basically keeping track so I can remember later. I was thinking of starting him in on colors, numbers and letters. We need to get out the Sesame Street tapes and ye old flash cards.

Here is some info that might of helped us with Klondike. It is an ice cream bar (What would you do for a Klondike Bar?) and a solitaire game, both of which I knew. It is also the name of a famous Gold Rush which I am sad to say I don't remember from my history lessons. According to Wikipedia, "The Klondike Gold Rush was a frenzy of gold rush immigration to, and gold prospecting along, the Klondike River near Dawson City in the Yukon Territory, Canada, after gold was discovered in the late 19th century." I also found out that Klondike is a river, a mail and freight delivery business, known as Klondike Airways, and a mush trail in Canada. It is also a national park in Skagway Alaska which still has several of the buildings from the KGR. Any questions? Class dismissed.
