Flat Robbie

Robbie came home from school awhile back and said he needed a family member or friends address to take to school. He said they would be writing a "friendly letter" and mailing it to this person. We talked about all of the awesome friends and family that we have and Rob finally decided on Aunt Carol. (Dan's sister) I wondered what he wrote to her, but life is going on and I forgot to ask him. The other day, Aunt Carol posted these awesome pictures on Facebook. When Robbie sent the letter he included a Flat Robbie, which Aunt Carol has taken with her to school and on the ferry. Completely Awesome. Check out the scarey ferry guy with Flat Robbie. Thanks Aunt Carol for posting these great pics.

Dale the Fish is Dead

Oh my the time has finally come and little Dale was not floating but hanging out between two rocks at the bottom of the bowl. Dan said I think the fish is dead and I said no way. So, I bumped the bowl and sure enough up he came floating to the top. Well, then came the decision making how do we handle this? Dan said I'll throw the whole bowl away and then we will be done with it all. I thought oh no we shouldn't do that because what if we want to get another one. So, my plan was to have Dan fish out the fish and Dan would not fish out the fish and I certainly would not do that. YUCK!! So the bowl sat for 2 days while we decided what to do him. The final decision came right before I had some friends over on Saturday. Dan wasn't home and I had not changed my mind about fishing so out went the entire bowl into the trash can. No long service for him, I thought briefly as I dropped him into the can "Sorry Dale." We have had the no more hamster experience and now no more fish!!!
