This is many short videos spliced together from the last
herring opening. We were flying over the coast of Kruzof
Island looking for herring. Frank found a nice spot
(Shoals Beach I later discovered) to beach comb,
so we landed for 1/2 hour and browsed for glass balls.
It was a beautiful day, sunny and slightly warm. We found
washed up trash instead of glass balls and that the opener was
called while we were scouting. Whoops!
Off we flew to find fish and look out for other planes.

Herring Spotting & Plane Watching

Fishing for Herring at 3,000 ft.

It's hard to tell, but this is the herring fishery in action.

One more, my favorite.

Bort Bort Bort

We've recently rediscovered The Muppet Show. Yipee! It's great for movie night because of the adult humor mixed in with kid craziness. It cracks us all up. I highly recommend watching it again as an adult, and with children if possible.

Turn the volume waaaay up to hear it.

Fiona Turns 4

Kobi, Pete & I made Birthday balloons for Fiona's Birthday. We put small gifts inside for her to discover upon opening. They are made out of tissue paper and watered down glue. After drying, removing the balloon and inserting the gift, we added to pull cords. It was fun for us to make them and fun for Fiona and Jeremiah to open them.

Kobi and I also made dress-up wrist bands. They are perfect decoration for Fairies and Ballerinas. (as you can see on Fiona here) It was a great match with her dance shoes from her Grandma & Grandpa.

One of the first things Kobi does at Fiona's house and Esther's house is dress with them. This was his second outfit during the Birthday party.

If you look closely, Randy is wearing a short, skin tight wet suit for the occasion. He and Uncle Bill came dancing out to the living room half way through present opening. The kids sat there stunned and mouthes open for quite some time. Hilarious!

The Day Annan Learned to Crawl

This video is a little old, but we're learning how to embed video to this site. It's our test video. He learned to crawl about a month and half ago, I think. Anyway it's pretty cute. Enjoy.
