We are getting close to the end of school and the kids are good and ready. Everything smells end-of-schooly: they're wrapping up, putting on the end of year theater plays, having water play days.

Lucie is also wrapping up her job at Spore and eagerly anticipating going to France in a few weeks.

Dean is hard at work at his new job, which he enjoys, but it doesn't smell so summer vacation-ey.

Nana made a whirlwind visit this weekend and we had a fine time at the Maker Faire. Do you know that she's done more than 230 geocaches since we introduced her to it in February? The student has truly become the master.
