How dorky am I?

...enough to be excited that I finally got all of the state quarters?
...to take a picture of said collection?
...to arrange them roughly geographically?
...to post it on a blog?
...to point out that there are actually 52 quarters there (I didn't know that District and Territories were getting till today)?

Yes. THAT dorky.

Happy (Way) Belated Birthday to Lily

I try to post pics of b-day celebrations pretty quickly but we had a couple of mitigating factors.

1. My trusty old keyboard finally died. Most letters worked fine but the "1 Q A Z alt" diagonal was kaput. So needed to replace otherwise it would have came out "Hppy Birthdy Lily".

Just got a replacement and the a's are flowing.

2. Her final present only was purchased a couple weeks ago and might be her favorite ever.

Ever the creatures of habit, we did for Lily's big day what we did last year. Took her and a gaggle of friends to the Family Fun Fair at Ala Moana.







Here's a couple shots with presents
