Can't make "comment" work

Let my kids stay up too late trying to add my comment to the Bu Birthday Video. So now, it's a post:

Devin, Kelsey and Alex stole the show with their synchronized swaying--to the beat, even. But Kelsey loses points for NOT singing. Jacob definitely looks dead so y'all don't need to pretend anymore to spare me the sorrow, the jig is up, I figured it out. I just think if you didn't want me to know you could've put him in the back. And I can't wait for Coleen to accept her Grammy so we hear that statement across the airwaves! I wish we could bottle Stephen and Whitney's smiles. Special kudos to Stephanie for working so hard to get all the names.

Murray August Review

August was a lovely "end of summer" month! Here are pictures from the Mt. Rainier camping trip, and Gavin and Madeline flying in the airplane over Orcas Island (a member of the ward on Orcas offered them a ride!)

Happy 81st Birthday Grandma Bu

To remind Bu of her greatest achievement, Coleen organized some local cousins into presenting the newest addition of "The Cousin Song."

Bu Coke Dumpsters

Bu found this fake coke can for hiding stuff.  Since my name (schipper) was on it she passed it on to me.  I left it in the car.  Jo looks at it, inspects it, decides its a really old can and throws it away at a convenience store.  I go to the store, go through their dumpster and find it (and one other little treasure for my classroom).
