A note from the writers

Blogger seems to be having some trouble with its videos. They've been uploaded correctly and will run sometimes. If you can't see them now, come back another time and try again. It's totally a game of chance to get them to run. If anyone out there has a fix, I'd love to hear about it. Thanks!

Handy Man

Ava and I are pretty lucky to have a live-in handy man. Matt's knack-ish tendencies come in really handy when, say, we want speakers wired for our stereo outside and, oh yeah, we want them on a switch inside. Matt spent one Saturday afternoon recently doing just that for us. Now when we go swimming, we have tunes to keep the party flowing from inside to outside. These electrical skills are going to be put to good use again soon as he wires the new light for Ava's room. We love our handy man!

Here he is hard at work trying not to solder his finger off...


And here's the fabulous finished project...


And don't think that Ava and I don't help while Matt's working his magic. We're right there...snuggling and napping because the work is exhausting!
