See? There's no problem.

Once Grandma and Grandpa's new business was cleared off the table and put away, I started showing everyone how to fold the little silver slips of paper into birds. I figured that it would be better to keep it simple and have everyone fold the same animal.

With so many people, it went pretty quickly. Grandma and Grandpa had a hard time of it, but Dad and Sam did pretty well, and we even convinced Joe to put down his book and come over and help us. We were getting close to the end of our pile of papers when a knock came at the door.

Sam went and answered the door. From the kitchen I could just barely see that it was Rex and his little brother Jared.

Okay, so my family is wacky and maybe a little dysfunctional...

Please see my new Main Street Plaza post: How I came to sympathize with the Mormons. It's a lighter look at what happens after you graduate from BYU. :D

Technical difficulties & rss warning...

Way back when I started blogging, I'd gotten into the habit of hosting all the images on a separate webservice and just linking to them. Well, that service seems to have gone down a couple of weeks ago, and my usual system of "just wait until it comes back up" isn't working. We can't seem to track down the contact info and passwords, so it might just be time to say goodbye to that service. So over the next few days I'll be editing old posts to add the images back to them. I expect this will send them back through the RSS feed, so subscribers -- prepare for some re-runs. ;^)
