soccer

then rob joined in the game and all those little guys got so excited: ooh look - a dad, a dad!
his team mates even jumped up and tackled him - no, that is not bosco in the picture below :)

puzzle

on sunday, while melanie is visiting, we start a puzzle. 1500 pieces.
we get the border completed before she has to leave. then it's me, rob, pepper, and what soon becomes that-damned-puzzle

here's wednesday and thursday

friday and saturday (thanks to guest puzzler jenny)

sunday morning, and sunday evening (thanks to pina coladas)
 
and finally, at 1:30am on a tuesday morning, we finish the darn thing. 1000 is a fine enough number; i'm never doing 1500 again!

back home and back into our routines :)
fierce finishes the 5th harry potter... which is good because pepper bought him the 6th for his BDay
