Random Update

Hi everyone,

As Ryan will definitely confirm, I am procrastinating writing a paper so I figured I would post an update. This past weekend my friend(& old neighbor) Chris came to visit. We hung out and the guys got to watch and talk sports which I think Ryan really enjoyed. I like and understand sports but when you start talking ERAs and RBIs for some random team's random player I am not the best conversationalist--nor do I really try to be. Saturday Ryan needed to study and his leg was still bothering him so Chris and I left him behind and went to see all of the monuments down on the Mall. I need to get my tourist legs back--I was tired! It was probably a good thing Ryan didn't join us since now we know his leg has been broken this whole time since the ski accident! It was fun to do some touristy things that we haven't done for several months and to have a visitor--we LOVE visitors (**hint hint**)! :)

I'm glad y'all enjoyed our tulip pictures. Ryan brought them back from Amsterdam for me last summer so we were excited all year to have them bloom. The weather was nice enough that we got to eat dinner out on the balcony to enjoy them several nights before it got cold again. This weekend we planted some of our herbs and added another planter so we can have even more! We have a few spots left to fill.

So I was thinking about the day that Gracie (Ryan's niece) made Uncle Ryan draw airplanes over and over again (I personally think they looked more like whales than airplanes :) ) and that reminded me that we never posted a video we took while at Gravelly Park. It's the park we always go to by the airport, but the other weekend we got stir crazy while studying and took a quick break to go watch some planes land. So here is the video so you guys can see how close the planes come.
