Maker Faire and more

Well, I've noticed that it's been awhile since we've blogged about life around here. We've been busy people the last few weeks so I'll try to get caught up around here. Though, there are still a lot of pictures that haven't been downloaded yet and for that, I need to finish unpacking and locate the camera.

We'll start with some pics from Maker Faire Detroit which delayed our Interlochen camping trip a day, but definitely worth it!

Mason's friend. He had a grand time chasing after/tormenting this robot.


Grandpa (The shorter one)


Water swings that Kevin and Colby tried out.


After swinging...


One of the cool vehicles traveling around. This one occassionally shot out fire. Sadly, they weren't letting faire-ers ride this one. Though we did get to ride a 6-person bike. That was fun. I think we need one of those, maybe after we get a bigger garage.


We also did some tie-dying before vaca.




I've also been working on a quilt for Colby. I'm currently hand quilting it in my spare time. Here are some pics of what the top looks like.



Also, for those of you that haven't heard... I have a job on 8C at UM. It's a med-surg floor and I start orientation next week. I also finally got a reply back from my OR interview (5 weeks later!!) but I turned them down. I think the 8C will work out better in the long run and I look forward to having actual patient care/interaction. This new job is working nights... we'll see how that works out. =)
