Lilie picked up on our most frequent use of the computer, as evidenced in this clip.

First off, yes she does (now) have an email address: Liliana.Buxton@gmail.com.

Secondly, we're not certain where she's picked up her southern twang (how can you pronounce the word 'that' in two syllables?).

Lastly, the funniest part of this clip is subtle. About forty seconds into it, she experiences a wardrobe failure. You'll have to crank the speakers to hear it, and even then you may not catch it all, so here's a transcript:

"Hold on... computer." Fiddles with shoe...

Quietly, to her toes as she squeezes them into the right places on her oversized flip-flops:

"Go that way... go that way. Go that way."

Apparently, coaching your toes does work...

Catching Up

It has been a long time and much has happened since I've had a chance to update the blog so this post covers some of the highlights of the last several months.  (There are lots of pictures so you may have to click on 'Older Posts' at the bottom to see more.)

Turns out I'm glad Jason didn't let me talk him into wearing *his* kilt for the ride. 
Boy, that would've been embarrassing if they'd shown up in the same outfit.
