We went out on the boat today. Unfortunatlly it wasn't really windy enough to even put up the sails. We had a lot of fun, but it would have been better sailing. It was pretty cold at times, but not terribly. I took a ton of pictures for
I woke up at like 945. It was a bit late, especially because I was in bed so early, but I needed it. When I finally got up I started making breakfast and got a text from my dad. We were supposed to go over for breakfast. We threw on
My Arduino project is coming along. I did need to order a new arduino board as my micro isn't working. I read up on tech specs for my encoder, and think I have a good plan to get everything together. If I can get everything working, I may
A few years ago I created a project that took a rotary encoder and would use a windvane to give me relative wind direction. I got it working ok, but I am going to revive the project. I am coming up with a plan of attack and may even create
Mark finished his Math test today. He seemed much more relaxed that yesterday once he was done with it. He thinks he did pretty good. He has the concepts down I'm really proud of him. Nikki worked in Salt Lake today,, so I picked up the kids at

We finally have all our Christmas lights put away. It took all day, and it was freezing cold. I didn't even realize how cold or tired I was till I was done. We started at about 1230 and finished up at about 5:30. I immediately came inside
Today I didn't do much. Nikki went on a date night with Sarah, and I stayed home with Warren. I did go to the gym this morning where I absolutely crushed my workout. I had a 15 minute run, but it was feeling pretty good so I did
I got a phone call from Nikki on the way home from work today. Warren had told Grandma that they were supposed to watch Mr. Beast tonight, and so he had gone out with them for dinner. We decided to take Mark to Red Fort, our favorite Indian food place.
Mark is doing great in his math homework, he is really nailing it. We have been working really hard everynight to make sure he is ready to go in and learn the material the next day. The teacher is great enough to allow us to do the class work the
