Martin Luther King Day - Lowell Observatory



On MLK Day the boys and Elise got a chance to visit Lowell Observatory. The observatory is where Clyde Tombaugh discovered Pluto, which recently was downgraded from a "planet" to "dwarf planet." Nonetheless, in Flagstaff we still count it as the ninth planet.

How are we going to fit one more child into our house?


We were wondering with Elise expecting a new baby how we would fit all the 5 children in our 3 bedroom house. It looks like the boys have figured it out! They made a quadruple bunk bed out of one of their closets. They are very clever.

Looks like a fun time. I still think Pluto's a planet, too, but I'm from Flagstaff so that probably doesn't help things.

I wish you luck. Your little girl is going to be one tough cookie with four older brothers.

That is smart thinking on the kid's part

The picture of the boys in the closet is HILARIOUS!

I bet it is hard to think of what to do with kids in a 3 bedroom house. Such is the cost of living here, but I feel ya--and I'm only thinking of 3 kids!
