Tech Savvy



Sarah got a pink laptop for Christmas this year. It was the one thing she asked for. We kind of debated the cost but decided we would rather spend the money on it rather than toys that would not last. Mike shopped Dell for the refurbished items and found a good deal. Pink of course costs more than the exact same thing in black. Fast forward a few weeks, the kid is making movies and doing things I can't even explain. She is talking to Mike about downloading software and tweaking the settings to personalize it. Her screen image is a collection of Chihuahua photos she has arranged. She is researching sign language practicing the hand moves. Mike and I are just looking at each other. Who knew? She will probably be sending you all movies to your email boxes soon. She is also pictured here getting ready for pajama day at school. Her class won a pj party and a movie. The picture does not reflect how incredibly slooooow she was moving that morning. I think it is a preview of the things to come as we near the preteen years. She is working very hard to get her back handspring perfected at gymnastics. We switched to a new gym in January. Her focus is now tumble only. I haven't asked them yet if I can come in with a camera. I would love to get her mid air with out a spotter.

The scrapbook page is one from our beach trip last summer. I wanted to do a layout with just pictures of the Ayres family. I love the neutral brown cardstock with the beach colors. I subbed at ALC Friday. They are gearing up for a Special Olympics event in February. I think I will take my camera and see what shots I can get. They are serious ping pong players at ALC. I can manage a few minutes of it. They follow the rules strictly and run out of patience with me fast.
