the ruby is in eugene with her mimi and papa wilbanks. we have talked to her on the phone and she says hi mama. hi daddy. it is so good to hear her little voice realizing we are on the other end of the phone. smart girl getting smarter each day!

i've got a call in with our insurance company to get the windshield of our honda accord replaced. it has a crack that runs along the entire width of the front windshield... damn rocks flying up from the freeway... at any rate, our insurance company is calling around to places near our home zipcode and will be calling back with quotes, etc. i'm hoping some of them have special offers of paying for part of you deductible. either way, it is important to fix the windshield and restore the integrity of it so that we have the safest glass between us and all those bugs and birds while driving!...

ruby is heading to eugene today with her mimi and papa for a few days. they watch her for us every other week. sometimes they come to portland and watch her, other times-take her to eugene.. then she can see her two great grandmothers... her gg's.... we are hoping to make a trip to southdakota in 2006 so ruby can see her other gg. the one she shares her first name with. i think the trips to eugene with mimi and papa will help the transition for ruby while we are in boston/nyc... it'll probably end up being harder for us then her to be gone for that long of time. at any rate... gotta go now
amy and i are going to boston/nyc in 6weeks. time is flying by. i remember when we first thought about this trip and how far off it felt. 6weeks is nothing. we are excited because we love traveling and checking out new things. we are going to see monty python's spamalot on broadway. i think that will be quite a fun time. we will be in boston for my birthday so that'll be some more very fun times. ruby will stay wtih amy's mom and dad in eugene and we will miss her very very very very much but we are looking forward to some alone time away from our work lives, etc... i think when we travel we truly enjoy just being alive. heck, if we won a super lottery we would travel for quite some time as a family for sure. the world is to big to just stay in one spot. lots of people do it because that is all they know . i wish all people could travel and experience all places in the world. maybe then we could all just get along.
