Dairy Queen!

This is such a blurry cell phone photo, but I felt obliged to share because it captures Libby's pure joy of eating Dairy Queen on a hot day:

London Pic Set: Buildings

Here is the third London pic set, and it's so very exciting: buildings (snark, snark). Truth be told, I love looking at the architecture of places where we travel and London did not disappoint:


Note: in case you're feeling out of the loop on famous London sights, that random picture of The Swan in Staines is just a pub where my family used to eat when we lived there. Nothing exceptional, but they do make a great shepard's pie.

Obama and Kid in Oval Office

I was glancing through some pictures from Obama's first 167 days - good stuff all around, but this picture seized me and would not let go. What a wonderful moment for this kid (and, I would imagine, a whole subset of kids across the nation):
