House Hunting






Hello.
We are house hunting.
We just put an offer on a house.
Here are a few specs.
3 bedrooms - 1.5 baths - hardwood floors under the carpet - 2 car garage - 1500+ square footage upstairs - "unfinished" basement - .469 acres
When looking at the back patio I've marked a crack in the retaining wall. Dad, let me know what you think.....since you're the only one contributing to this blog.

HYPERLINKS

Hello out there,
Does anyone know how to set up hyperlinks using blogger? I obviously don't know how to do it, that's why you have URLs listed for my piece on NPR.
Feedback would be great.
Ciao

NPR

We love NPR. (Jon and I)
You should love it too.
Here is the URL for a great piece on NPR. www.npr.org/templates/story/story

My all time favorite piece on NPR that everyone should listen to, in its entirety is: http://www.npr.org/templates/story

Seriously, the second one is a MUST!
Ciao

Blogs

I'm new to Blogs....recently I've started reading a few blogs of people I know. Each blog has it's own format. I'm not sure which format I'm going to use..... one i've seen doesn't use any caps or much punctuation. i think that'd be a good format for me since i stink at all that stuff. however, i think that it's almost harder to write without caps, also what would that do to my horrible spelling/grammer/punctuation prob?

If you'd like to read a much better blog than mine go to my friend Jen's blog (www.jenslog.com). She writes about all sorts of cool things. She has a lot of great thoughts.

My question with blogs is......Pratt is crying....gotta' run.

Some pics of our trip to NYC & DC








We took a week long trip to NYC, DC and Colonial Williamsburg. We had such a great time! It was fun to see old friends in NY, and hang out in the city. We had some fantastic food and enjoyed some great conversations.
All in all, it was great! Pratt is a superstar traveler - he loves being outside, and he loved his stroller.

Here are a few pics:
Pratt is sitting on a colonial saddle
Pratt is exhaused in the stroller.
Pratt is in NYC with me.
Pratt is at Lincoln Memorial with me.
Pratt has sunglasses on - mall DC.

Homearama




Tonight Jon and I (and Pratt) attended "Homearama"
It was underwhelming. TOO much of the same thing.....lots of golden frames on golden walls.
The exteriors of the homes were gorgeous, as you can see. I just didn't like the interior decorators.
Pratt took a picture next to a Jaguar.....two of mom's favorite things - a Jag, and Pratt.
My favorite thing was dreaming of laying down in this shower. I just love to rest in the shower....and I could totally do that here.

Overall, it would be fun to live in one of these houses if you never wanted to actually see the other people you live with.

NOT Jon's Blog

This blog is NOT Jon's blog!

Because of this you can expect:
1. Imperfect/poor photos.
2. Poor speling. (teaching beginning writers will really mess you up in this dept.)
3. Poor design.
4. Lack of all creativity.
5. No cool FLASH effects.
6. Any pressue to make this super great - you only have that pressure when you're a finicky artist.

In the mean time, Jon's telling me.....
"This is your first post, so make it good."

As it turns out - I might actually have some pressure after all.
