I cannot believe I have been away since last Tuesday....Last week was not that busy...guess I will need to make it up this week.
Taylor came home on Saturday! Yeah! She was away for 9 days in Washington DC on a leadership seminar. They spent a bunch of time sight seeing... If T gets off her lazy writing hand....you may be able to catch her thoughts on her new blog It's funny how teenagers can go 24 hours with their buddies, but God forbid they stay up a few extra minutes to talk to the people who pay for the trip. Yes we have all turned into our parents!!
This weekend Chris and I thought we would set up an outdoor theater. We used the extra projector from my office. We bought a kin size sheet and a bunch of rivet things. We had some PVC Pipes hanging around and in a few hours had the whole thing set up. We watched Martian Child. The movie was not that great and the little boy in the movie could not of mumbled more....but we had fun.
A couple of things about an outdoor theater....
First, the projector really does not matter....the one we have has only a composite video output (lowest quality) and the picture was outstanding....for a bed sheet!
2nd...Sound...we have a portable PA system....it worked great except for the fact that yo0u are outside at 9 or 10 o'clock blasting the sound.....better invite the neighbors to the screening.
Lastly....it's a neat thing to do....but when it's over you need to hump all the stuff inside....nothing like just stumbling into bed!
