This morning Ben competed in the Special Olympics for the first time.  Overall he had a good time, and he even won a second place ribbon for his area.  Although he was a little reluctant at first, once the event got going he was actually interested in watching the other kids.  There were three events:  the free throw, the dribbling contest, and the passing contest.  According to his coach he did better at all three events than he had at practice in school, so that's pretty cool.  Overall it was well worth the time and effort, and he really seemed to enjoy himself.

Here is a photo gallery from this morning's event.

We have a new dog.  Her name is Aurora.  She looks like this:



You can see more pictures here in her photo gallery.

Just a general heads-up:  One of my favorite bands, Jim's Big Ego is playing a series of concerts in the Northwest next month.  If I was there, I would *so* be there.  So if you are open to a recommendation, go check them out on Wednesday, February 15th at Cafe Venus & Mars Bar.  You won't be dissappointed.  Be sure to ask them to play "You're an Asshole".
