Well, as if being married to a scientist didn't put us at the top of the geek squad, now thanks to Ben and Mandi, our family is obsessed with "birding"! Break out the pocket protecters, no more holding back... We love our new hobby! It does take us a bit longer to get anywhere because we are always spotting birds along the road, or taking detours to some stinky marsh land, but it has been well worth it! Tanner has now seen over 100 birds! He is getting pretty good (much better than me) at being able to identify birds where ever we go. I am so happy that he cares about something besides sports! Thanks Ben and Mandi!!! I think we are heading in the wrong direction though. I was hoping that I could help my husband be a little cooler, now I find him even being less social because in mid conversation with people he will be looking for birds and whip out his binoculars, in hopes of a new sighting!! Ben get your web page launched fast so at least we will look a little cool because we are in the know about your sweet page!!!!

the pictures look awesome! can you believe how sweet the 50 mm is!? Sorry about your new dork status! Believe me, when Ryan gets the harness for his binocks it only gets worse. One time we were at a park and people were full on snearing at ben because of his harness. Not cool!
Jenny you crack me up...you really do.
I love that you are brid watchers, that is sweet! The pictures are amazing! I really love the one of Abbs drawing in the sand.
