Balloon Boy
As mentioned before, here we see Ian as he prepares to embark on his Trans-Atlantic flight. His grandmother stands in the background, looking both proud and concerned. Not pictured: his father, who at the time was enjoying a piece of homemade pound cake with chocolate frosting.
If you're curious, Ian's shirt says "Big Trouble in a Little Shirt," beside a picture of a Tyrannosaurus Rex. Could also be Godzilla, but I'm pretty sure it's a T-Rex.
My Uncle David took that picture, along with countless others. He also took a pretty good one of me, Lisa, and Ian. We look positively all-American. Perhaps he has some special lens filter.
Still keeping up with the dare. Yesterday: 347 words. Today: 516. Momentum, baby!

"Big Trouble in a Little Shirt" is the most awesome t-shirt slogan.
And you three are a fine-looking family.
And go you on the dare!
And, finally, I like cake.

Ian's starting to look like a little boy instead of a toddler. Have I mentioned just how adorable I think he is?
And - great pic of the 3 of you!
