Jake has decided to attend Washington State University. It's in Pullman, Washington. He'll major in music. Go, cougars!

The Bookman Cometh!

We all went to Pullman this past Wednesday so that Jake could look around at Washington State University--Wazzu for short. The Bookman statue is in front of the library there. (That may not be the actual title of the statue.) I liked the Bookman. Marissa--not so much. Jake's favorite thing about Wazzu is probably the Student Recreation Center; it has a big, fabulous weight room. Everyone please cross your fingers that WSU decides to give Jake a talent scholarship. The other possibility is the University of Montana (UM) in Missoula, Montana. Am I really old enough to have a child going to college? That does not seem quite right.

We found Oscar's trash can....Olivia did not like it at all. Needless to say after being at the Children's Museum I was feeling more like Oscar the Grouch. The place was extremely overcrowded. I was really dissappointed at how many people they let in there. We hardly got to do anything at all.

Livi is a shopper....that girl knows what she wants. In fact she asked if we needed potatoes so Mason could make fries.

After lunch we did a little retail therapy. We went to Urban Outfitters which is a store that does two things for me....one it's make me feel old as hell...and two it makes me feel fatter than I am. This pictures says it all...Salem and Livi look darling but they are 3 and 5 and neither of them weigh over 40 pounds...
