Funny with Arduino

Arduino BoardKatie Beth and I are having fun learning about Arduino.  We have been making diodes blink and other fun things.  We purchased the Arduino Starter Kit, which had everything we needed to get a basic understanding of Arduino and the cool things we could make.

I think Katie Beth likes the results more the building process.

Visiting Hope’s New House

Canoe TripKaren, Katie Beth, and I headed over to Rome, Georgia to visit my sister and her family.  She gave us a tour of her school’s campus and showed us the K-8 school that she will be the directing.

Katie Beth had a blast seeing Hannah and Charlie.  Katie Beth experienced her first ride on a canoe.

After a bike ride and blackberry picking, we enjoyed some ice cream with our picked berries and homemade blackberry syrup.

Day with Charlie

Learning Band Loom

Band LoomCharlie taught Katie Beth how to use her band loom to make bracelets, while Karen and I chatted with Hope.

Hope was so excited about her new job and moving closer to home.
