Raising Rank

Over the weekend I played a couple games of go and i raised up in rank to 21kyu. For those unfamiliar with go ranks it goes from 30 kyu to 1 kyu, then 1 dan to 9 dan. The dan ranks are professional players, 10k-1k is considered advanced amateurs, 20k-10k are intermediate, and 20k-30k are beginners.

There is so much to this game, its wonderful. Every time I play I learn something new.

Saturday Carnival


So, the day after her birthday, AJ went to the carnival with her dahee and me. She got her face painted and got to ride several rides, including going on the Ferris wheel with me. That's where I got the great shot. She had fun, I got a tan, and all of us got to get out of the house for a while. It was wonderful.

AJ Birthday


So Friday was AJs birthday. She didn't get to miss school because we planned a party at Peter Piper for Saturday. It was fantastic. Several kids showed up. Some from dance and some from school. All the kids had a blast and Anna brought home more than enough stuff. She has slowly been going through things playing with one thing or another. Anyway, here is a great shot of the birthday girl.
