Catching up, once again.

Dear Whimsy Readers,

Yet again time has passed by and here we are, two months later, finally posting about the happenings around these parts.

Of course, March ended with a bash-- a birthday bash that is-- for the one and only Miles Fitzgerald Stevens. Yes, that big chunky monkey turned one on March 27, 2009, and celebrated with a make-your-own cupcake fest. He needed no persuading to devour his caterpillar cake in ten minutes flat, which was followed by a huge power surge and then the inevitable sugar low ... crash.

Emily graduates from nursing school on Thursday, and she would like to sleep for a month straight after passing her boards. If anyone knows how to make this possible, please don't hesitate to contact her.

Drew has been back on the bike and exploring the gorge and local islands on two wheels.

Saba is still a ball of energy and likes to expend it tracking a Frisbee through the air and chasing both real and imagined cats.

And now, some photos for our determined readers:
