Off to Cambodia
The Mayor is off to Cambodia, so there will be no posts until he returns in July. The Mayor will miss the hobbit wife and the hobbitlings greatly, but he will have lots of pictures and stories when he returns July 6th.

Big Weekend
This is a long post, but that simply corresponds with the busy week/weekend this has been. Things started out with the Mayor's brother coming into town to stay at Michael Delving for a week. Here is Uncle Andrew and the Magician's Nephew.
Uncle Andrew and the Magician's Nephew checking out the trackoes, bulldozers, and other diggers at Northgate.
And here is Uncle Andrew, attempting to evangelize Boookie into the Apple way.
Here's Ela modeling her adorable "flower sleeper."
We went on another excursion down to U-Village to let Boookie play in the fountains.
The frog and turtle fountain is on a timer, which surprises Boookie every time.
Here he is, soaking wet after about 15 minutes of playing in the fountain. Everyone who walked by seemed to have one of two comments - "Do you know he's getting wet?" and "Do you have a change of clothes for him?" It is nice to know we live somewhere where people are so astute and know just what we should do as parents!
The Mayor's parents and sister got to meet the little hobbitling girl on Friday. Here is Grammy with the little girl.
Here's Grammy enjoying her grandhobbits.
Boookie was thrilled to pretend-drive the Mustang that Grampz got from the rental company. The Mayor was less thrilled when he got to real-drive the Mustang. However, the Mayor is now able to completely remove the Mustang from his cool car list.
The Mayor's brothers and sister were successful in teaching Boookie how to do "Earmuffs."
On Sunday, most of the family went to church up at Crosspoint Lynnwood. Boookie was excited to walk into Church with Grammy, Grampz, and Auntie Alexis (or as he calls her, "Auntie Sexist")
After church, we all went down to Lakewood to celebrate Uncle Matty's and great-Grandpa's birthday. This year, they celebrated 111 years (21 for Matt and 90 for great-Grandpa). Here are some pictures from the gathering.
Here's great Uncle Dan. Boookie loved the slinky, but he did not enjoy being picked up.
Here's the birthday boys, getting ready to blow out their candles.
And here's the paparazzi.

Warm weather pictures
We here at Michael Delving have been enjoying the recent warm weather. The Mayor purchased a kiddie pool for the hobbitling boy. You can see him enjoying it below. The pool was left filled overnight, and this morning as he was eating breakfast, he exclaimed "Raccoon!" Sure enough, there was a raccoon taking a bath in his kiddie pool, daintily washing its shoulders and back. Boookie, with a worried voice asked, "Please, frogs!?" Apparently, he was worried that the rascally 'coon would make off with his pool toys!
The hobbitling lass is growing and just being cute, as illustrated below.
Here she is with her floppy hat, looking for all the world like the "Flying Nun"
The whole residence took an excursion down to U-Village to play in the fountains and go to Starbucks.
