We all got to talk to him while we were in California. It was fun to hear his voice. He is just as excited and enthusiastic about EVERYTHING as ever.


Krista Talking to him through the microphone. Ryan and Brandon listening.

Kylie...holding Kamryn's toy...but listening to the conversation just the same! :)
On Mother's Day, we could barely hear him as we talked to him. We had to strain through the mumbling! So, Dad decided to try to call through Skype this time. It worked MUCH better! We could hear him perfectly through the speakers and he could hear us for the most part. The Microphone we had was a little "iffy" at times, so Dad may look into getting a better one for this upcoming May.
Eric got a little emotional at times, when hearing how much older Austin and Ryan sound, and when he found out that Kelsey wasn't here to talk to him once again. (She had to work on Mother's Day and then she was spending Christmas with Zac's family this year). However, we figured out a way for him to talk to her! He was so excited! We called Kelsey on Ryan's work phone, and turned on the speaker phone. We held the microphone to that phone for her to talk, and then she heard him through the speaker! It was very cool.
Then, because that worked, we thought maybe we could get Grandma and Papa Moe on the phone in the same way. Here's a shot of the set up! :)

I had to capture the moment ... it is amazing how much technology we have at our disposal to communicate with people anywhere in the world!

Ryan, by the end of the conversation! :) (If you turn this photo upward, he kinda resembles Edward from Twilight... WEIRD!)! :)

Kamryn, enjoying her newfound "hut" under the high chair! (not sure what she is doing with her binkie...but whatever!)
It was a very fun hour! :)
