Beware the VELOCIRAPTOR!

After a delightful train trip, we made it to Boston. My sister Hayley lives there right now in the cutest little apartment. How little is it? Well, I'll put it this way: she can swiffer the entire place from her bed. But seriously, her room is art. Every piece of it. 


 Hayley painted both of these paintings and they are awesome. I think she should open an etsy store. Don't you agree? 
I love Hayley's bulletin board. It's such a glimpse into her mind and what a beautiful mind it is.

Now, when we all get together, we get a little punchy and we had a lot of fun taking pictures in Boston. These pics are from the front stoop of Hayley's building.

Some are lovely:



And some feature our new favorite pose, one that I have titled the "velociraptor." Now, I saw Jurassic Park when I was nine and seriously, not a day goes by that I don't think about, quote, or watch it. It's one of those movies for me. Here are the key lessons of Jurassic Park: nature will find a way, Jeff Goldblum is the man, velociraptors are the most brilliant and terrifying creatures the world has ever known. Velociraptors are the serial killers of the dinosaur world and they can open doors. They can come out of nowhere. They will find a way...to kill you. So, in closing, I give you our version of the "velociraptor."

 "Gee, I hope there are no velociraptors around."
 "I hate velociraptors."
 "Life you are too wonderful."
 "I'm complacent."
"VELOCIRAPTOR!!!!!!!"

 Take a look at this highly informative cartoon by XKCD of how to find out if your home is prepared for a velociraptor attack. This could save lives people!
