Flashback!

Hey everybody! While Mom was digging through Dad's laptop, she found an old video that was only on his. In the old video, Katelyn just turned three years old and is being her innocent three-year-old self. I put this up because Mom thought it would be a good idea and it earned Katelyn's seal of approval.

Here it is.


Kind of funny, right? She was very cute back then. Just a quick blog post today.

A Blog Post!

Happy Birthday! But wait, who's birthday is it? Not mine, not Katelyn's, not Dad's, not Mom's . . . not Toby's either. It's the birthday of the Barbour Blog! Technically, it's birthday was six days ago on the 31st, but we're celebrating it anyway.

First order of business: New Poll of the Month . . . Deploying . . . Done.

Now that that's over with, it was actually the Poll of the Month that inspired me to do this blog post. The lack of buzz of my last one means that not very many people come here very often probably because I'm so bad about updating it now. Without further ado, the blog post!

Halloween was a blast for us! For starters, I had a great costume. A mad scientist!


At Uni, all 320 or so students got to participate in the costume contest where we got to wear our costumes to school and have a competition for the best costume by popular vote. I made it past round two. The first place winer was a Prox Card, which is the key each student is given to get into the building. Second place was a beekeeper and third place was a zombie teacher.

This halloween was the first one where I didn't go trick or treating. Instead, I did something I would much rather do. See, the previous day, Dad and I build a radio controlled spider out of an old monster truck we found in the garage. A few hours of work later, it turned out pretty nice!


On halloween night, I put my mad scientist costume on and slipped into the shadows. I would put the spider at the front of the driveway where nobody would see it (after we pulled the car out) and when anybody walked up, I would drive it at full speed to scare them! Most of the people who saw it got a kick out of it, and it was a very fun night for me.

I hope to make another post soon!
