Fun with ruins

Posted by Tim 18 August 2009 1 comments

We have so many great ruins of ancient times here in the Middle East. While we were living in Egypt we got this great shot of Landon. We were at the Step-Pyramids and were allowed to touch pretty much anything. How cute is this? He was just over 2 years old, still in diapers, and playing on the ruins of 5,000 year-old Egyptian ruins!

In Rome, you can walk around and see the ruins... in our part of the world you can climb on them!

Whoa there Landon! Calm down!

































































This is Jojo in his "cowboy hat".

















We've been using VOIP (Voice Over Internet Protocol) with Vonage deal since April 2004. It worked when we brought it overseas and hooked it up to the DSL and everything! We've loved it and Vonage has always been great.




It was with hesitancy that I made the switch from Vonage to Ooma. Ooma is just like Vonage in that you hook a box up to high speed internet and hook a phone up and blam-o you have a US phone number. The difference is that with Ooma you pay a larger up front cost for the hardware (215 USD) and after that you can either use their basic services for no monthly payments or upgrade to the premiere service for 99 USD a year. I made the switch and even got to keep my phone number. One other thing I love about Ooma is that you can get your voicemail by email or online (like vonage) but there is also play controls right on the box with a speaker. Much easier!

Want to call us? Write me an email and I'll send you our phone number!
