Friday Fun Link – Calculate Your Reading Speed

MyReadSpeed.com is a site that allows you figure out your reading speed.

I tried on the sample from “Adventures of Huckleberry Finn” and got 523 words per minute.

Unfortunately, the site has no way to account for having two kids pestering you while you take the test! 😉

Saturday Snap – Good-Bye Aunt Sandi

For the past few years, my aunt has come to stay with us for a month or so in May.

She’s around for Pace’s birthday, helps watch the kids while we tackle some of our spring projects, uses our home as a base for visiting various friends from when she lived in Regina and otherwise helping to keep our house and kids in order.

It’s always lots of fun to have her here and sad when she has to go.  Here’s a pic from yesterday on our way to Viet Thai, one of her favourite Regina restaurants when she lived a couple blocks away in the Cathedral area.

Goodbye Aunt Sandi

Here are the full results for headtale.com.
