CSS is no match for me!

You may have noticed that my sidebar has been busted for the past several months. That’s because I started editing the stylesheet without actually knowing what I was doing. Then I couldn’t figure out what I’d done to break it. Oops!

Welp, I finally got tired of looking at my ugly mistake and decided to figure out this little CSS issue. I was pleasantly surprised that it only took this CSS n00b about an hour to diagnose and fix the problem all by myself. Tanner was quite proud.

I found a couple of other problems with my sidebar as well, and Tanner helped me diagnose and fix those. There’s still an overflow issue somewhere but I’ll have to figure that out later.

And, just so we’re clear, I’m in no way saying I know CSS – just that I understand it a lot more and it’s not so scary after all!

Carson Family Fourth of July

Confession: I was drinking (more than a) few beers while snapping these photos.

Translation: They’re not that good.

Jack & James' favorite firework.

But, my family and I had a great weekend despite the rain, and I hope you and yours did, too.

Jack thought the gunpowder smelled bad.

We did our part to make the countryside sound like a battleground.

Nick is a pyromaniac.

Actually, I should say Nick did his part.  He’s a little obsessed with fireworks.

Ein gets stuck in the cat door at Dad's house.

Ein, however, is not a fan of fireworks, or gunfire for that matter.  He chose to stay inside, using the cat door as a window to see what was going on.
