Weird reading list

Halmoni recently sent us an old summer reading list that M put together before her senior year in high school, and it was pretty weird (lots of Greek tragedies). M thinks the boys have pretty weird reading habits themselves. Here is a list of the books she ordered for them in Amazon in 2025 (doesn't even include all the strange books they forced her to buy at the college bookstores they visited). Can you guess which boy ordered which book?

Finnegan's birthday

Since we know Finnegan's birthday is November 15, we threw him a little shark-themed birthday party. H has always claimed that Finnegan wasn't going to be born until November 15, so we set his birthday to 0.

California Part 3

We visited two colleges near San Francisco, then dropped D off at the airport to go back to work. Then we headed to Socal, where we visited two more colleges, went to Ventura Pier, and braved Magic Mountain Fright Fest before heading back home.
