more updates, and cute

So much for catching you up!  Here I am again.

In June, Evan's wedding was a big deal.  I was delighted to join in on celebrating that special day.

Teaching teachers is always good fun.  I did that.  And then there was July.  We spent a lot of it in Houma, helping out with Donna and Jeffery's Kitchen, and then also redoing a bathroom to be more accomodating at the end of the month.  It was fun.

I took an assistant principal position across town, actually in Katy, which is just west of Houston.  So we moved.  We found a charming country home in Richmond, which is a nice little drive to work (20 min).  We collected all of our belongings and moved them, and lately we've been spending many hours unpacking our treasured and not so treasured things.

Orry will come to school with me--our school is K-9.  He is excited about 1st grade.  I don't know what he's going to learn though--he already knows it all, just like me.  At home we're going to focus on piano and astronomy along with the usual.

Isaac is going to have a big year at home with mommy.  There are dozens of toads and geckos, dragonflies and butterflies to count.  There are flowers to plant.  Letters to read.  Dirt to play in.

Annie too.  She can tell you anything.  It might be hard for you to understand her, but we can translate.  We have bunk beds now.  They like to climb on them and play "firetruck".  Annie wants help when she climbs, and she asks for it, but "climb" sounds like "fwine".  Her r-vowels she uses dipthongs so that "more" sounds a little like "moy".  It's cute, and so is her face.
