Another great week...

We are so fortunate…the good times just keep on coming. This week it was the school carnival, Thanksgiving dinner at “The Farm,” the Veterans assembly, parent/teacher conferences, the first and only home volleyball game of the year, (Yes, we won!) and our major purchase of Alaskan tennis shoes, a rainy weather must.

The rain and wind has been awful. This week is the only time I really wish we had our car up here. When ever we go out of the house our jeans get drenched from top to bottom. I am going to have to break out the rain pants. The clouds cleared on Thursday morning, just in time for me steal a picture of the setting full moon. It is moments like that, that I wish I had a really good camera, perhaps I could have ended up with something much better than a dot on the horizon.


Steve is biding his time in Anchorage with all-day in meetings. As sad as that sounds, he unabashedly tells me about all the restaurant food he is eating and about feeling obligated to go see a movie with the staff…he tries to make it sound very “ho-hum,” but I don’t buy it for a minute. Andrew and I, both miss him terribly…thankfully, he will be home the 22nd :)

Speaking of home….It won’t be long before we are in Medford for a visit. Andrew and I are coming back December 12th. This will give us week to spend with family and friends before Andrew’s dad picks him up for the holidays on the 19th. Steve is done with school on the 19th and will fly in on the 20th. We are so looking forward to getting back to the “big city.”

Thanks again for reading…we wish you all a beautiful week!
