back, again

It seems like its time to get back on the blog wagon after an extended period of not posting or picture-only posting. It would be convenient to say that I've been neglecting the web because I've been so busy in real life with the kids and other summer activities, but that would be a lie. Most of my online time has recently instead been devoted to playing online Boggle with Sarah and Julie.

So let's try this again, now that my 12 week summer vacation is down to it's final two weeks (how did that happen??). Last week, after a fabulous 4 day vacation to Cape Cod with Christian and his boys (more on that at a later date (but not too much later I promise)) our friend Nancy came to visit with her son Ousmane. It's been a long time since we've seen Nancy (since they were living in Virginia and we were still stationed in DC), and it was great to catch up over a couple days. Here's a picture of us and Ousmane. AJ's trying to stab the camera with my tape measure.
