Wow! It seems like you turn around, and you’ve missed 4 months of blog updates! Well, no time like the present for a new update! Perhaps most importantly, Gretchen’s leg is better – she’s well enough that she’s playing soccer again.
We’ve been busy. Very briefly, since the last update, we’ve:
- attended the Meach family reunion in early July;
- Enjoyed a visit from Christy, Aaron, and Cole in August;
- Finished tiling and painting the bathroom in August (but it looks like we may need to work on another wall still);
- been amazed by how much our garden had grown by August (especially the tomatoes! Just compare it to June!;
- added some shelves to our entryway window for plants in August;
- went to the ‘gunks and saw mushrooms (in August) and climbed (in October);
- Went to our friends’ (Gavin and Susan) wedding in September;
- installed new windows in October; and
- celebrated our second anniversary at the Storm King Art Center (link or our pictures).
Sorry there’s so few pictures of all the excitement – our camera is crapping out (sometimes the anniversary presents suggest themselves!). Also, we tend to get distracted with doing and seeing stuff, and don’t take enough pictures!
Oh yeah, we also did a lot of other stuff – Gretchen passed her Q exam (yay!), and I got a proposal for the NSF Graduate Fellowship put together and submitted, and we’ve both been busy with classes and research… And the dog is good, though we haven’t been practicing the obedience school stuff enough.
Busy times. No complaints, though! Next, we’re heading to Nashville for Thanksgiving with mom. Keep an eye out for another update in… a few months?
