Hey all!
Things continue to go well here. Fall is coming on slowly but surely, the surest sign being that term is starting this week here at the university and the population of the town has at least doubled in the past few days. There are people everywhere.
I was hoping to be able to share more photos than I have at this point: I have not been successful with up-loading off my camera. The computer I'm using now doesn't recognise my camera and the camera shop's computers were down the past two times I've tried there.
Ashley's birthday was Sunday. She turned three! It must be so cool to be growing up--seems like everything is such an adventure. I think this was her first birthday that she's ever been conscious of, and she was so excited. The whole experience centers around the cake ("Tomorrow is my birthday cake!").
Today Maxwell, the VanDixhoorn's black cat, dragged in a mass of mouse remains onto the kitchen floor and dropped them next to the baby. Emily lost it. I don't think I've laughed so hard since I've been here. It was so, so funny.
