I'm Baaaaack!

Wow, I think that's the longest blog break I have ever taken! I was seriously beginning to wonder if maybe I should just leave up that Halloween template for a few more months until it was October again. I also began to worry that if I did, indeed post something after so long that I would send one of my devoted readers into a life-threatening state of shock. I considered giving up the blog entirely, but the subtle (and not-so-subtle) hints from family and friends requesting an update did the trick. So here I am -- back in the game!

There is just too much to write about to give you a full run-down of the last few months (a daunting task, that no doubt contributed to my avoidance of the blog), so I am just going to start out by getting my feet wet again.

This is the best/worst/only picture of the kids on Easter. Notice their matching outfits that I was so excited about. Also, notice the expression on Liam's face. It says it all, and is the reason there is only one picture. Oh well. I will try and get a better portrait of them when there is better light and Liam is not so tired.

Compare that picture to this one, taken at Christmastime when we were still in Germany:

They have grown so much in such a short period of time.
Okay, these have nothing to do with the above photos, but I thought you might like to see our monkeys feeding the monkeys. We visited the village of Azru with our friend, Sofiane, and fed the wild monkeys in the cedar forest.


Until next time!
