Ashley


One of the things we'll miss most about Ohio is Ashley, our favorite hair dresser in the world. We got to get one last haircut this past week, and we'll miss her a lot.

Strawberry Festival!

Had a great time at the Troy Ohio Strawberry Festival last weekend! And today, we're going to the Yellow Springs Street Fest - can't wait!

Kindergarten Cartography

One of Jenna's favorite projects at school was making maps. Over the past two years, she assembled quite a collection, and we hung them on the wall in the basement.


She also learned about the flags of each country and the native animals. It was always fun to hear her spontaneously announce that animal x lives in country y.

Here's a closeup of her Middle East map:

Sleepee Cat

Here's a picture I drew of a frog and a sleepee cat. Daddy thought it was pretty funny.
Love,
Jenna

Goats and Ponies

Every day on the way to school and on the way home, we drive past a little pasture with goats and ponies in it. We always say "Hi goats and ponies!" (there's a rooster there too).

One day, the animals were pretty close to the road, so Daddy pulled over and let me get out of the car. The ponies came over to say hi. 

Meeting Rick Riordan

My favorite author is Rick Riordan - he wrote the Percy Jackson series about characters from Greek mythology still living in the world today. Daddy took me to meet him at a local book shop. Here's me standing by the autograph line sign.

And here I am getting my book signed my him. It was so cool!
