Thank You, God, For This Beautiful Day!

There has been some beautiful weather around these parts lately, allowing our family to enjoy the outdoors. For instance, this weekend we went to the Farmer's Market, went to a kite festival, and checked out the Sweet Corn Blues festival in Normal. I love this time of year! Here are some pictures from the kite festival (it was supposed to be a hot air balloon festival, but it was too windy. Perfect for kites!).



Although it's a bit crowded in this picture, JD and Michael are off to the left watching the live wrestling match happening on the right!


Michael and I also went to the zoo last week. His favorite animal was the sun bear.

The first week of school went well, no real excitement to report. I'm working on chapter two of my dissertation and starting to prepare materials for the job search that begins in October. JD, meanwhile, is still learning his stores in his new territory. Michael is learning to talk.
