Things that make you go hmmmm...



Apparently I lost track of time. 3 months worth of time. oops. To say things have been busy here would be a ridiculous understatement. I don't think I can remember a busier time in our lives, except maybe when I had a newborn and a preschooler. That was pretty crazy. But now, wow. The good news is that for the next few weeks, things slow down a little. We'll only have 10 extra people sleeping at our house in August off and on. We are so thankful, though to finally have a place where we can have guests! Whooppeeee!!! Soooo, if you've ever thought about coming to visit us, Fall is looking pretty good!
I'll give some highlights of the last few months, and I plan on updating regularly from here on out!
Here goes:
*Olivia changed schools and is extremely happy now
*I have a new niece named Jessica
*Both girls are AMAZING students, and their French is phenomenal
*My parents came to stay!
*My inlaws came to stay!
*we had 3 wonderful interns for the summer
*ICCP's summer camp was incredible-66 kids and 40 volunteers
*Had one of the best birthday parties of my life
*There is a new Mexican place in town that is super yummy, and i heart it
*I lost 25lbs in the last 5 months, for a total of 45 since we moved here
*I really like France. Many of you may find this shocking. But it's true.

So that's the short list. I know I left 60 or 145 things off, but I'll fill in over the next few weeks!
