I don't know about you all, but we have had rain, rain, rain, and more rain here. Our grass is growing like crazy, but doesn't stay dry long enough to cut it! Last weekend we finally had some beautiful sunny weather. Ryan's parents were here visiting. We went to Ryan's baseball game. His team had an awesome season this year. (I think their record was something like 19-3?) We also did some playing outside. As we were cleaning out the little fountain in our backyard Leah had lots of fun making a mud pie out of herself. She was really funny about sticking her head into the water from the hose, too. Unfortunately, I didn't any pictures with "Gwammy and Papa!" I guess because Grandma took these pictures...but Leah had a fun time with them, including a day shopping and riding the choo-choo (twice!) at the mall.
Greetings friends, Thanks to all your prayers and support over these last months, my job search is finally over. It ended where it began, in the principal's office at Marian High School, a Catholic high school in Mishawaka, IN, about 5 minutes from our house. I will be teaching 11th and 12th grade English-- 4 sections of honors Junior composition, and 1 Senior world literature course. Both Nicole and I are very excited about this opportunity, as we will now be on the same schedules with breaks and will, of course, have the summers off to travel and visit all of you, our family and friends. I am observing the teacher who is resigning over the next week, and I will begin on my own Monday, November 3, just in time for Nikki to go into labor, necessitating my finding a sub for a week or so?! Oh well, what can you do? Thanks again to all of you who have prayed earnestly that this challenging time would pass. We are truly blessed by all of you.
