Rainbow in Edinburgh, Sept. 2006

A great kick!

An action shot from one of our kickball games last weekend. We've been having a great time playing with a fun team.

So much energy is expended that it is completely necessary to take a nap upon returning home after a double header.

Whew!

news of the week!

- Thomas Warren Pehl was born in the morning last Sunday :-) Jonathan and I received a call around 7am from Curtis to let us know that Jenny was in labor - and a bare 3+ or so hours later, Thomas arrived! Very exciting for Jenny and Curtis - Many Congratulations and Best Wishes!

- That same morning, when Jonathan and I walked into St. Raymond Church, everyone was shocked to see us (we'd only told Patrick we were coming, and only for Easter...). Surprises are fun :-)

- Wednesday we had a lovely dinner out at Fringale one of our favorite restaurants in the bay area - we were there with seven Sun associated friends, and it was great to reconnect with them. We closed the restaurant down...we were basically there until it was closing at 11pm. Good times... I highly recommend Fringale - it's small, the food is delicious, and all the servers are French (ok, so that last one gets a point in my book anyhow...).

yay!

This is not an April Fool's joke. I'm feeling much better!!! I think I've managed to kick the cold/icky/throat sick thing that I have been battling this past week. It must be the vitamins, medicine, positive attitude(honestly, I was trying everything), family, and the great day visiting I had yesterday with husband and mother-in-law :-)

So, I'm really glad. Unfortunately, husband has succeeded in falling slightly ill...so he's still nursing a head cold, but luckily it didn't get any worse than that.

Here we are in sunny California, where everything is actually green at the moment (this should last all of a couple of weeks;-) )

Heading up to Sacramento later today to visit with a friend of ours who went to college with Jonathan - should be fun!
