Orser update

Long time no write!! Just a quick note to say hi and fill you in on the haps in good ol' Sac Town.

We started school a few weeks ago and have been


up to our necks in laundry, and very sandy laundry at that. 

Anderson is enjoying some sister-free time, although he isn't very happy leaving her at school in the morning. He is especially attached to Isabella's friend Maya.  I'm assuming they'll get married some day, but we'll have to keep you posted.

Andrew found an old fish kite in the garage which has provided many hours of entertainment.

We took a little trip to China Town a few weeks ago and wasted five dollars on a pair of parasols that lasted exactly seventeen minutes. (It's always nice to get your money's worth.)

The kids were digging the train. We took the BART into the city from Hayward or Richmond or somewhere--I've blocked the memory from my mind. There's nothing like maneuvering four toddlers, two double strollers, and a diaper bag or two up an escalator and through a turnstile. (I have no idea how to spell that word. Is it even a word? I'm from nebraska, we don't have turnstiles there, we have autogates.) Still, it's great to have a little excitement now and then.

Other than that, we've just hung around the water areas at the park, trying to keep cool. I'm definitely looking forward to fall-- my faaaavorite time of year!!!

Although, I'm looking forward to Spring even more this year!!! Can't wait until March!
