Almost a year

It has been a year since I last posted on this blog--we just celebrated another anniversary. In St. Louis, where we moved about a month ago. Matt has a new job and we have a new apartment to unpack. Matt's birthday is coming up and we are going to the Rams game for his present from me. It is nice to get to do city things again. We moved to Soulard, the french district of St. Louis which resembles New Orleans. It is very dog friendly, and we like walking Boss around the area. Matt starts school in a couple of weeks so we have a little bit of time to get things settled, and then start a new routine. I dreaded the idea of moving again but now is a very exciting time full of new possibilities.

It is my wedding anniversary

So I made a movie honoring it. It was hard to find pictures of both of us because usually one of use is holding the camera--vow to self, more couple pictures this year.

My Nephew Daniel's Summer 2007

My sister also has a stepson the same age as Britin, 6, and they got to spend lots of time together this summer. She uploaded a whole bunch of photos chronicling his summer, which overlaps with ours, and I made it into a new montage.

Britin's Perspective on this Summer

With Britin, we got to go lots of places--Houston, Schlitterbaun in New Braunfels, Cedar Point, Cleveland, numerous musuems, Missouri, etc. And during these various travels, Britin has either taken photos of his experience, or asked me to use his camera to capture him in action. I put these photos into a cute little video:
