Laurance and Kimberly were here this weekend...we enjoyed catching up! They are doing well and staying busy--Laurance teaches in a public school, Kimberly works at a bank. They also stay very involved in their church. They were able to visit some friends while they were here. Kimberly enjoyed time drinking (lots of!) coffee with her girlfriends & Laurance hung out with Chuck and some other friends from BJ. Laurance and Kimberly were also able to spend some time with Tom Swanson and his family.
Chuck didn't come Sunday but he spent the evening with us Saturday night. He and Jeff kept me laughing with their crazy physical humor and imitations of accents...former teachers at BJ or whoever. :) Chuck is doing well and is still writing Ginger, but they have come to the understanding that they will just be friends for now. He is considering a GAship at BJ next fall.
Will, Laura and Ella came over Sunday for lunch. We had a good time talking and....since it's a Kannon get-together...playing the guitar. :) Laurance got me new strings & we restrung my guitar. He also taught Jeff some "riffs." Kimberly found a sweet deal on a breadmaker online and ordered that :) We told her how much we love ours, and she misses the good bread her mom makes. Jeff enjoyed showing the attic to Laura & Will and explaining every little detail to their interested ears :) Little Ella showed off her back-arching and rolling over skills, and is getting pudgier every day! She laughed when we imitated her newest mouth sound, doing a click noise with her tongue!
Laura and Will had to leave around 3:30 to go see a house they might buy in Laurens. If it doesn't work out, they said they will be content to stay where they are. It is getting a little more crowded though with the new addition to the family!
Some news for Jeff & me....we are considering a move to Atlanta. (Don't worry, we wouldn't live in Atlanta, but in one of the suburbs.) There is a design job offer with his brother's company that would pay very well, around $65,000. Also the Christian music academy there is wanting to hire another piano teacher. It sounds like it's a great opportunity, but we want to do what God has for us. We would appreciate your prayers.
Love all of you and very thankful for our family!

Em and Jeff, Staying at your house was great! we enjoyed going to church with you ( the message was awesome), the guest room, the delicious Sunday dinner, having fun pickin on each other, seeing Will and Lauran and little Ella Grace, and oh yes the joy of putting the new D'odderio strings on Em's classical guitar...and teaching Jeff da blues:)
It was a lot of fun! We had such a good time having you here. We'll have to do it more often! Em
Wow! Wish we could've been there! Sounds like you have so much fun together. We have lots of catching up to do this summer. I had to wait a while to meet Jeff so I guess I can wait a few more months to meet Kimberly. I still have a hard time believing he's married! I'll remind Dayton to come check out the siglog.
