Almost French: Love And A New Life In Paris

I'm back from Minnesota where I spent a week for Christmas playing Rook and Euchre, shopping in downtown Northfield, sledding on St. Olaf hill, and making snow penguins. 

Grandma, during the middle of a card game:

--Did you hear?  They think Humpty-Dumpty might have been pushed!

Uncle Coke and Kendre, walking downtown:

--Kendre, do you want a horsey-back ride?

--A horsey-back ride!  It's called a piggy-back ride!

--That's ridiculous.  Have you ever heard of someone riding a pig?

 

Uff da!

Summer vacation is cooler than an ice chest!  I spent last week at camp with a cabin of 8 little 2nd grader girls swimming, tubing, horseback riding, doing magic tricks, and juggling.  I met some really fun people, and to top it all off, I got to squeeze in Lauren's graduation.  Now, I'm just kickin' back in Houston.  Today, I am going to continue with my quest to learn the entire Spanish language in two months or less.  (Maybe I'll get in the Guiness Book of World Records!)  Any phrases that I'll need to know when I go to Mexico?  Yesterday, Ben taught me how to say, "Mi tío es verde, y mi pluma está en la calle."  Very important.

I shook hands with the principal today and walked out of Sam Houston.  I have no plans on ever going back.  New adventures await at Spring Woods in August, but that's two months away...

It's summertime!
