Big News, Part 2.

so i've really wanted one for awhile now. christina hasn't been so sure if she's ready but i guess i've managed to convince her. quite a few of our friends here at woodstock have them and it seems like a great place for them. it's taken a few tries, but that's half of the fun right? we also weren't sure if we were in a good enough place financially to make this committment, but there is no time like now. we also figured this would be another way to get family and friends to visit.


For those of you that remember a similar blog from october of 07, this one's the real thing. I am just over 3 months pregnant, feeling good except the Indian food is the one thing that makes me feel nauseous, which is kind of unnavoidable. We are planning on having the baby over here in India at a community hospital a mile down the road. This has occupied a lot of our thoughts lately, but life has continued to go on. Here are some pictures of what's been keeping us busy.

This is a recent project from my Drawing / Painting class. Each student was given a square to paint and then we put them all together to create a copy of this famous Indian Mughal painting, thanks for all the help Mom!
Some flowers from our gate that sprung up from our yard that surprised us.
Casey is finishing up his year in the PE Department. He was greatly appreciated and I think all of the little girls will miss him. This was at a recent PE Banquet, doesn't he look like his Dad?
This is my Advisor Group, all Grade 11 students from all over the world (India, Nepal, Germany, US, Korea). We try to have them over to our place as often as we can for some good home cooking and baking.

This last one is of one of my senior students working on her final project. All of their paintings will be put up in the High School hallway.
Only 10 more teaching days left for me! And 16 for Casey... We are really looking forward to coming home soon, 2 years has gone by quickly!
