So much has gone on since I last contributed, so here goes.

A month ago, Luke, through much planning and aforethought, managed to surprise me with a cheesecake picnic on a hillside for opening night of "All's Well That Ends Well." It was the most delightful evening of this spring. There are pictures that will find their way here someday. Also in attempt to keep us hip and fresh we've taken each other on several "first dates." It is unusual and remarkable how acting as if you're on square one instead of month 10 can refresh your view and spark the attraction. Ok, who am kidding. It wasn't a spark, it was a wildfire.

On to other matters.

Also about a month ago, Luke sent in a short fiction piece to the Hemingway contest in Ketchum, Idaho. We have yet to to hear from anyone from the East side. Naturally, there is only one person in our house fit to pose inquiries about such matters and that is Noah.
He has discovered the question "Why" and thinks it is applicable to everything, i.e. "Why is the truck blue, Danimum?Why is it going bye bye? Why is it carrying hay? Why do cow's eat hay?" and so on and so forth. He loves a never ending conversation and stumping his Danimum. He also loves his owies. We're not sure why. Lets see, what else.Oh yes. In a matter of weeks he has mastered the art of "holding it." He's a potty pro.

Maddoh has discovered the power of her scream. It gets her in time out. She knows at least 20 more words from the last time I posted her vocabulary. She's sharp as a tack that one. Also she is very tan. Danimum feels very left out.

Luke and I have recently developed a weekend addiction to Frolfing (Frisbee golf.) Look forward to a visual hordourve of our ultra smooth skill. So far we've lost three discs, a pair of flip flops, and our dignity on several occasions, but we are resilient. For any one reading who dares to research this sport or goes so far as to try it, Westpark Swamp is a soul sucker. Beware!

So much else has happened, the catching case of child gastroenteritis, power outages, sneaking out of a Japanese Steak house, Battlestar Galactica, Season 2.5 and 3, my first sewing machine that came with a manual in three different languages, and several loud and obnoxious neighbor encounters at 4 in the morning. All in all, we are well. Thanks for catching up with the Faebs. Over and out.
