We’re back! We had a great time. I can’t wait to go back.
Here’s a picture at the Las Vegas airport from the plane:

Good pictures. I can tell that y’all had a great time with the family.

Cute pictures!

Hooray for pictures! Wow, what beautiful people. (Not that I’m biased or anything…)
I loved seeing the pictures of the stream…considerable snow has melted down there since I went down a few weeks ago, and the greenness is so beautiful!
And the second picture of Esther and Kyrie at the water park is very cute of both of them.
Looking forward to seeing you all pretty soon again. Noelle still asks every so often, “Where Kyrie?”

Great pictures. It seems like you guys have a great family situation up there. I sympathize. We’re in Texas and Tennessee is family, and even that is hard. But once you’re two states away, it’s practically the same. Do you guys see a chance to get up there to live, maybe with Rick getting on at a school in Washington? I remember him once saying he was teaching part-time or maybe wanting to teach at a school near where Rachel’s family is from.

Great pictures! I love the ones of Esther and Kyrie. They seem to have so much fun together. Such sweet girls. We had fun seeing you guys,but it wasn’t enough time. Can’t wait for you all to come back.

Awww some didn’t load for me, but the ones that did were really cute! Especially Kyrie in the snow!
So are you packing everything and treking up here? Like actually moving? Not just a visit? That would be really neat if you are!

All we know now is that we’re moving out of our current house. Although it’s our hope to move to Spokane in the near future, we don’t have any guarantees until Rick finds employment there. So if he doesn’t find anything this summer, we’ll go back down south and just find another house down here (this house has just given us too many problems, so we’re done with it!)

Good luck, then, with the job search Rick. Are you thinking of staying in academia and focusing your job search on schools in the Washington area?

Nope.
