Fresh Air. I am going to miss it.

P196

This is me just finishing my workout this AM. I am enjoying the fresh smell of clean air, a crisp breeze blows and sky is gray, from clouds, not pollution.
I have been psyching myself up for this move back to Manila. The last two days have been the first feelings of sadness and the foreign reality that is just a few months away. Washington has been gorgeous and the temperament utopic.
I will shortly be trading in my organic breeze for a desired air conditioned temperature set to cool down my overheating body. Sigh... I will enjoy it while it lasts.

Life Update

P191

Jake is done with grad school in June. I am still substitute teaching. Aaker hit a year and half. We are hoping to pop out a few more (not just yet!) We are moving back to The Philippines in July with the same company. Not just for a year this time but indefinitely. We are all pretty excited about it. I was sick of it by then end of our time when we lived there before but a nanny, driver and house cleaner sound so wonderful. And we still have amazing friends there.

All the Single Ladies

I posted this on Facebook but didn't include the video because incapable singing voice is all over the place.
Aaker you poor soul. Your daddy was gone for 3 weeks and this is what happens.

Planes, Trains and Automobiles

Two Weeks, thirteen-hundred miles in a car, five hours of flying and four different homes we are finally home. It feels so good to be in my own bed again. Aaker was happy too. We visited friends and family in Utah, Arizona and California.
Jake is still in Thailand for school then stopping Manila to find us a home for our move in July.

Dirty Thirty

More like sweaty thirty. For Jakes thirtieth we rented out a go kart track that was literally in the 7th level of a parking garage. Only in Manila.

Gardening

I joined a community garden through our ward this year and absolutely love it, most days. Here are some progressive photos:
