Labor Day Weekend

John and I will be heading down to Charlottesville, VA this weekend to see my parents and sister, Abby. Unfortunately, we won't be going through Washington DC where we could see Chris. Hopefully we'll get to do that soon, though.
Darcy and Jamie have rented out their home for all seven Penn State home football games in September and October so we will be doing various things each of those weekends. John and I are embracing this as a chance to get out and see the area, do a little camping, and go see friends in surrounding cities. We're planning to go camping a couple of hours from State College over the weekend after Labor Day with Darcy, Jamie, and the two dogs. Pete will LOVE being off leash in the forest for a couple of days where there are countless things to investigate.

We hope to hear from all of you!

The Garden

More of the Garden. We have made fresh salsa with tomatoes and jalapeños from the garden. They also have green peppers, different types of lettuce, kale, peas, beets, carrots, parsnips, and a lot of different herbs.

The bee hive. The bees pollinate the garden so much that Darcy and Jamie have more tomatoes than they know what to do with!

First two weeks

Hi Everybody!

These first two weeks have been very busy. We've gotten our car registered, transferred our driver's licenses, applied to some jobs, met with Penn State faculty, moved everything into Darcy and Jamie's house, and John's managed to read the first FIVE Harry Potter books! We've so enjoyed spending a lot of time with Darcy, Jamie and Hunter. Pete has taken his time getting used to Hunter but they have had their moments of canine camaraderie... usually when there is a squirrel in the yard they both have their eye on.
We hope you'll check in once in awhile to see what we're up to, and we'll try to post on a regular basis. Drink an extra Los Tules margarita for us since there truly is NO Mexican food here! We think Los Tules II would be very successful here!

We have a flight booked for Christmas so we'll definitely see you all then if not sooner.

Much love,
Elizabeth, John and Pete
