General Hardin update

We have an apartment for next year. We have signed a lease and paid for 6 months rent. We even have keys and everything. We are pretty excited about it. It is in a very nice apartment complex with lots of areas for the kids to play and lots of kids for the kids to play with. There is even a nice pond just feet from our building ( where we will set the turtle free). The apartment has enough rooms for Liam to have a separate room and the girls to have a girl bedroom and we will even have a school room. There is a couch too ( we only have chairs here). The only drawback to the apartment is that it is on the 4th floor and there is no elevator. We feel that it is not much of a problem for us ( we are used to it now), but visitors might have some problems. The apartment is in the same complex that Bobby and Bonnie lived in last year. We will try to get some pictures up soon.

We had thought that we were going to live in an apartment complex this year. When we landed we were told that we were going to live on campus. Last semester it was probably a good thing since we had students watch the kids while we were in class. However, there are not many other people that live on campus and there really are not any kids for ours to play with. We are very excited about the opportunities at the new place.

We are not sure exactly when we will move but probably in the next few weeks. We still are not 100% sure where Jon will teach next year. We should know something pretty soon though.

Jon's weekly meetings with Alex are going very well and even though he is graduating, we will see him lots next year. I think he is interested in continuing his study!

The last several days have been HOT! I think yesterday the high was 97! It may have been a little cooler here because of the mountains. Thankfully it is going to cool off some over the next few days. Teaching in that kind of heat is not fun at all.
