When we registered FG for school, she had to take a series of tests which is given to all new students. I hadn’t been warned about the test or the length of time it would take. After an hour and a half of waiting around, I was getting a little worried that there was something wrong ~ did she somehow forget how to mulitple/divide over the summer? BUT, on the contrary, the counselor came out and told me that FG did fabulous on both the reading and math tests but especially on the math test.
So, Grandma Betty decided to send her a congratulations balloon, with a bear, bouquet ~ FG was so shocked when the delivery man came to the door. As was I since it was a lot of balloons.
A bonus was it added a lot of color to our otherwise barren house.
Congratulations FG!

The florist did a pretty good job on the balloons I had no idea what it would look like.

Heidi: The weather here is very much like Germany. We haven’t had to turn our a/c on at all (hope it actually works in case we need it next summer). The highs have been in the low 80’s and the mornings are usually in the 50’s. Very pleasant. I’m sure all the money I save on a/c will go towards my heating bill come winter 😉
Come visit ANYTIME (well, except next week when our other visitors are here) ~ the fall is supposed to be especially nice with the changing leaves. Scary thing is, the leaves have already started changing and falling. Can’t believe it’s almost September.
I wonder if that airfare will be available from Syracuse to Austin in the winter when we need to come visit you and some warm Texas weather 🙂

Is FG wearing long sleeves in August? WOW! Please send us some cooler weather! Can’t wait to come visit . . . found a RT ticket from Austin to Syracuse for $225! Now that is a good deal! Hope to visit soon.
