another year down

It was my birthday yesterday, so thanks to all who called, emailed, wrote, tried to call, etc... I enjoyed it greatly. We were in Holland MI for the weekend visiting friends again, this time Ross, Amy, Justine, Jon S., and Marcus. We grilled a few times because the weather was gorgeous, played music at Marcus' church sunday morning, and generally had a good time. But now its back to work, back to school.
Laurel found out she has been officially accepted to BGSU's MA Theatre program and has been awarded a full assistantship. She is ecstatic. Her days at Franscesca's are now numbered. And with me also getting a full assistantship for next year, we'l actually be making about the same if not more money than we are now. pretty cool.
Hope everyone is enjoying the great weather.
Ethan and Laurel
