Hey Everybody!
So again sorry about the lack of posts, we should be updating regularly
now. Grace and I just got back from our National Vacation week...or
Delaware/Maryland Week-long Extravaganza. And after that I began teaching at the JCC again this summer. But! Good news! We brought a little firecracker back
with us. Without further ado...

| Amélie Olivia Cleona, Queen of Treats |
Introducing
Amélie Olivia Cleona,
Queen of Treats, Protector of Monkeys of this realm and other states, and Keeper of the Faith. After some extensive prayer, and research, we decided that to purchase our first puppy, a pretty little girl we named Amélie after my favourite french film...
Amélie is a Pembroke Welsh Corgi, she is red and white, her coat is expected to be brighter as she ages. She just turned 3 months old and 2 weeks.

Will upload pictures of her parents Oliver and Dicey when we visit next time, which might be in a month or four. In time for Thanksgiving. We've had Amélie for 2 weeks...and it's taken a great adjustment but it's rewarding. She is currently still in housebreaking mode, not so many potty accidents... more like teething. She has to learn to stop biting and licking every single surface in the house. This goes from my socks, to the table cloth...Grace's hand when excited. She's a nipper by nature, Corgis nip because they are bred to herd or that's their natural instinct. We have no sheep here, so we hope to
nip this problem in the bud...STAT!
So what else is new...
- Grace has been at Linden Oaks Dental for almost a year and loving it and her co-workers. It's a great atmosphere, and they all support each other in a almost familial sisterly way.
- I've been shooting and editing weddings on and off this summer...crazy how different they can be. And how taxing they can be on your mind and body.
- JCC Theatre Arts Camp Session 1 ends this week. I go back in to teach another two weeks at the end of August. It's amazing to see how excited film makes
the students. It's also great to see my students rehearse and work
together in preparation for their film project. They have two weeks to put together a story (that I have to pen in a evening), rehearse and then shoot...so the last day of camp they have a film to show. It's a awesome whirlwind. :-)
- Our church's 35th Anniversary weekend begins the last day of Camp Session II, hopefully I can get working on a video for them...soon! Just have to be told what to do...not that I don't have my own ideas. It's just great to have some direction.
Please continue to pray for us...for strength and patience for Amélie has she continues to adjust to us and we to her. Grace and I will begin soon a most grueling remainder of the summer, as I finish camp, then we head into VBS, then prep for the 35th Anniversary video and the last session of JCC camp.
