this used to be our family blog entitled "British Royalty versus the Ramsey Clan" (since i'm descended from King Edward II and jon is a descendant from the Ramsay Clan) but since jon never participated, and my mom is the only one who reads this, it is now a format for writing her letters. I mean, for writing you letters, mom.

Oh, let's see...

So much has gone on lately...

Susan painted some flower cards and sent one to her mom (post mom's total knee-replacement surgery) and the others to the ladies she visit-teaches at church:


Raisa, our niece, took some photos shown below at Susan's brother Steve's 1st annual Heathfest (music fest and homemade beer tasting) at his home in Riverfalls, WI this past September:


Sue sang harmony on a couple songs with Jon after he dragged her up there:



Raisa with Luci:


Congratulations to Raisa for managing to snap a candid photo of Jon:


Raisa's bro, Brenden:

Raisa's coolest friend, Emily in the background:


Brad & Steve's acoustic group (Steve is an amAzing guitar player and singer):



In other newz...

We moved to an apartment and it is lovely.
Susan is a busy bee working on finishing her "thesis" for her Masters, with the help of Courtney's genius tip of "just do 15 minutes each day" and it is working (which is a godsend after a year of feeling no motivation to finish it).
Jon is awesome and always right.
Margie wears a no-bark shock collar while the humans are away, and it finally worked after a whole day of it not working - whew!
and the cats are weird and meaowy (two of which will find new homes soon, as the apartment only allows two pets total).

that's our update!

peace out.

Those cards are stunning!

I'm glad Jon dragged you up to sing harmony - you have a lovely voice!

Fun pictures of the Heathfest - a great tradition. Hmmmm how to do something similar except for the homemade beer making :)

I'm glad you're making progress - 15 minutes at a time yeah, one of these days it will be DONE!

Great pictures, Susan's posing was cute and funny in the midst of two suposedly serious dudes.

Great artwork on the cards, very pretty.

Hope you can keep all your cats in the new apt.
