Family Postcard #1

Hello Friends,

As secular folks, we have struggled to think of a good way to share family photos and information with our friends and family. Many folks do this with a card at the end of the calendar year. We have coworkers who choose a silly week, such as National Library Week, and send it out then. After much thought, we have compromised on a family postcard during the summer, which is essentially our New Year. Below is the front photo collage and the information we printed at home and slipped into the envelope.


This year has once again been filled with amazing adventures:
Nicole resigned from her position as behavior support from Bancroft Elementary and has taken on several art residencies, professional organizing, and substitute teaching. Monica recently finished her fourth year as a teacher's aide at Bancroft and loves working with 2nd and 3rd grade classes.

Together there has been:
A trip to WI, camping in Afton, a plethora of niece and nephew fun, lots of biking, three deaths within our families, many house guests, gardening, a Camp Quest Summit in Dallas, lots of homemade food adventures, making things, dancing, and too many visits to the library and farmers' market to count.

Some of our favorites this year:
Museums - M.I.A., Weisman, Franconia, Arboretum
Movies - Song of the Sea, Where Do We Go Now?, Begin Again, Lunch Box, Secret Life of Walter Mitty, Interstellar, Shock Doctrine
Books - Hug Me, It's All Too Much, Haroun and the Sea of Stories, 100 Demons

Much love,

Nicole and Monica
