Check the other blog too!

Just a reminder to check mine and Tommy's blog. The link is below. I finally posted some pictures. None of people yet, they're a little boring (the pictures, not the people) but I'll try to get some more exciting pictures up soon. It is, as always, difficult getting enough time to post all that I would like to.

Our newest addition

Holly and I just got back from Gold Beach and we found out that the baby we are having is a boy!!!

Patrick Leland is going to be his name...and in the ultrasound everything looked just fine.

We are all really excited that we can stop calling him "Joy" now, and I am really looking forward to having a little boy.

Dear Fam,

It looks as though Jef is determined to drag me (a certified technopeasant) kicking and screaming into the 21st century. Indeed, I recently realized while singing along enthusiastically to Men Without Hats catchy ditty "Here Come the 90s" that I was not as progressive as I sometimes believe. I loved the family pictures and reading about Heather's trip, Doris's Austria experience, etc. (although months late).

Our crew is healthy and happy at present. Love you all. Thanks again for your efforts Jef!

Love,
Loren

Greetings from Germany

Thank you, Jef, first of all, for your letter of instruction. I hope that people will heed it and that the blog will be the success it is destined to be. Secondly, I apologize for the lack of participation on my part on this blog and mine and Tommy's blog. I promise it really isn't my fault. Due to a series of events that are beyond my control, I don't have much internet access. I am still working on this, but until I get more, I hope you will all post regularly. Whenever I do get access it is for brief periods of time, so I could check postings, I probably just couldn't post myself. Anyway, greetings and love from Sigi and Geerd and Tim in Schortens. I am visiting for the weekend. I hope you are all doing well.
