I’ve been promising pics of the trips to Thailand and Ireland for so long… that you’ve probably realized I won’t be posting them any time soon…

HOWEVER: since some of you haven’t been able to see these yet and are checking from back East, here are pics of the girls first day of school this year (they started back on the 25^th – way too early for my liking, thank you). Try not to panic over the back-to-school haircuts – they WANTED them this short! J

They’re pretty thrilled about school this year – Maura is in Miss Culleton’s 4^th grade class, and Marisa is in Miss Yajnick’s 2^nd grade class, both back at Rheem School in Moraga.

Meantime, email me here if you haven’t been able to get in touch with me at home or at work.
