9/10/08 update

I'm trying to post updates & pictures a little more often. I had some new pics from some recent beach trips, so thought I'd post. We don't have too much to update as far as news. One piece of bad news that I forgot to post last time...Jeremy was informed that he did not get on with the fire department. Oh well! I believe everything happens for a reason, so apparently it wasn't meant to be. It definitely wasn't because he didn't do well on the testing. He did great on everything and Devin & I are very proud of him! Jeremy is planning on taking a vacation to Arizona (to visit his friend Dameon) and Iowa very soon since he didn't get to go with Devin & I in May. Jeremy & I have also taken up running. Jeremy ran his first race on Labor Day--a 5K, and placed 21st out of 65 runners. I chose to practice a little more before I take on a race! I think that's about it for now. Here are some pics...

Devin put this ensemble together all by herself!
