We learned this week that this will be our new home.

Keep in mind it is a single guy who lives here now. How does that new country song go... "Put a girl in it!"
O.K. I know what you're thinking because 24 hours ago we thought the same thing ... HELL NO... but Jason and I have had time to settle down and we think it might look different to us once they have eaten the goat. :)

Yeah, after those pictures I think we will all need some of these!

Meg and her chums with their Build-a-Bears.
Garrett's football injury. He wanted me to wait until tomorrow to take the picture because someone told him it would be worse by then.

Hey Ghana Turners,
The front of the house looks promising, it has potential (isn't that how real estate agents say it?). If they don't get to the goat first, you can have gyros when you get there.

Do you think that perhaps you could talk your sponsor into hiring a guy to power wash the back end of the house to remove all what looks like mold using the idea that it is unhealthy? Love the pictures of the children..did Garrett's eye get even better?

Sophia's Surgical Narrative

By Chris Turner -
A camera and microphone are installed on all modern Macintoshes, along with an application called PhotoBooth , which allows users to take photos of themselves, along with movies.

Our good friend, Dr. J. Morgan Sweeney, passed away while teaching in London on Wednesday, August 8, 2007. Morgan -- an Irishman by clan, an Englishman by education, and a Gotham resident during his youth (his father was employed at the United Nations ) -- returned to the United States after completing his Ph.D at Oxford , and took a job with the History Department of Michigan State in 1976. Morgan wrote and lectured on modern European history, especially British, was active teaching in MSU's Study Abroad program in London , and was especially valued and loved by former students. Click for the obituary. Not having Morgan as an instructor during my time at MSU, I was introduced to him by our mutual friend, Drew Beiter, a former student. With Drew sequestered off working in California or Wyoming or the greater Buffalo area, and me living here in Williamston or Grand Ledge, I was able to more fully develop my own relationship with Morgan.
