• Zeke has now turned 3! We had a great birthday party for him and 2/3 of the Lubbock branch of the family made it down. You can check out pictures of the birthday bash here!
• Speaking of the "big boy" Zeke is officially 95% potty trained. We aren't always the best at night, but during the day, rarely does he have an accident! Now if we can just get brother Zane on the potty wagon, we'll get a raise by not having to buy diapers.
• Zane is talking more and more. I almost have him ready to woo women with the official greeting for pretty girls. (If you don't know the official greeting, you'll have to ask them!)
• The boys have taken to the water. They both love to swim, although they can't do with out their "floaties". Eventually we'll get them some swim lessons.
• Jill has officially resigned from Bosqueville ISD as the elementary counselor. She is now working full time at her private practice. Hopefully that will allow her to work fewer hours and still support me and the boys in the lifestyle that we want to become accustomed to!
• I have secured my first head principal's job! After 10 years with La Vega ISD, I have now accepted the principalship of the secondary school at Bosqueville ISD. (and no, that's not why Jill resigned, so there!) I'm in charge of grades 6-12, totalling about 230 students or so. I've finally started to settle in to my new digs and looking forward to a new challenge. It was heartbreaking to leave La Vega and the great people there, but I'm able to take the boys with me to school in the morning (BISD has a built in daycare) and the school is 7 minutes from our house.
• We have camped a few times this summer and hope to take the trailer our at least a couple of more times before school starts. We will be meeting my cousin Holly and her husband Brady in DeLeon and camping for the weekend as Brady competes in the tractor pull there the second weekend of August. No other real vacation plans as Jill is working in every client she can I must prepare for staff development and the start of school.

I hope this finds everyone well as we are doing great. Check out all the pictures and drop us a line to let us know how you are doing!
