News from the Jacobs family in Saudi Arabia
I’m finally getting around to clearing pictures off the camera after a long hiatus. Here are a few I thought I’d share from October.
Not quite a month on and I finally got the pictures off of the camera and uploaded to the site. Enjoy!
Here are a few random pictures from the start of the school year. They are growing fast with Kai now in 4th grade and Nora in 1st. Enjoy the photos!
Where does the time go? Nora turned 7 recently and, as is way with children’s birthdays, there were a range of celebrations. There was the small ceremony at home on her actual birthday, a recognition at school and then, on a suitably open weekend, the bowling party with friends. Enjoy the pictures!
The final set of summer vacation pictures has been processed and I’ve posted a few here. It was a good vacation and the kids had a great time–they are growing up too fast!
For much of the summer we kept a game camera over the road and back by the swamp. We came up with lots of pictures of deer and even more of the neighbors dogs. Quite a few of a couple of scraggly kids and some of some yahoo who kept driving through on a 4-wheeler like he owned the place.
Now that we’ve been back from vacation for a while the process of sorting though vacation pictures begins. There is less of a backlog this year than in the past but still – these pictures from the Sibley County Fair in Arlington Minnesota are from August 1.
Kai and Nora both insisted on wearing their Packer Jerseys into Viking country. It is strange because they also have Viking jerseys. I guess they just like to stir the pot.
Earlier this summer Grandma Annette received a notice from the Arlington Police Department regarding her rampant shrubbery that was overhanging the curb and causing a general hazard to public order. The penalty for not controlling one’s shrubbery by August 1? Up to 90 days in jail! Here are some images from her children coming to the rescue the evening of July 31.
Last weekend was the Arlington-Green Isle reunion with some of Crystal’s childhood friends. Here are a few pictures from the event.
The home addition is coming along nicely. For those that are interested here are some pictures of progress made so far (and a few other bonus pics).
