Freya has been doing great. She still loves her Montessori program. We went to a potluck at her school on Friday night. It was fun to watch the bigger kids shout, "There's Freya!" and they came and held her hand and walked her around the lawn area, just like they evidently do very often at school. I think she's popular!
My busy season is actually just starting up. I volunteered to head up the Combined Federal Campaign at the Fire Center, which is the federal version of the United Way campaign. I'm excited about it, but holy moly, it's a lot of work. We had one of the local weathermen come out and do an on-site broadcast from our main building last Friday, which took some coordinating. I am also hearing word that a public affairs specialist position is opening up out there, and I will definitely be applying for it. I'm not sure how well I'll rate in the application process, as I'll be competing against a lot of folks with college degrees, but I do know I have some key players on my side. We'll see what happens--I probably won't know anything in particular until December or January.
We made reservations to go to Denver at Thanksgiving, and we'll be meeting up with the New Jersey folks there. Can't wait to see everyone!
We took Freya and her Grandpa Throngard out to a local farm stand we frequent for eggs and produce yesterday. They have some fun harvest activities set up, and we think we got a good family picture to use for our Christmas card. Here's another one for you guys to enjoy--Freya is standing in front of the "kitchens," which is what she calls this variety of poultry.
Love to all,
Casey, Matt & Freya
