A typical conversation with Analis

Recently we were eating at a Chinese buffet and as I (Jon) was painstakingly shelling my shrimp Analis struck up the following conversation with me.

"Daddy! you don't like the tail (referring to the shrimp)?" she asked.

I responded "No. the tail is yucky. I like to eat the body.

After a brief pause she said "Daddy, I like your body."

"Oh really." I replied

"Ya" she said. "Your body has bones in it. Bones are hard. You have bones in your arm."

"Uh huh. I also have bones in my legs, and in my fingers" I added.

Without even letting me finish what I was saying, her face lit up and with her eyes just about as wide open as she could make them she blurted out "Daddy! Dogs eat bones!"

I just thought I would share one of the more entertaining conversations I've had in the recent past. As you can tell, Analis has a very long attention span.

4 years old!

Analis has turned 4. She was so excited about her present and her cake.

Because we had the movers coming on her official birthday. We took her to Sea World

a week before.

Here we are at the Shamu Believe performance.
We went to the Shark Reef. ( They both really liked the fishes )

Looking at the dolphins was really fun and scary, because Costen wanted to get in the pool too.

We moved in to our new Apartment.

We live in a nice little apartment complex about 20 minutes from Ft. Sam and less than 5 minutes from the San Antonio Temple. It's a lot smaller than our place in Germany was. But we like it and there is a pool...

We've Arrived!

We have been in Texas for about a week and we are still getting use to the heat. We have been looking for a place to live ever since we got here. We might have found a place we'll know for sure by the end of the week. Yay! I will post pictures soon enough.
