Who'd of thought?

I grew up a Saint's fan. One thing I never really expected to see is Tom Benson holding up the Lombardi trophy. Anyway, you can see from the picture that Isaac was more focused on eating bleu cheese dressing than watching the game. He didn't seem to approve of getting meatloaf and eggplant while Em & I ate chicken wings. Once he got out of the high chair, he grabbed chicken bones, dipped them in the dressing and would have eaten it until he got sick if I had not taken it away from him.

Otherwise, things have returned to somewhat of a routine. At work, I'm trying to finish up working on married soldier and single soldier retreats for my battalion. There seems to be a constant series of changes or confusions surrounding funding for these things coming from the Chaplain Corps. One of my biggest frustrations will military ministry at this point is the poor communication and inefficient channels of authority within the chaplain corp itself. I love the ministry to the guys in my battalion, but I am constantly frustrated in dealing with my branch.

Emily is doing well. School is ok. She's ready for the summer, but what school teacher isn't. Isaac is learning more words, but still sees little point in saying much more than "more" and "all done." The child likes to eat. He does enjoy trying to catch his football, and does well with that. He feels he needs to applaude each time he catches the ball.

I'll try to post a few more pictures in the photo album. Some of them are from a trip to Houston to visit relatives from last weekend.
