American Girl!

Ok, so although Olivia's been away from her web audience for the last 5 months(!!!!), she's been living life pretty fully. We moved out of our house in Cambridge at the end of April, traveled around England for about a month, then went to the West coast of the US for a month, then stayed in temporary digs on the East coast (MA) for a month, before finally landing here in Hanover, NH at our slightly-less-temporary home here. It's a rental house owned by Dartmouth College where we'll stay until we find a house to buy.

Through all of this upheaval, Olivia's been sailing with flying colors. Oh yeah, and in the midst of all this Papa's spent 2 weeks in Greenland and 2 1/2 weeks in the Canadian Rockies teaching a field course.

More pictures are on our Flickr photo page, but here are a couple from our life here:


On the back lawn. Our house is set back in the woods off the road, a short walk from Dartmouth. Not a lot of lawn but it's been fun!















Suzanne and Olivia getting to read on the couch (which came from FreeCycle) in our living room. Olivia continues to devour books , and it's always fun to have some reading time after dinner and before bed.
