Columbus Day at the Park

With a week off for fall break after a busy first quarter of the semester, we spent Columbus Day morning at the park. We walked from the Broadway to 22nd and played before we ran some errands and went home for lunch.
Tucson Meet Yourself

Tucson Meet Yourself, one of our favorite Old Pueblo events, ran over the weekend. Rebecca and I went alone Friday night when I ate Columbian, Korean, Tohono O’odham, and Thai. We ran into two of my excellent students from last year, Sam and Miriam, both now seniors set to graduate next May. And we met two of my students from Pueblo, Deserie (my student all four of her years as a Warrior), who’s hoping to become a lawyer instead of a pediatrician, as she’d dreamed of long ago, and Melissa, who wasn’t my student proper but whom I knew and who joined us as Deserie’s friend in Europe in 2005. They’re both seniors in college, set to graduate too.

We picked up some new pajamas for the boy, and he was very proud to model them.

Rebecca’s been wanting to realize a traditional Ethiopian recipe. She made honeybread to much acclaim.

Zufan’s hair’s finally becoming long enough to play with; Rebecca’s experimenting with ponytails for now.

Another visit to Dr. Geisert today and more sticks to the arms. Debabu and Zufan were unsuspecting as always, until the the needles came out.

Sleeping children are a ridiculous excuse to post pictures, but it’s hard to resist the charm of my son and daughter even when they’re napping.

Zufan tried feeding herself her and her brother’s favorite treat tonight, applesaucey, as Debabu calls it, for the first time tonight.
Swimmin’

Summer-time is pool-time. Rebecca’s Mom treated us to burgers and swimming a recreation club in town just before Mother’s Day. We forgot the camera that time which was unfortunate because there were a few missed moments like Zufan immediately sticking her face in the water when she hit the wading pool. We remembered the camera next time we went to Grandma Arleen’s though.
