1. exhaustion from school. 2 weeks and 2 days of classes left, and we are ready to be done. things couldn't get any crazier than they are right now at school.
2. moved into a new apartment. we now can walk to school and don't have to take care of a cat. its also very nice. we're happy with it.
3. we shared good news in strange ways at school this past week. ask about that when we get home.
4. i wrote a song about prime numbers. also booked a show for July 31st in east peoria. you can hear the new song at www.myspace.com/bobandmarie
5. i finished reading god & empire by john dominic crossan and began reading the formation of hell. i also am close to finishing a little book called becoming the answer to our prayers by shane claiborne and jonathan wilson-hartgrove. take these as suggestions or books to avoid.
6. starting a new family... in a few months. 2 daughters on the way!
(daughters means 2 of our friends pictures above are moving in... sorry moms!)
7. wadi mujib. perhaps the coolest thing we've done yet in jordan. basically its hiking through a canyon in a river and up waterfalls without any equipment or guide. injury-prone people should avoid this at all costs.
8. umpired a few baseball games. not too rewarding, but it was nice to be around the game again.
9. started playing chicken foot dominoes and can't stop.
10. appeared via video at chris and lauren mackey's wedding... i hope that was fun.
we'll be home in a few short weeks, and we can't wait to relax, ride bikes, and hang out with everyone.

What did you think of the Crossan? I've read his "Revolutionary Biography of Jesus". Have you read any Stanley Hauerwas? I'd strongly suggest The Peaceable Kingdom.
