9-30-08: Welcoming Leah

Leah

Longtime reader Grace and her husband Mitch recently welcomed their firstborn Leah into their lives. Mom and Baby are doing fine. Congratulations to the happy family! We at RHO love babies.

Christianne's Family (6-25-08): Robin met Christianne 17 years ago after she had just finished reading the Annals. Recently Christianne e-mailed Robin to let her know that daughter Charis is now reading them. Below are Christianne, her husband Gary, and their children Charis, Nevis and Tal on vacation. (Oldest daughter Savannah was out of town at the time.) Thanks for the update, Christianne! We love legacy readers.

Could any of these nice, normal-looking Oklahomans--Jeanne, Marie, Christy, Marilyn (with the deadly ball), Marv, or adorable children Jarod, Michaela, and Austin--be responsible for the collage of elbows below?? We'll never tell.

Robin's son-in-law, David, is a multitalented guy who enjoys (among other things) BMX biking and restoring his 1972 VW Beetle. Here, David and friend Tyler take a break from working on his Beetle to jump it.

You'll read a lot about our ugly dog, Buddy, on Robin's blog. See our other two dogs: Frodo here and Ginger here.

yum!

Crab Feast (10-19-05): Reader Sancia and her mom Sabina enjoy a crab feast (in landlocked Nebraska, courtesy of an aunt in Oregon). Sancia said, "The feast of crabs the Lystrans enjoyed the first night in Prie Mer [in Prisoners of Hope] made me long to quietly slip unobserved into a dark corner and join them.  I love seafood and when I was a little girl my mom taught me how to dismember lobster and crab with just my bare hands."
