It's been a wonderful, busy summer, and we really should tell you all about it sometime soon. We will.
...But not in this post.
Instead, this is to let everyone know that we have finally got a photo gallery back online for everyone to view! We expect it will get updated quite regularly, since we take photos quite often and uploading them for everyone else to see is really easy. I (Jon) hope to get more of our older photos uploaded soon.
In the "Recent Updates to Jon and Beth's Gallery" section of our blog here you will see the latest five albums in our gallery that have had anything new put in them, and the date when that happened. Click a link to go straight to the album.
If you want to be notified automatically about new updates to our photo gallery, go to the main gallery page and click on the big "Subscribe to Updates" button in the upper right corner. This will add an automatically updating subscription to our gallery in your web browser that will let you see at a glance when something is updated.

Elena's Easter!
We had a wonderful Easter this year. Though this was Elena's second Easter technically, she was only a few months old last time so this was her first Easter where she could actually do the egg hunt and everything. We dressed her up in a strawberry dress her Grandparents Moskowitz gave her and she LOVED the dress. As you can see she enjoyed standing in front of the mirror and spinning around to watch her dress spin. She also had fun running down the halls of our condo building. After our Easter morning, we had Easter dinner at her Grandparents Stovell's house with the Stovell family. As you can see in some of the pictures, she had fun riding on her Uncle Garrett's back while he did push-ups. She also had fun finding chocolate easter eggs all over the living room and spent about half an hour playing a game of giving the eggs to each of us and then putting them back in her container and giving them to someone else. It was FUN!
On another note, Beth has officially finished her first year of her PhD! She wrote her last paper yesterday and turned it in. She's feeling very relaxed now. Jon is still finishing his last papers this week, but will be done soon.

Hello All,
We just wanted to correct an oversight. In all our busyness with moving this summer, we forgot to mention our visit from my Aunt Julie Wilgen this past June. Aunt Julie visited us at our apartment in Vancouver. She stayed in a lovely bed and breakfast within walking distance of our place which made it easy to take walks together down to Commercial Drive for several lovely meals. Aunt Julie is Beth's aunt (one of her mother's sisters). Aunt Julie and Beth have always shared a special bond as Aunt Julie is a professor at the University of Delaware. Both Aunt Julie and Uncle Michael have given us much encouragement as we pursue our academic careers which has been so special!
During Aunt Julie's trip, she and Beth got a chance to see a performance of Romeo and Juliet at Bard on the Beach. The play took place under a tent on a beach in Vanier Park. The play took place at sunset and we could see the sun setting behind the actors as they performed. It was quite amazing! She also spent time with our little Elena. In the picture, Aunt Julie took us out to one of our favorite restaurants. Vancouverites will recognize Fetz immediately by the crazy murals of the Rolling Stones behind us.
Elena is SOO little in this picture! We are looking forward to another visit from Aunt Julie this August to our new place in Ontario!
Love to all,
The Stovells
