Update on the Gentry's
Hey y’all!!
Things are going pretty well here in Southern Utah. It’s starting to cool off. Before we know it, we may have to actually start wearing long pants – maybe even a light jacket! Like my Grandpa Gentry always says: when it’s cool in Dixie, it’s a nice place to be (cause everywhere else is frozen)!
The big news around our house is the much anticipated release of Son 1.3 in the next couple of weeks. We put in our order with the Manufacturer nine months ago, and we are finally near the top of the list – big demand for these things, you know. We are told it should be delivered some time around October 23. Amber is hoping it will be a little sooner than that – she is positively swelling with excitement and about to explode with anticipation. She can hardly contain herself. I think our system is ready for the new download. We executed the set-up file months ago - it’s always bigger and more complicated than it seems - and we are clearing space in our memory banks for new input. Our previous versions are busy trying to calculate a good file name. Daughter 1.1, especially, is very excited. She’s got that motherin’ program down pat. She will be a big help.
We are really looking forward to trying out this new version. If it is anything like Son 1.1, Son 1.2, and Daughter 1.1, it will be a unique and unparalleled experience. We’ve been so pleased with the previous versions that it’s hard for us to imagine any improvements, but you know that Manufacturer – He’s pretty clever – we are expecting to be pleasantly surprised. Maybe this one will come already potty-trained, or, better yet, with a troubleshooter program already installed. Those would be nice upgrades. Anyway, we’re keeping our fingers crossed and the Manufacturer’s customer service number on speed-dial, just in case. We’ll let you know how it runs once we’ve worked out all of the bugs.
Christian’s ninth birthday is on Saturday. I can’t believe he has grown enough that I actually remember being his age. Time flies. I remember my dad saying to me the same things I tell him. Funny, I finally understand what he was trying to tell me. It all seems to come back around (hopefully not the receding hairline).
Christian and Ethan are in school and both doing very well. Christian is playing the piano like he was born for it, and Ethan is beginning to read well. They are both outstanding sons and good examples to their friends. We love them very much. Rebekah is in pre-school and loving it. She is learning her letters and is a beautiful, delightful young girl. She’s got her daddy hooked. We love her very much.
We love you all, and we hope we will be able to see some or all of you during the upcoming holidays. If not, we hope you understand that we are with you in spirit, and you are always in our thoughts and prayers.
God bless you all. Love Always,
Eric, Amber, Christian.exe, Ethan.exe, Rebekah.exe, and ?.exe
