Letter to the Teacher
August 17, 2013
Dear Mrs. Tollefsen,
I am looking forward to being in your class this year. I am mostly excited about math I feel this way because I am better at math. I am least looking forward to reading.
I think you are a good teacher because Erik told me a lot about you. He told me that you are the best teacher in the world. You are very kind because you gave Erik a present in the hospitial when he was having surgery. You didn’t give him homework while he was in the hospitial either. I also think you are kind to the other 4th grade teachers because I can feel it in my guts. Next I think you are kind because you say nice things to every student in the classroom I think because Erik wanted to go to school more after the semester was over.
Next I think you are a good teacher because you are generous because sometimes you don’t give out homework on the first day of school because you want to meet us and know a lot about me and the rest of the students. I also think you are generous to the other teachers because I think if a teacher needs the computers you would give it to them. I also think you will let us sit where ever we want to sit on the first day to see our friends in class and talk for a bit. I know I will like this year because Erik liked it and I think I will too.
Your student,
Kurt Schnaubelt

Tahoe Vacation - 2013
At the start of this vacation, Annie and Kurt flew to Reno and spent time with the Morris families in Carson City and Gardnerville, then Annie attended her 25th high school reunion. Jeff, Peter, and Erik flew into Las Vegas, stayed at the Stratosphere, then visited the Pawn Stars shop and met the old man. Then it was off to Death Valley, Lone Pine, June Lake, and then Tahoe. Kurt and Frannie did Camp Skylandia, and the Schnaubelt and Gramanz boys did sailing camp. Music in the video is "Dreams" by the Cranberries.
Summer Fun
Summer just zipped by. The kids are back to school today, and I can't believe how fast it all went. Summer got kicked off by flying Popper's new Pacer back from Fitchburg Massachusetts in May. Then Peter and I checked an item off our bucket list by riding the tandem bicycle to the farm. We tried raising chickens, and got reunited with cousin Angela as she recovered from cancer treatment. A new sailboat, a couple triathlons, and great vacations to Grand Haven and Lake Tahoe.
