A chronicle of the life and times of Billy, Kate, and Maryn Smith (and Graycie the Italian Greyhound). We wanted a good way to share with family and friends as we undertake our newest adventure - moving to far-away Indiana for Billy to go to school at the University of Notre Dame. "But I trust in you, O Lord; I say, 'You are my God.' My times are in your hand; [...] Oh, how abundant is your goodness, which you have stored up for those who fear you." - Psalm 31:14-15,19

Pray for India
My beautiful & talented younger sister Hannah is planning a missions trip to India this summer. She'll be there for 3 months living in an orphange, working with kids, teaching English, & also leading photography courses. And hopefully there will be many opportunities to share the gospel with those around her. She needs to raise about $4000 for the trip. As a fundraiser, she has designed these really great t-shirts, shown here. I am modeling the shirt as it will look if you have eaten a few too many burritos, she is modeling the shirt for you skinny people out there. :) So, if you want a shirt, they are $12 - let me know!

Blog Intro
We never thought we'd enter the world of "bloggers". But at the hinge of a major life change, we thought it might be a good way to keep in touch and share life with our friends & family. Yes, I guess this is the official announcement. As of this week, Billy has formally accepted a fully funded fellowship offer for PhD candidate in American history at the University of Notre Dame in South Bend, Indiana. So come August 2010 we'll be packing up (with a new baby in tow) and moving from Norman, OK to South Bend. Billy's PhD will likely take 5 years to complete. So...let the adventures begin!
