LeTourneau - Part II

A welcome sign in Tyler's dorm.......

The completed loft in Tyler's and Nate's room



Tyler (nicely made bed!!) and Nate have their beds upstairs and everything else downstairs.

Registration day

Registration line (I noticed the guys definitely outnumbered girls. Because LeTourneau is an engineering school, this is one well-known fact about the student body)!

LeTourneau University Part I

Tyler and I are in Longview, TX, getting him set up at LeTourneau University. We arrived on Sunday for International Student Orientation.

Every parent has to take the obligatory picture by the school sign, right?!

Tyler's dorm

...which happens to be called Tyler Hall!

Tyler's room



Most of the guys on Tyler's floor build these massive lofts in their rooms because the rooms have very high ceilings that allow for this. Tyler and Co. will probably build his loft tonight. Once built, the beds go up in the loft. If you have claustrophobic issues, this isn't for you!

Tyler's roommate, Nathan, with his mom and Grandma. Nate is an MK from Mexico.

Tyler turns 19!

Yesterday was Tyler's 19th Birthday! The day was rather uneventful, but we still had a fun time! Happy Birthday, Tyler!
He is off to college tomorrow! How can this be?!




This morning I had to buy several pillows to fill up suitcases (and because we needed them). I took this picture of Tyler in Target. He is testing a pillow for comfort to make sure its the right one for college!

A Sunday drive through Amish country

Today we went on a long drive through Amish country near Burton, Ohio. Here is a glimpse of what we saw.


One of the many immaculate Amish farms that we drove by





























We bought some fresh sweet corn and enjoyed it for supper tonight!
