Highlights

Wow...I did not realize how long it has been since I have updated the blog. This is because being a fulltime student, mother, and wife has taken over my life completely! I really am not complaining I love it...well accept for the school thing. I am truly ready for the end to be here. I am only going to touch base on the highlights of activities going on, so that you do not get board.

Liz - Drumming circle is in full swing and they have a complete line up of performances. The first one is next weekend and I will send pictures then. She is finishing up her soccer for the Fall season and has improved greatly! This team was such an improvement from that season! Again, pictures will be posted after her tournament on Tues Oct 9th. We have made it that she is to stay home and be part of the family at least one day on the weekend. This rule had to come about because she is such a young adult that staying home with the parents is not cool. She is home a lot but she usually has company with her. I am glad that we have a welcoming home that her friends like to be here. She has also discovered the movie theater with groups of friends. (this can get expensive:) She is pretty cool to hang out with too and I loved the comment the other day from her friend "you have a cool mom". Made my day anyway! Straight A's on all progress reports and her teachers do nothing but compliment. We have allowed her to quit piano because she is doing so well with the trombone and drumming circle it was getting to be to much. (she hated the piano)

Mikaela - Lost her first tooth in September (late bloomer; most of her friends have lost all theirs in the 1st grade, this was her first). She is a great student and her teacher said she has never had a student that follows the rules to the tea! She also has all A's and loves to read. She is still in Piano and gymnastics. She had her first meet of the season this Saturday and did well for the first one. She had some miss-haps but she enjoyed the heck out of it. She took 4th place in floor routine and her team took 1st place overall. This was against 20 other girls!






Ken- still doing Sunday school and Weds nights at the church. He holds down the fort when I am studying and trying to get assignments done. Still driving of course...and cant wait till I am graduate.

Thank you to everyone who supports us and understands that if I dont get emails off or phone calls made its not because I am slacking its because I really do not have a life right now!
