long time no see

Ok. Everyone who gets an alert that I have a new blog up will definately be surprised when they see that I have returned to the land of blogging! I apologize for NOT exposing my clever thoughts to the world of cyber affairs....My computer was not working and I have been extremely busy.

Thankfully, summer has arrived and I can slow down for at least the moment and update all 3 of my fans! HAHA Let me see, to recap all that has gone on in my life. Katelynn took art, piano, and dance (ballet, tap and jazz) almost the entire school year. She LOVED it immensely until it was time to actually GO to those lessons. She made it through the year and thankfully we have a little break from all three (or 5...however you want to look at it). She made it through the 4th grade and passed her LEAP. Thank the LORD for that!!! I am not a fan of pass/fail standardized testing but that is whole other blog!

Aaron started in the spring of this year, baseball and karate. His baseball season ended with 3rd place out of probably 12-15 teams. He was excited! His granny and mama were excited as well! His karate is a slow go but hopefully we will be able to go more this summer. He is enjoying actually having somewhere to go instead of just going along for the ride while taking sissy everywhere. Also my baby boy is officially a first grader!!!!

I joined ADDlife gym about a month ago. I am in dire need of some exercise and they have an awesome pool that the kids can use all summer! It has proven to be a lifesaver for both the kids and I! Plus my sister and her two daughters have a membership so I can bring them with me.

Deron started a new job with a new company in January. While he had been with his previous employer for more than 13 years, it was clearly time to move on. God presented Deron with a fantastic opportunity and after prayer, he decided to go for it. This made it possible for me to stay at home with the kids and so I am enjoying my summer with my babies! I have already been to wisconsin and back to see my oldest nephew graduate! Plus we are going to Branson in July and HOPEFULLY I will get a surprise getaway out of Deron in the next little bit! So this new job has enabled us to do more which I am very thankful for. God never makes mistakes and I am seeing that more and more in our lives!

Everyone else is doing well and I hope this Blog finds you doing fantastic! I think I will start (if my computer holds out) leaving verses from time to time. I have found that no matter what I think I am searching for, God always gives me the answer I NEED in His Word! Have a great week!!!

til next time!
