First Attempt



A picture of Anja,Megan,and I at the gymnastics banquet.

My friend Tricia has wanted me to start a blog for a long time now. So here goes...

The girls are still busy with gymnastics. Megan will be competing level 5 this year and practices over 16 hours a week. Anja will be in her first year of competition as a level 4. Jackie is on pre-team but I think she likes soccer better. Jacob takes one class a week just until he is old enough for soccer, t-ball, football, or something. He likes it okay.

This year I have enrolled the kids in a public charter school. They will go to school one day a week and be with me the other 4. It is mastery based so they can work at their level. I will have teacher support so that is a good thing. My only bummer is that I will have to be on a public school schedule.

Pete is in Virginia until the end of August. He is taking some military course. Typical me, I can't remember the name of it. He is studying hard. Lucky for me my mom is coming for the month of August to help me out.

I am busy being a housekeeper, cook, taxi driver, schedule planner, referee, etc. I love my jobs and being home with the kids. I count it as a huge blessing.

Cool Crystal. It is great to see your family...if only in pictures! We are hoping to make it to Hawaii before you PCS again.

Hola Crystal! I can't believe how much they have grown and how sweet and innocent they all look. Specially Megan she looks so different. I hope she can remember Landon & Logan. It seems like it was yesterday when we spent time in Wichita. We're doing great. DC is not the greatest place but it'll do; traffic its a bear. We're in Virginia and will be here for a while.
