2012 UPDATE!!

We are still here and definitely kicking!!  It is already MAY...can not really believe that...but dealing with it!...As always with four growing children, we have been busy!  Keith and I try to spend some quality time together like right now as we are sitting in the Living Room together he is working on his computer on  a project and I am working on this blog that I haven't touched in a while.  We are really good at this quality time thing...LOL!

    Jon is playing both JV and Varsity lacrosse! It is so much fun to watch and see his excitement for the team! His summer league is going to take him to NC and Huntsville...so excited to use it as an excuse to see Elizabeth!! (yes it is all about ME!! LOL) He is almost a sophomore ready to drive and getting better.  Jon is, should I dare say enjoying school, He is a great young man..and a joy to be around! His small group at church is absolutely fabulous and he loves his small group leaders!!!  Thanks Dustin, Steven, and Patrick!! you guys rock!!

Anna is becoming a wonderful young woman.  She just finished her first season as a track runner.  I am not so sure she will run track again though.  Although she did hint around that she was going to try to run Cross Country in the fall.  She is doing great in school and is a member of the National Beta Club.  She has gotten to where she loves to read!! Going to see the midnight showing of The Hunger Games was a great fun time for Jon, Anna and I!!

Jessica is into her 5th month of cheer tumbling.  She and I spend some of our days outside working on what she needs to accomplish.  She is so close to landing her back walk over with out slowing down.  She wanted to work on some jumps on Sat so she and I went out front and I showed her how to do the jumps.. It was fun especially the fact that I still can do them....he he he... Jessica is a whiz in school she also has straight A's and she has a great homework ethic.  She is going to become a great young woman!!

Christian is a little Rock Star who is always going and running in many different directions.  He also just ran his first season of track and did well too....man those meets could go really long... He is a great Lacrosse player as well and has a tournament to play in this weekend.  He is so excited to play then and he loves his team!!  He plays Middie and loves it...but also likes to play attack.  In school, Christian is doing a fantastic job He often brings home hundreds on all of his papers, yes it gets monotonous after a while!! He is a smart young boy who is very inquisitive and wants to know so many different things? He just asked me the other day if Santa was real!!

Oh yea, they all are on the swim team and practice starts this Monday....Yes life is crazy...We have also had the extra challenge of Mike being in a car accident and confined to a wheel chair since March 2. He is getting better by the day, but he still has to have prettty much 24 hour assistance.Well, that brings us up to date for now...I will try to do better at keeping this updated..
