Catch Up

It's been a couple weeks since my last post, so I'll do a little catching up. The girls have received their first quarter report cards and I am so super dooper proud of them!! 

Kimmer got 5 A's, 2 B's and 1 high C!!!!  That is so fantastic for her!!  She has worked so hard this year!!!  Her course load this year on top of the four core classes are German, Piano, Dance and Violin.  Now you may think those all seem like easy A classes, ummmm, not at her school.  GREAT JOB KIMMER!!!  Kimmer has just tried out and made a club league volleyball team in our area.  She is so excited, I love to watch her play.  She comes out of her shell and works the court like she was born on it!  She gets all her athletic ability from her dad.  She will start practice late this month or early next.

Kenzie got 3 A's and 3 B's, she's starting off great.  She is in the 4th grade and since she was in Kindergarten I remember her talking about wanting to earn the "Citizen of the Quarter" award.  This is an award the teachers pick for outstanding students.  She has talked about this for over four years, not just talked she is working at trying to earn it.  Well, Friday at the awards assembly she finally won!!!  She was so excited!!  I was so excited for her, but I was really aggravated at myself.  I missed the assembly!!!  I didn't go because I dressed up for my work costume contest as "Thing 1" and had bright blue hair.  I didn't want to embarrass her or myself so I chose not to go.  :(  She never said anything about me not being there, but I sure felt horrible.

We haven't had anyone look at our house.  I'm not sure what to think of that, but I know we've followed what God wanted us to do, so now we'll just wait.  I sure hope that we don't get a call on the days when I leave for work with dirty dishes in the sink, laundry on the counter, beds not made and the shoes in the living room.  Then I'll have to make a lunch trip home to tidy up.

Me?  Well, work has been crazy busy the last couple weeks.  One of my employees was offered another job in a different department, so I am having to interview for a replacement, keep my stuff up and am starting to assume some of her duties until everything is covered again.  I enjoy staying busy, it sure helps the day go by faster and then I get to go home and hang with my family.

Well, not much has gone on so I think I've caught up Mr. Blog for now.

Happy Thanksgiving!  I love the holiday seasons we are approaching (not the weather).  I love spending time with my family both immediate and extended.  I can already smell the turkey and dressing cooking!!  YUM!
