November 10, 2010

Well about time I got back to posting. Thank you for not nagging!
Greg was re-elected. Yeah! He's working hard to keep things moving. It seems very common for new people to throw out old ideas. We have a master plan they have been working on for four years and it's about ready to be set into action. It would stink to have all that time and money end up in a recycle bin. I hope they get going on it. Our schools are in terrible shape.
The girls are doing great. Both are in Drama at school and it looks like Stage Manager Elizabeth may work her sewing talents into making new curtains for the Drama Club. Cool! She just got an award, 2nd place for AR points in her school. She and Katie have a new piano teacher and are doing fun new things.
Alex is currently in Indianapolis for a band competition. We made him chocolate chip cookies to take with him. If you live nearby, come on over, he saved some for us too! Can you believe it?
Philip is doing well on his mission. There are some couple missionaries nearby who have a blog. Bless them. He got our box, now we're sending a priority box to see how long it takes to see if we can send him cookies. It's all he's asked for. He is in Greasewood, AZ, which is technically in the middle of nowhere, and he's driving a truck over some pretty primitive roads. He and his companion are teaching at a Navajo reservation and put 80 miles a day on their truck. He's having the best two years of his life!He has sent five pictures, but they're too big to upload, I have to reinstall Picasa and try that. (I uninstalled it because my printer was doing weird things, but uninstalling it didn't help so I might as well keep using it.)
If you want a calendar for Christmas and you're not related by blood or marriage, give me a call. I have them on the way. Pictures of my cute kids. I finished at midnight so if they turn out goofy that's why. At least the pics will be cute. Greg made me change the order (Hey, that one looks cold and it's in July! What were you thinking?) so now I worry the captions weren't changed. Oh well it will be interesting. Next year it will just be the three kids unless we Photoshop Philip in or buy a cardboard stand-up of him to carry to photo shoots. Feel free to make your preference known!
Obviously it's getting late again so I better quit rambling. Blogger often loses my text when I go long.
Would love to hear how you are doing. Miss you. So busy I don't know if I'll ever catch up! H
