Summer time!

Wow, the summer is almost over! Alexis has been working at the school through a youth work program. She cleans desks, chairs, and lockers Mon-Thurs from 9-12. She hates the work but loves the paycheck! (welcome to the real world) She attended a Switch Foot concert at the Sonshine festival with a youth group. She loved it and wants to go next year and camp for the whole weekend. Tyler has been hanging out with his friends. He put an ad in the paper to look for work, he will be starting some yard work in town for a gentleman to earn some $$. He's going to Ridgewater Fun Camp this week as long he stays healthy. Caleb turned 7 on July 12th! He's learned how to ride go-kart and 4-wheeler all by himself, he can't get enough of it. Leif comes to visit every other week. He learned to drive the go-kart too! He is a very cautious driver. Caleb & Leif have been attending Club 218. They play ball, do crafts, eat meals, sing, read, and have lots of FUN. Last week they went bowling with the Club! Next month they will start swimming lessons. Kamaya turned 1 on June 28 and was baptized all on the same day! She is growing and learning so quickly! Tom & I celebrated our 14th wedding anniversary on June 7th! I've been working instead of staying home for summer vacation, taking applications for new students this fall. Tom has been working on go-karts, 4-wheelers, and dirt bikes all summer. Our family is growing so fast and I sure wish there was more time in a day/week/month/year!

Sorry it's been so long

Well, winter sports are ending and children are growing up way to fast! Leif turned 6 on Valentine's day, we had fun at Chuck E. Cheese.
Caleb had his first wrestling meet at the Hutch Open and got a 4th place trophy.

Alexis turned 14 and had a party at home with friends.
Tyler is working hard at his grades to get on the A honor roll and still looking for a sport he loves.
Kamaya is crawling and walking around on the furniture.
Tom & I are running around being crazy parents.

Gotta love MN winters!!!

Well it's been a very chilly week. School has been 2 hours late and even cancelled one day. The wind chills made the temperature get down to -30s. Crazy MN winters! Brrrrrrrrrrr! Hope you all are staying warm.

2009 Is Here!!

We send our love and warm wishes for a new year!!!
