What's going on...

Sorry I've yet to post pictures from Matt's party. But to be honest, I haven't even looked at them yet. I hope to do that this week...so stay tuned :)

Here's what's been going on...

Natalie - Had her first pep rally last Tues. She was very excited and said they did really well. And here's the kicker...the principle only allows 2...yes 2!! peprallys a year. How odd is that? So she was bummed to find that out..I was to. Cause I didn't go to this past one cause I thought we'd have many more to get to go see. Plus, the jr. hill drill team doesn't perform at jr. high games. But, she is on the Jr. Dolls team and they are supposed to perform in at least 2 high school game half times. That I'm really looking forward to. She's really enjoying her advanced ballet classes that she's taking at the dance center. And she's loving the journalism "team". She has an official badge that she wears around her neck and that gives her permission to take pictures at school anytime anywhere!

Matthew - He is doing fantastic at baseball...and loving it. They had their first game weekend before last and Matt was the first kid to get a hit and he got an RBI! Of course this happens just as I was getting Nat from dance class and on my way back to the game...so I missed it, but Jim got pictures for me. He has a game this Saturday and he's pumped...so are we :) He's doing so good with guitar. He's so ready to start on a song and the teacher said he's ready. So hopefully at today lesson that's what they will work on. He's saving up all his b-day $$ so he can buy an electric guitar and amp...and he's just chomping at the bit to do this!!! He made the mural team at school. And from what I understand, they are going to be painting a mural on one of the walls at school. They haven't started yet, but this should be pretty cool.

Brayden - He has a new love...Thomas the Train and all his friends! He's watched Thomas for a while on DVDs, but now we are starting him a small collection and you'd think we gave him the world. Right now he has Edward, Emily, Elizabeth, and Duck. They are just the best ever. And to this little boy...choo-choos are IT! And they have been for a long time now. All the way back to the beginning of last school year when we used to got get Matt from school and the train would pass by as we were waiting in line to get him. At that time they were called Coo-Coos :)

There's a bunch more other things going on, but I haven't got that kinda time this morning. I'll try to get caught up on that stuff and Matt's party in a day or too.

Loved the post! The kids sound like they are thriving! We have a butt load of Thomas the train stuff that we need to pass on to Mr. Brayden! Brandon is getting out of the stage of playing with any of it. Lots of railroad pieces and train cars!

Hope you guys have a super week.
