You can tell when life is too busy and I let several weeks go by without posting.
Life is busy but good!! We enjoyed a wonderful Foster Family Reunion last week in Madisonville. It was a wonderful day - no fishing, but we all enjoyed visiting, eating and singing. Grandma Petersen came with us and enjoyed the country living that occurs out on Arnold Foster's land.
My preparations for camp is in full swing. Two Steppin' Home is our theme this year and it is going to be a great year. I have awesome kids who put up with my camp songs and often requests them when we are traveling in the car. Ü
The inspections and approval of Jared's & Julianna's home is completed. It is a great home and we are so excited and recognize the hand of the Lord in inspiration, timing, and quickness that everything occurred.
Aimee did it!!!! She can ride her bike !!!! Thank you Kacie for your loving support and expert teaching skills!!!!
Darin had his first rain gutter regatta - he won one race and had a mighty fine looking boat!
Allan is enjoying the Hunger Game books - we went to see the movie last night and it was a lot of fun. We even got to see some teenagers get kicked out of the movie.
Kacie's choir made sweep stakes in their UIL competitions. Way to go Kacie!!!! We are a few month away now from her getting her license and so driving practice is going full speed ahead. She also got the highest grade in her class on a Chemistry exam. She received a 93 and the next closest grade was a 74.
Kacie shared with me a comment made by one her teacher this week. Kacie's teacher is one of the sponsors who works with the National Honor Society kids and Elena was in getting some of her service hours turned in. This teacher then tells Kacie that she needs to be just like her sister because she is so smart. That made both girls and their mom feel so good. Ü
Elena is putting out job applications left and right now. She has been busy with lots of babysitting and has taken on the job of teaching swimming lessons. She's been involved in a lot of service including school projects and going out with the missionaries.
Jeff has been super busy with work and church. He went to help a family move last night and due to miss communications, I missed out on a date night with him. He is a great man and I love him soooo much!!!
