I've been slacking lately and have had a difficult time finding time to update the blog and download pictures. Now that I'm 95% caught up, let's talk about what's going on with the family.
Me...
*working my butt off.
*almost 13 years in education and I have not only my 1st due process hearing coming up, but my 2nd and 3rd as well. How fun!!!
*enjoying the finished products in our backyard and looking forward to putting grass down in March
*wishing I had more time to spend with friends on the weekend. But still enjoying watching sports.
*really wanting to get away for a quick vacation. See bullet #2 and the reason why I can't get away!!!
Bryan...
*not sure if it's been mentioned previously but Bryan was promoted to the shop foreman at his dealership. GO HIM!
*staying busy with work but enjoying the new position.
*working on getting all of the things in place in the new garage and trying to find time to install the new car lift.
Raegan...
*finishing her basketball season in 2nd place. One last tournament before it's done for the season.
*finishing up her winter futsal season. Not sure what place they are in. Again, a tournament coming up soon.
*finishing up the winter indoor season. They are in first and will take first place when all is said and done.
*continuing with tumble/cheer class once a week. Doing her standing back handspring by herself at class. Not yet transferring that skill outside of class.
*continuing to do well in school. Finished the 3rd 6 weeks with all As. Rocking out her benchmarks. Making great progress in GATES.
*just finished running her business at Beckopoly with her friend Natalie. Duct Tape Creations made 85 Beck Bucks!!
Samantha...
*continuing with gymnastics once a week. Enjoying going and making progress. Working on her cartwheel!
*enjoying time at Ms. Sherry's house and talking about going to her new school next year.
*DRAMA. Taking the #1 position in the family as drama queen.
*causing problems at bedtime. Lucky to be alive most days.
Mallory...
*doing her cartwheel. Coach Jessica says she will need to move up to a higher level class soon!
*perfecting her roll as the boss. Having no problems bossing others around all the time.
*pretty mellow most of the time but continues to have a very short fuse. She hears "stop crying" often and is really good at turning the water works off with counting.
An update from the construction is that everything is done. The pool has had water in it for a few weeks now. There is a spot on the bottom of the pool that might need to be fixed. We're waiting to hear back from Paul about it. The garage is done and looks great. The carlift is there but needs to be installed. The fairlane and all of the things in storage have been cleared out. The Futura still needs to make it's way here from the Sharer house. Hopefully soon. We plan to start landscaping soon. Sod will go down in March when the weather is a little more predictable. We also need to do the fence along the dog run. But it all looks so nice. Although we've gone way over budget, I'm glad we had everything done. We have our own little oasis in our backyard. As far as swimming goes, I have been in as well as all of the little girls. It was rather cold but I had to teach the dogs how to get out. Shady has also fallen in and I had to rescue her fully clothed. Levi goes in whenever he is allowed in the backyard. He just loves swimming and it doesn't bother me to have him in the pool.
