QUICK UPDATE!

Catching up is not one of the things I like to do but, I realize that I haven't blogged in quite a while so I will have to play the catch up game! our lives are not all that interesting lately so I guess it won't be too hard.

Kevan has taken a job part time delivering for Streets of New York. He seems to enjoy it since all he has to do is deliver and the tips are good. I enjoy the free soda he brings me each night he works! He is still part time with Coke but, found out yesterday that he will begin as a full time employee on Feb. 22nd so we are thrilled about that. The bad news is that for six months he has to take full time probationary pay which is about three dollars less then what full time makes. So until October we will still be pinching pennies that have already been pinched. We will have benefits though and that is a relief.

Keaton is just doing outstanding in school and is almost getting straight A's. I am true believer now that a good teacher makes all the difference. He is still enjoying scouts and is anxious to become a Webelo in June. He is one who is constantly asking when winter will be over as he can't wait to get back into the pool.

Bailey is improving in Math at school and we are so proud of her hard work. She donated 11 1/2 inches of her beautiful hair to Locks for Love a bout a month ago. Although I love the ease of washing short hair I miss being able actually style and do her long hair. She still loves Brownies and would like to continue it into next year. She is excited about getting baptized this summer too. Her biggest news is that she FINALLY has a loose tooth. We never thought it would happen but it finally has. She can't wait to get money for it when it falls out!

I am still teaching preschool but I teach 3 days now instead of 2 and I'm enjoying that as always! I am starting to enjoy my calling in primary. I guess I just needed to make the adjustment of having no Sunday calling to having one each week. I am now in the process of Spring cleaning our bedroom closet. Getting Kevan to go through his things has been the challenge in this task but, I'm determined to make more room.

We have enjoyed the warmer weather and it has made me more excited for the heat that will be right around the corner once Spring actually arrives!
