We having fun!

We have been having a great time the past couple of weeks. The kids were out of school for over a week becuase of IKE and we took advantage of the time. We went to College Station (Home of Texas A&M) to visit the George H.W. Bush Preisdential Library. It was very fun! We also went to San Antonio to see some of our friends from Notre Dame. It was a fun week.


We got back to real life when school started again. Reportcards came home for the first time. It seems too soon for that already! I am at the elementary school three days a week volunteering and I love it. I spend my other time keeping the house, yard, and family in order.


Jer and Jesi are doing great! Jer had a couple friends over on Friday and they decided they wanted to swim. So they ran home to get their suits. The next thing I knew we were hosting a swim party for about 10 kids in the neighborhood. It was pretty fun. Jesi had her suit on and was outside a little too quick for my liking when she saw about six boys her age out there. This boy/girl twin thing can be tricky. Jer and Jesi are trying out for the drama troupe this week. So, lets keep our fingers crossed.


Coy has made a couple friends in our neighborhood as well. He also started chior at school. I am really surprized, becuase he doesn't usually like that sort of thing, but he is really enjoying it. School is going good for him. They are very structured at Katy Elementary and it has been great for him. I don't ever have to worry about what he is supposed to be doing. He is always right on top of it.


Caleb is just awesome. He wants to do everything. Right now he is working on a poster for a contest at school. He is very diligent and puts time into it everyday. He left his bike out last week and it got ran over by a car. He was so sad, but he had enough money to chip in for half of a new bike, so we helped him out with the rest and he loves it!


Nanna is on two wheels now! I am so excited! One of my favorite things is to go on bike rides after dinner. Some of the kids choose to swim and other bike. Nanna isn't quite ready to go all over the neighborhood, but she will be soon. Nanna also got her first love note. She came up to me with it cupped in her hands and said, "A boy at school loves me." It was pretty funny. This little boy is by her side when ever he can be. It is pretty funny, but I am keeping my eye on him!


Lastly, We are loving General Conference! The talks yesterday were amazing! We are also very excited about our football teams (BYU and ND). They are both doing good, especially BYU. Chad and I are trying to work out going to the TCU v BYU game in Dallas in a couple weeks. It should be fun! I'll post pictures.


That's about it! Hope you enjoy the update and the pictures!
