Wow- I am actually doing a blog for our family!!!! How exciting is this???? Well, Here we are in Pennsylvania, enjoying being together as a family. The kids are all doing well. Pictures to come soon.

Quick Updates::

Kenzer: Just finishing up a season of field hockey. She loved it and will probably do it again next year. Having a Halloween party at the end of the month.

Kenyon: Busy with school and guitar. He is getting better every time I turn around. Loves to play football with the neighborhood boys after school on the "Hoopes field".

Hailey: Is in 1st grade and is learning to read very well and do some simple math. She is in the "off season" for soccer. She loves to play with Shelby and Calvin when she gets home from school.

Shelby: Is my biggest helper ever. Seriously, I am really going to miss her when she goes to school next year. She is a great sister to Calvin..........most of the time. She is busy learning at home with mom.

Calvin: Is the family cutie patootie. He is growing like a little weed. Favorite pastime: to get into everything possible. We have a climber on our hands, who has earned the nickname "wedgie" because he wedges himself up into places he shouldn't be!!!
