Well, it is almost February and I finally got my Christmas ornaments off my tree. No the Christmas tree isn't actually down yet, but that is a start right? Pathetic - I know!!! The upstairs is a total disaster with Christmas bins everywhere. My goal is to have it all put away in the next couple of days. (didn't I say that last week?) :-)
The kids are doing great! Jordan finished with her first semester and got all A's on her report card. Paige continues to paint, paint, paint! She has a project on the solar system due this week, and of course she wanted to do a painting. I told her to just start it in her art class on Friday and we could finish it over the weekend. To my surprise she came home from art and it was all finished! Yeah! Chase had his second basketball game Saturday. He was a rebound king! He did great! He is so fun to watch....I don't think I have ever seen a little guy run faster up and down the court. We are talking full on sprint. Tonight we did get to go to his "great to be 8" meeting. I can't believe my little Chase will be getting baptized this year. CRAZY! Code-man is loving going to work with me. Every morning he wakes up and asks, "are we going to work today?" One he gets to play the wii with a little buddy, and two he loves to "help me work". He actually gets paid sometimes!
All in all we are doing great! Life is busy, the kids are great, and we are happy! What more can you ask for!
Paige wanted to give her painting to her teacher at school, but Rick likes it so much he is hoping she will give it to him to hang in his office at work
Chase hustles up and down that court....he had a great game!
