What We've Been Up To

January has flown by! We continue to enjoy BEAUTIFUL weather! (Sorry, couldn't resist.) Many people still ask us how we are all doing, have we adjusted to a new home, etc. We are doing great and feel very blessed! Though it takes time to adjust, create a new home, make new friends, etc. we are all feeling thankful and that we are where God wants us. Anyway, here are some highlights of our lives lately...
Kam is playing on one of the fourth/fifth grade co-ed soccer teams. The skill level of these players ranges from those who play on a club team to those who are just now wearing their shin guards underneath their socks instead of over their jeans. Kamryn enjoys playing with kids from school and it's been fun to watch their progress in learning to play together.
Their awesome coach, Mr. Wiers, going over the finer points of "de-bunching."
I was invited to take part in a bread making class last Saturday morning. It was great to get to know many women from church better and also to learn how to bake bread from a pretty easy recipe. (My kids said it was ALMOST as good as Grandma R's.)

Kamryn worked hard on "her best book report ever."
And we have literally been watching the grass grow in our backyard. It's SO wonderful to have green lawn out our back window. There's even more now. We'll continue to document the progress!

Love the description of the soccer squad...very accurate. Thanks for the compliment, although "coach" might not be the appropriate term. I think of my job as more of a substitution coordinator and babysitter of 4th graders.
