Hello

Well, I've been bad and haven't posted at all even though I promised last August or Sept. We have been extremely busy!! We now have a friend in Scotland and blogging so I thought I would update ours since I'm using this blog address to post on hers.

Kelsie is doing well, played soccer in the Fall and is now in basketball. It is a lot of fun even if it is 8:30 on Saturday mornings. She had her 2nd piano recital in December and it was a fun little party and good concert with players from all skill levels. Wayne is busy with work and doing leadership development with iplace ministries. I am still working at FBC Aledo although it's not the full-time job we all thought it would be and that's a good thing. It's very flexible and I've been able to be off when Kelsie is off and when I am needed as her room mom for field trips and events. My job is fun and I'm learning a lot of new graphics software. Bogey i s doing well after our summer hospitalization. He has gained all his weight back and is very active - sometimes as 3 a.m. when he has slept all day.

Well, we got a few new toys. We got a Nintendo Wii which we have all loved playing - Wayne is now a tennis pro. Kelsie likes Monkey Ball and I like bowling. The second toy is that we finally came into this century with a digital camera. I am learning how to use it and post pics so I promise (and this time I will keep it!) to post pics as soon as I figure it out. Hope you are doing well, love to hear from you......
