Lot has happened

I have been lazy not writing for a couple of weeks. I just have been busy and I know that is not an excuse. The kids are healthy and growing. My Karina lost two teeth and she will be six in 4 days. We are having her birthday at build a bear. She is enjoying her basketball season on Fort Carson and her learn to ice skate lessons. Moira is in basketball and ice skating as well. David is still doing hockey and getting better. My two boys love to watch hockey on the big tv. We recently bought a 2009 Ford Mustang. It is a beauty. It is primarily Tim's car. Our 1995 Honda Accord blew up. All my catholic friends....start thinking about what to give up for Lent. I am going to try to give up sodas. I want to just drink tea, water and juice. I hope that I won't get a bad craving.....will power!!! During lent the kids must attend mass twice a week, Monday and Friday. They attend a catholic school. My parents will be here in several days. They are having their home remodeled and need some place to stay. The kids are anxious.

Goood Morning!

Hi, I know that it has been ages since I lasted posted any news. I have been extremely busy. I involved with the PTO and yesterday was sure busy. The school held a nice sock and hop in the gymnasium. My girls got all dressed up and we headed off to the event. I was in charge of the refreshment table. It was a fun evening. David and Tim went to a hockey game.....air force played the army. Army lost 5-1. The arena was packed, Go Army! David is currently in a nice etiquette class. He attends every Wednesday evening until March 21st at the Broadmoor Hotel. The Broadmoor is a gorgeous hotel.....top 5 star. (I get to chaperon this coming week. I have to get all dressed up and wear white gloves). The kids school sponsors this nice class. They learn the proper way to ask a girl to dance, table manners, etc. He is so handsome in his suit. He is learning the fox trot and the waltz. I took pictures of all these events. Also the two girls wanted to try basketball this year. They try their hardest. I will post pictures soon. Hope everyone is staying warm. The weather has been a bit mild....nice for us.

Life is busy, again

Hi, ALL. We are doing well. Back to school, hockey, scouts, music lessons...etc. Our girls started their first ice skating lesson this morning. I was more nervous than they were...they did awesome. David has sure got the whole family hooked on ice skating. My two men went to a local college hockey game last night and my son learns some great vulgar language. I have volunteered to be the newborn coordinator for Tim's work place. I have to go to a SF family readiness group this afternoon. I figured I would take the easiest job...it has to do with newborns. I have to take the nice gift from HHC to the family after their delivery. I like to take a nice fruit basket and welcome their new bundle of joy. Too easy! We will see if it is easy, I will keep you posted......post pictures soon, I promise.

Santa brought the kids lots of goodies. Tim and David have been enjoying guitar hero. I have tried it but it is rather difficult. My two boys think they are rock star material......

Two Week School Break

The kids are thrilled that school is out! They had a great little Advent program at school on Thursday night. Karina likes to pretend she is Mary. She says that Mary takes good care of baby Jesus. David will be performing during Christmas mass. He is in the choir.
We have plans to go skiing and snow shoeing this coming week. Also, my parents and brother will be here. We wish everyone a Merry Christmas! Tim and I are glad to be together this year. God Bless everyone!

Snow Day

Today the kids are home due to the snowy weather. David is excited about sledding down the hill. We are lucky to live by a great sledding area. He will have a great time today. The girls will probably just hang around and play dolls.

Tim is Home

Tim made it home on the 2ND of December. He called me that morning and told me that he would be in that evening. Talk about surprises......it is nice having him home. The kids are thrilled. David has made hockey plans, Karina wants piggy back rides and Moira wants to be turned upside down.......they each have special requests. I was invited to a movie and lunch tomorrow. I will probably miss the kids and wonder what Tim is letting them get away with. We have a busy weekend. David has two hockey games, birthday party,and a visit to Santa Claus.
