I have officially gone back to school. My Algebra class started about a week ago and I have already taken 2 chapter tests both with A's. I am very excited and am enjoying getting to use my brain again after 15 years of just helping with homework and other daily tasks. I will take nutrition next semester and am on my way to becoming a nurse.

Andrew was told this week that he will be recieving a wish from the make-a-wish foundation. He is very excited but having a hard time coming up with exactly what he would like to do.

Everyone is doing well and business is starting to pick up since the summer is warming up. Hopefully it will continue!

News of the day

Today we found out Alysha will be in Honors English/History in High School! Yeah. I am so proud of her. She really sets an academic example for the other kids and has set a good example for a love of reading. So far all my reading children really enjoy a good book. (We have to yell at them to go to sleep at night instead of read.) Thursday we help her select her classes for high school at registration. And next year will be the first of many years with early morning seminary. (I am not a moring person!!)
Andrew wants to get his Eagle Scout award by the time he is 14 and really is willing to work for it. Michael is loving cub scouts with Dad as his Bear den leader. So many exciting things to work on. What great kids we have.

My first blog

What can I say? I got this idea from a friend and decided what a great way to let friends know what is going on.
