The News

It sure has been a long time since I last wrote. There is a lot to catch up on.

Ty and Ashley started back to school. Ty is in 1st grade and Ashley is in 2nd. They both go the full day now, so it is just me and Sarah at home. The first couple days of school I would walk them to the bus and Sarah would get her backpack on too and cry because she wanted to go to school with them.



Sarah did start dance lessons this year, however. She is so cute in her leotard. She loves dance and gets so excited to go. Here are some pics from her first day.


Ashley is still doing dance and cheer this year, but she and Ty also started taking Tae Kwon Do. They are so cute in their uniforms. They are getting pretty good already. It is fun to watch them and it makes me want to get up and do it too! Sarah has had a couple chances to try it. She is so cute and takes it quite seriously for a 2 year old.


I have been quite busy too. This year I volunteered to be the PTA Treasurer at my kids' elementary school. It's fun. I really enjoy being involved at their school. I also started my cheer classes again, which I love. This year we are cheering for the Brighton Little League football. I went to Brighton High so it has been fun to cheer for my school again. The little girls are so cute and I absolutely love teaching them and getting to watch them learn new things and have fun.

But the biggest news of all is that I am pregnant again!! I am already 16 weeks along, so we haven't found out what we are having yet, but it won't be long until we get to find out. We are excited! Ty is hoping for a boy. When we told them we were going to have a baby, he said it better be a boy or he and dad are leaving, because they will be surrounded! I'm sure he'd change his mind if he saw a sweet little baby girl and he'd love her to pieces too. But it would also be nice if he got to have a brother. It turns out my due date is March 3rd, my birthday. What a wonderful birthday present to look forward to!

Brent has been doing good. He's been working very hard and has so much going on. I don't know how he does it, but I'm sure grateful to have him and for all the things he does for me and the kids.

Ashley will be turning 8 on Oct. 6th. She is getting baptized this year!!! I can't believe my little girl is growing up so fast. Her baptism will be on Oct. 25th at 5:00 p.m. for anyone who would like to come. She is getting very excited about being baptized. She's such a good little girl. I just love her. I really do have the best kids in the world. Can't wait for the next one to join us too!

Wonderful pictures, Kris. I love them. The kids looks so big. We will be there for Ashley's baptism. Seems like she was just born. Can't wait to find out if you have a boy or girl coming! I'll take either one.
