Catching Up

OK...so I have been super busy the last few weeks so I am going to try and catch up. This will be a random entry so I can catch up as quick as possible.

Rebecca has been swimming on a swim team this year and has really become a great swimmer. She peaked at just the right moment to qualify for the state swim meet in the 100 and 50 style races and the 50 back stroke. What is so awesome about Rebecca is that she has my competitive spirit (there is nothing fun about losing!) and Bob's nerves (super nervous about big things.) So Rebecca can't eat the mornings of her meets and we really have to get her to relax before she swims. As she became a better swimmer she started to swim her first race, get out of the pool, throw up and then swim her next race. Poor girl! We are so proud of her and hope that she will eventually keep the competitive spirit but out grow the nervous vomiting!



So our last post had our early Spring weather and now we are onto late Winter weather. Above, Rachel is being a sweetheart and helping me shovel the driveway and below old dog Rusty is enjoying his frolic in the snow which hopefully won't be his last!



Just a cute picture of the oldest and youngest. Neave is getting so big. We can't believe she is almost two. So is really starting to talk and loves to try and sing in church. She almost had the Priest cracking up a few weeks ago. With the talking comes her ability to express her likes and really express her dislikes. She is a gem and we all adore her.

Lastly, we are on the move again this June. We are headed to Washington, DC. We are sadden to be leaving family and the rural lifestyle we are accustomed to as we head to a much bigger city. But keeping a positive frame of mind...we will be close to Bob's sister Jeni and her family as well as my good friend Maria!
Stay tuned for an entry about our awesome trip to Durango, CO!
