Yep, still here.

It probably feels like we have pretty much given up on blogging but I am here to report that we are still alive and kicking. Blogging has kind of taken a backseat to household, work and family commitments but I am back now to remedy that. I can be found on facebook if anyone wants to keep in touch.

All is well in our neck of the woods, the kids are all involved in their respective sports and focusing on school. Addy made it to the spelling bee for 2nd grade and is the top reader out of 80 kids in the 2nd grade so we are very proud of her. She still terrorizes her kitty, Sam, daily who just loves her to death. Bryce has been getting back into the swing of things with indoor training for soccer and taking trampoline class. He really is a flipping maniac and can land a double front flip on the gym trampoline. (I will youtube it for you next time). Ty passed his drivers test with flying colors and is reveling in the sheer pleasure of the freedom that comes with driving. He is doing well in school and is currently looking for a job.

Short and sweet. Let's hope I update before summer.
Love you all,
Janelle and the fam.

I figured that it would either be really, really good OR, really, really bad...........it was good!! Congrats on getting your license.

So much for a snails pace.

So, I don't know about you, but life around here seems to be snowballing for us. Faster....faster....faster. It seems the minute I turn around, one of our children is reaching yet another milestone in their lives. I try to relish the moment but so many times, it doesn't seem like we celebrate often enough some of lifes important memories or take note of some of the special messages we should be learning from our children. I am going to try to slow down a bit this month to focus a little more. (yes, it will be hard for me to slow down but I know it needs to be done.)

Pretty cute for feet if I don't say so myself.
