Things Never Slow Down Here

We made it through the long hockey season. The kids were great. Abbie and Evan started at the end of October and Andy started at the end of December. They all had a great time and are playing and skating well. All four of the kids took skating lessons for three sessions and this week-end Abbe, Evan , and Owen are performing in Charlie and the Candy Factory on Ice. They are so cute with their costumes on. I will add photos when we are done with the show.

Ken has been crazy busy at work but still loves his job. They really keep him going.

Church has been great! Ken and I are both teaching Sunday School and that has been very challenging for me. For some reason, Owen doesn't want to go to his own class and he stays with me and then I have three of my own kids in my class. It really tests me some days. I will remember for next year to teach a class that your child is not in.

Abbie will have her first dance recital in May and they are dancing to the song Shop Around. They us grocery carts and it is just adorable. I can't wait. They had their pictures on Wednesday and the little girls in their frilly costumes and make-up on. And we can't forget the curls that I had practiced and practiced. IT was adorable.

We have a couple of trips planned. We are heading to Fargo at the end of the month and Ken is going to present at a conference. Then when we get back I need to have surgery on my right hand for carpal tunnel. Ken is going to do daycare for me that week and Mom is coming up too.

We are going to IA in June to do the breast cancer walk. We did it a couple years ago so it will be fun to do it again. I don't think that Mom will be able to walk with the trouble she has been having with her knees. She needs replacements at some point. I hope I don't inherit that!!!LOL

We have another trip that will be to the Dells in AUgust for the kids birthdays. They are very excited about that. We have a trip to Macanac (sp) Island as well and I can't wait for that.

We are going to side the house and new windows and lots of paining projects to do inside as well. I hope to get Evan moved downstairs and then we can get the other three split up too.

I will have to keep this blog up through the summer so you know what is going on here in MN.

Take care and thanks for stopping by.
