Long time no see?

Well I thought that it was about time to write an update so everyone knows that we are still alive! As Im sure everyone would say 2009 was a tough one. But we are all still here with a bed to sleep in so that is a blessing. We had so many blessings last year and we are so very grateful to those angles that were the messengers:) Our kids are doing great! Katelynn just got invited to the level 5 ballet class! That is the last level, she is sooo excited! She will definatley be advancing quickly on point now. She won the campain for student body president back in September and is trying hard to make school better for the students. She is also 1st chair in band for the clarinet and saxaphone section, and she is doing great in piano. She is realy excited to go to YW in February and she can't wait for Junior High. AHHH!!! She wants to try out for cheer, and has been practicing quite often for it. Emily is so great. She is still sweet, but can pack a punch to! She is doing really well in school with all A's and B's and is still doing tumbling. She just started in the childrens choir for the East Valley Mormon Choral Organiziation. She is really excited to perform at the Mesa Arts Center, especially because I'm in the Orchestra. So it will be a lot of fun! She is also still doing well on her piano lessons and practices without me making her, I love it when that happens! Brennick is doing really great in school and is LOVING all day kindergarden. He is doing really well with reading and patterns and simple algebra and is having a blast. He has been bit by the "like" bug and has a bit of a crush on a girl named Allie. She is in his school class as well as primary and he just can't help himself from smiling at her, it is so cute! He still loves planes and basically any motorized vehicle, and has develoved a great love of Legos. All in all they are happy, healthy, smart, funny and good kids, we really are blessed. Kim is working hard to get more business and keep things movin' in a positive direction. Things are hard for everyone right now, but I've learned that nothing stays the same for very long and we just have to do our best to work hard and when we make mistakes we work at fixing them. I hope everyone is doing great and is happy and healthy! And I will try to post more often:)
