Just an update!

It has been a while since I have updated my few friends, but here goes:

School stinks! I don't have to say anything else about that, but this semester has kicked my hiney! I can't wait for December.

Alex had his first soccer game on Saturday, and he did GREAT! If you don't know this about Alex, he is artistic, not athletic! He enjoys music, and when we go the high school football games, he gets excited at half time because he gets to watch the band! (And he gets a drink right after half time). A side note, he announced to Shawn a couple of weeks ago during the half time show that he had decided what he wanted to be when he grew up. When Shawn asked what, he said, "A Xylophone player." He is only 4 by the way.....

Anyway, the soccer game, he was timid at first, but really got into it after a while. He could turn the ball around and go in the opposite direction, and he scored a goal!! We were so proud of him! His book fair is this week and I have to find time to take him and get him and Ashlyn a book. I cannot make it to open house because I have class (and I have already told you how I feel about that right now).

I have been getting into our church wide Bible study lately and will have to update you on that another day! Have to go to work now, see ya!

Can I just tell you how sad it makes me that your little boy is already old enough to play soccer?? I remember when he was born! I'm sure it makes mama pretty sad, too! :)

YAY Alex!! I can't believe he's old enough to play soccer - and say words like xylaphone!

Okay, so I am really behind, School is whipping me this semester! I am not so much sad, but I probably will be when I get more time to think about the fact that he is in school and playing soccer. He is doing so well with soccer, and get all his "gear" on by himself! I love it! Soccer Mom here we come!
