First Post!



Well, here goes. All the cool kids seem to be blogging these days, so I've decided to give it a shot. I'm hoping it will serve as something of a public journal for myself, while also allowing friends and family to keep up with our daily lives here in the Lone Star State.

Currently, not much to report, Zachery is nursing a bad cut on his finger, but is healing nicely. He was trying to fix the kickstand on Riley's scooter for him and the spring slipped and sliced him pretty good, no stitches, but he's wearing a splint and will need to take a break from his guitar lessons, at least for this week. Poor Zach has had a rough winter, he hit his mouth on the playground at school back in December and lost part of his front tooth! Here is a recent photo of him at his guitar lesson, before the injury!







Speaking of front teeth, Riley has none! He lost them both in one night a few weeks ago! Sadly, the tooth fairy dropped the ball and didn't come the first night, but then Daddy remembered that there was a "two teeth" "two night" rule...sure enough, she left $2.00 the second night!!

Both boys are doing well in school, they just got their report cards and received "Ace Awards" for their grades! They have decided to stop taking gymnastics and concentrate on their piano (Riley) and guitar (Zach) lessons. Zachery has also joined the choir at school, they practice two mornings a week, and Riley is asking to take drum lessons...yikes. Here's a shot of him playing drums on the Wii.



Eric and I are both doing well, Eric is busy with work, for which we are grateful since so many are facing layoffs right now. I am V.P. of the school PTO, and in the midst of planning our Spring Festival which raises money for the school. Even with all this and running the kids to and fro, we still manage to get out and have fun as a couple, this past weekend we celebrated a friend's 40th birthday, we had a great time! Here are some pictures from that night!
