Busy People

It has been quite some time since I last posted. Busy doesn't even begin to describe our life.

Right now Chris is still going to school. School, ugh. I can hardly stand the word these days. He is always so busy with school work that it makes me sick to think about it. I know he must be so sick of writing papers that he will never want to write another one.

The kids are wearing me down more than anyone could ever know. Evan mostly. I love them so much but I am just so drained that I feel like I cannot give them the attention they need.

Alana starts school in the fall.....homeschool. I have all the curriculum, we are registered, just waiting to meet with the school we will be going through and get started.

Well, that is pretty much it for now.

Anybody?

Well, Chris is back to school. This class is Systematic Theology. Boring! It seems to be a pretty tough class for him. Lots of very boring work.

Owen is now 3 1/2 months old. He is such a wonderful baby. He hardly ever cries and has slept through the night since we brought him home. Evan is still as energetic as humanly possible and will be 2 at the end of March. Alana turns 5 in just 10 days and will begin school in the fall. How time flies!

Chris's cousin Johnathan will be back from Afganistan in just a couple of more months. He has been gone since May 09. We are looking forward to his safe return.

Just so I know, does anybody read this blog?

Promotion

Well, Chris got his promotion. Nobody can tease him with the "butterbar" rank anymore. He is now a 1st Lieutenant. I am so proud of him. He is so thankful too! I know this won't be the last of the promotions.

I am still enjoying the fact that he has a break from school, but it will be starting back in a couple of weeks and things will be back to normal. I have enjoyed seeing his face a little bit more instead of the back of his head as he does school work or leaves for work or drills.

As the new year begins, I am very thankful for my family and friends. I love you all.
