Last Week...

Last week the weather was so nice, it is hard to imagine there is still a lot of the school year left. We have not even had spring break around here and it already feels like summer.
Last week Bruiser got a haircut or he was scalped we can't decide what to call it.
Galaxy Gallery was held and we enjoyed looking at all of Ben and Gabe's artwork.
Gabe won a contest last week called Sketch The Stars. His drawing appeared on the morning news and will be in the newspaper. Next month he gets to go to WSBT TV and have a special lunch and see the midday news taped. All of this and he never mentioned it to us. He is so funny.
Ben has four weeks until he has his first belt testing for taekwondo so he has been working hard on his "moves" I am so happy that Ben is excited about this. He says thank you to me every single time I drive him there. He has met some new friends in class and re- connected with some friends he has not seen in awhile. So far it has been a great decision to make the commitment.
Gabe had a basketball game today. One more game left for the season. Today as I sat there, I realized that they were playing like a team- passing, dribbling, shooting (at the correct basket) Gabe has even stopped bouncing so much (he would sort of do this bouncy jumpy thing maybe nerves, maybe excitement?!) I know I have said it before but Upward is a great program- focusing more on teamwork and acting like Christ than competitiveness and scores. We have been very happy with Gabe's first experience with basketball.
Next week the weather is suppose to remain nice. I have so many meetings, appointments and projects, I am not sure if I can juggle it. Maybe I will just sit in a lawn chair, forget it all and pretend summer is already here
