Recent Happenings

Just wanted to tell what everyone has been up to recently:

Jeff: I had been working hard in Preparation and during Tax Free Weekend. Crazy how busy and what people will go through to save $20-$60 dollars of Sales Tax during these 4 days. Overtime is really going to be nice on the next paycheck! Taking care of the lawn (mostly) and playing outside with the kids when home.

Carie: Hardest job of all keeping up with the house and now 3 kids. She is going to be getting back to tutoring part-time again in a few weeks that she enjoys. She takes care of the most with the shopping and bills included.

Tanner: Has been busy during the summer, he just finished intermediate swimming lessons and is just starting Under 6 Soccer with Walton parks. He started Kindergarten this year and likes it so far. He rides the bus everyday back and forth. He likes to play with neighborhood friends every extra time he can.

Lindsey: Has also been busy, well making Carie and I busy with the things she can get into when not looked at. We are potty training her and it is going slow. She loves the Caliou show on PBS and likes to go for walks and go swimming. She is at the very independant time that wants to do everything all by herself. "Lindsey do it." Likes to accessorize already and dress up.

Maren: Smiling now when she gets the attention and is holding her head up alot on her own. Sometimes sleeping for 6 hours at night. A little different then Tanner and Lindsey because she likes Bath time and diaper changes. But even she doesn't like changing clothes or getting dressed - just like the others.

When I worked at Circuit City I was always amazed how crazy people get and what they are willing to do to get $20 in tax savings... If they took the time to research and find a good deal they would save much more just about any time of the year.

That is cute what you said about "Lindsey Do it". Karlie is like that all the time too. We are excited about seeing you guys at the beach.

Mom and I really enjoyed all of you!!, and your are right Jeff -- you guys can go down anytime you want --- let us know and we will meet you. When it got real cold here in Febuary, we went down and walked on the beach, it was 80F that day, I think it was warmer than usual but it is amazing how incredibly warmer it is there in the winter.
