Pete and soccer

Hello all - just wanted to share a few pics of Pete and the Lab School Soccer Team. They went undefeated and won the championship in Baton Rouge. He is now playing with the traveling parish team. I just had to brag a bit. Enjoy the pics!

Madi is doing great. She is almost as tall as me and getting prettier every day. She is still playing piano and singing in the mirror.

What's goin on

I haven't posted in a while due to just being a little busy. Right now, the kids both have science and social studies fair projects to work on so I've been assisting them. Madi and her bestest friend Lyndsey are working on the Wii Mii age. It's pretty neat. Pete is exploring the Bill of Rights. Kinda timely since we have a new president.

We also have some wonderful things going on with our church that I'm excited about. We're starting up our new series of small groups. Madi is able to participate in the youth group now. I'm going to get re-involved in the International Student Ministry program. It's exciting to see God moving in so many ways.

I'm including a picture of baby Lucy. She's grown so much and is such a good addition to the family. And here is a picture of Madi and Lyndsey while they were "working" on their school project.

Will update again soon!

Snow Day!

December 11, 2008 - it snowed in Hammond! I added lots of photos on my facebook so if you need further proof, go check it out. We totally did not know what to do with ourselves. It was absolutely beautiful though. We were one of the lucky ones who kept our power, but lost phones and cell service.

Birthday cards from the two kids. Had to show you the difference between my boy and girl! And yes, Pete's picture is on a torn out sheet of notebook paper...

Pete's day

So yesterday was my 37th birthday, Pete turns 11 today and Madi will be 12 next week! He got a new bike, a new playstation game, and 2 movies. He is into Star Wars right now so we got him the new cartoon Star Wars movie. He brought cupcakes to school to share. I fixed him his favorite breakfast - french toast. So I hope he is having a great day at school, because he certainly had a great morning at home.

Did anyone see the planets by the moon last night - I think it was Jupiter and Venus. You can see them right after sunset. Make sure you take the kids outside to see them this evening if you can.
