Days run into each other, and I find myself trying to catch up on the things that take place so quickly. First, Ted completed his life goal of becoming a locomotive engineer on Monday, and is just waiting on the little official "card". This will be a great blessing for us in more ways than one. It's hard to believe that one year ago, we shipped him off to Wilmington, DE, where he stayed for 2 months going through school. His goal was to complete the training before his "year" was up, and I'm very proud of him.

Savannah has been so funny this week. Today was the capstone of all her "funny" sayings and doings. She and I were on the way to her school/daycare, when this horrid skunk smell penetrated the car. The next thing I hear is "MOMMY! You GOTTA cover your nose like this!" ... and when I glanced over my shoulder, she looked like a bandit pulling the collar of her t-shirt up over her nose, and started over her eyes! lol ... She then proceeded to say, "Now that's just GROSS!" She is just so funny!

Ashley has made it into the PACE program for 3rd grade, and we are so proud of her. Noni reports that she is the book-worm when she gets to her house, and that is great!

I'll think of more, but right now my brain is fried from a VERY eventful day at work ... :o)

Beginnings

September 12, 2008

Can't believe it's taken me this long to actually start a blog for our family! You know the old saying though ... he who works in IT field all day stays away from IT stuff at home! Ok.. so it's my motto, and I'm sticking to it! :-)

I think we shall take this on as a grand adventure ... I am such an avid journal keeper, and truly believe in the old hand-written method (just call me sentimental), so this will be a new step in a much more dymanic direction. Perhaps keeping our family activities posted here will assist in eliminating all those redundant typing episodes to family and friends. Can't hurt, right?

Be on the lookout, I just might surprise you with more than you humanly need to know! lol
