Where does time go?

Here it is, halfway through January and I still can't write the correct year on anything. I look back at the last post and realize it has been a month since I have updated the blog. It seems lately, time has been flying by. So much has happened in the past month, I will hit the highlights.

* Keith's mom came to visit for Christmas. We had a fun time with lots of sleep in days. Grandma took Lauren, Kiersten, and me to the Nutcracker ballet. Lauren really enjoyed it but Kiersten not so much. Afterwords, she thought it was good but it was hard for her to sit still and watch.

*Keith had surgery on his knee. The doctor removed some torn cartilage from his knee. Thankfully he recovered quickly with no complications.

*Connor took 1st place Prone in 2 shooting matches. One of his 1st Place finishes was for the whole state of Washington. Lately he has been building rockets and finding things to solder together.

*Bryce is also doing well in shooting. He has participated in 1 match so far and placed 5th, just a couple of points out of medalling. Bryce also got a metal detector for Christmas and hopes to find something valuable in his treasure hunting.

*Hunter added 2 more hamsters to our menagerie. They are pretty cute dwarf hamsters named Buddy and Cutie. He is really showing responsibility taking care of his pets.

*Lauren started another session of ballroom dance, this time working on the Cha Cha and the Waltz. Lauren also started reading the Twilight series. Will she like Edward or Jacob?

*Kiersten really enjoyed Christmas break, especially the sleep in days! She is back in Preschool and is doing really well learning her letters. She learns scriptures in her Preschool and can quote John 3:16 for you!

*As for me, I am staying busy. I just got back into couponing and had a very successful day of grocery shopping last weekend. Keith and the kids were way impressed!

There you are...all updated. For now.
