Wow...that month went fast!

So, we have been super busy this last month. Ethan kept us busy with his basketball games. He did an awesome job and learned to look for the open person, guard an opponent, make baskets, and have fun with his teammates. He also celebrated his 6th birthday this month. We celebrated his birthday in Kansas City with dinner at the TRex restaurant. What a fun night!

Abigail has been busy with children's choir at church. She even got to sing in the new worship center which seats 2,500 people. She didn't seem phased by the large crowd and did an amazing job. She loves to sing and perform! She also will be taking her first Communion this Thursday at church. Abigail begins volleyball next month, she is already sporting new shorts and wants to pair them with a cami tank-top. :)

We spent a few days over Spring Break in Kansas City at the Great Wolf Lodge. It was a lot of fun! Lots of time in the pool and on the water slides, many hours playing a virtual game at the hotel, Science City, shopping at the Legends, and dinner at TRex.

Brian finished up basketball and I fear golf is in the near future. He is still working hard at the business. The basement is done and now is a virtual world for Brian as he tries to set up new devices, wires things into the wall, and oh my the TV. It seems to never-end...when I do make it down to see what is happening I notice little trinkets appearing from his college days and adorning the mantels and tables. I guess I did say it was his territory if and when we finished it.

I finished up my spring semester classes at Drake and I am going to take the summer off. I will start again next fall and with everything going as planned will graduate next spring with my Masters degree. I took a new job for next year and I am very excited about it. I will still be at the same school but teaching 1st Grade a grade I fell in love with a few years ago. I will be joining a great team of teachers and will know several of the kids as they transition from Kindergarten to First Grade. I have been busy cleaning out and packing at school, we are remodeling and being moved for a year to a vacant school in the district. I can't believe how much stuff I have accumulated in just a few years.

We want to wish everyone a Happy Easter!
