Wow- It has bee 3 months

I can't believe it has been three months since I have written on here.  The bright idea was that I was going to be able to take a few minutes a week to chronicle our lives...  but that hasn't happened...

In short - our lives have been filled with Trevor's school baseball, Alyssa's school softball, Mac and Brennah's soccer games, as well as the day to day business that is our lives.  Those activities are all done, but new ones are starting up...

Last weekend we celebrated Grandma Vivian's 95th birthday with many of the family members and lots of friends.  We had barbeque for supper and the Goons played.  It was a bit cool for an outdoor party.  I'm not sure if Vivian knew what all the fuss was about, but she seemed to enjoy herself.

We have had the thrill of having tornados in the area this week.  One went 1/2 mile south of Kevin & Julies and tore up several trees in their pasture, but didn't mess up anything else.  that same tornado hit a house that belongs to their friends - totalling their house.  The one that came closest to us was seen by the air traffic controllers at the airport - fair too close for comfort.

Mac severelly sprained his wrist Tuesday night - we though it may be broken, but a severe strain instead.  He was doing handstands in the living room and tried to change directions when he thought he was going to hit something.  The doctor gave him a brace to wear for a few weeks until it heals.

Alyssa and her friend Kayla have rented a house to live in for the next year.  It is close to campus so that will be good.  I have seen the outside and it looks fine - looking forward to seeing the whole house.  It will be good for her to move out and be on her own (living wise anyway...)  We are excited to get our basement back....  YEA!!!

I am tired from all the busyness and need some down time...  work has been crazy busy also so that is adding to my overload...  way too many obligations and not enough "free" time - not sure how I'm going to change this...
