Blake Turned 6

May 09
New in Texas & pictures from Blake turning 6

Blake turned 6 years old on April 30th. We had a nice party outside with friends from our neighborhood. They all enjoyed the trampoline and the Pinyata.(sp?)

Chad took another load up to Iowa last week and he took Brooke to visit. Brooke enjoyed her first few days with Grandpa and Grandma. She then headed up to Nana and Grandpa's. They have enjoyed the time they were able to spend there. The kids and I were thinking about heading up for mother's Day but my car decided to blow hot air out instead of cold air again. So, I thought, no thank you! I will stay here and go short distances.

Blake has 10 days of school left. They will have the graduation ceremony on the 22. Nana will be here then so we hope she will be able to come and see him graduate. Blake was awarded the most improved hard working award!! We are so proud of him. He also placed 2nd coming in with a 94% in reading which is really well cvonsidering where we started. He really has stepped up to the plate..

The kids and I enjoy going to Jazzercise everyday. The kids have playtime away from me and I get to be away from them and workout. :-) I really have enjoyed all of the girls I have met at Jazzercise and I love the fitness part the most. I can stay sane because I feel better about myself.. I am considering a certification in Jazzercise. I would love to open one up. Of course that is farther down the road but it is a thought of mine. For those of you who have not gone or know nothing about Jazzercise copy and paste this link www.jazzercise.com.

We have had no views this week on our house. Selling a house is so hard. IT seems so easy when you have never done it before. I know now what people go through. There are four other houses for sale on this block and about a half a mile down there are new homes for sale so we have plenty of competition. Keep us in your prayers. Dawn and Jamison will be back home in Iowa for a wedding this weekend and they will stay for lunch on mothers day and then head back toward home. They are leaving Addie with relatives. What fun a weekend with no kid. ENJOY :-)
