We are alive!

I just realized that I used to have a blog! Okay, I just had time to keep my blog up to date. Much has changed in the last 10 months, yes, that is what it said, it has been 10 months since I have updated. Not sure if anyone even checks this anymore. Anyway, if anyone is looking for an update here we go. Last May, My husband lost his job of 16 years, they let many people go that day and a few days following. The good news is after a crazy summer, a few poorly paying jobs, he got a job that he likes last August. In the meantime, when he was looking, I started looking too. I interviewed for a few teaching jobs, and got them both. It was hard decision to make, but I ended up taking one that is about 6 minutes from my house. I love being back in the teaching world (I hadn't been a full time teacher since B was born 8 years ago). I miss the time at home with kids and just time to relax. It seems we are always really busy. The kids (the twins) have adjusted pretty well. My mom is watching them a few days a week and they are going to day care the other days. L and B just turned 4, they are doing really well. Brenna is a girly girl who loves to play dress up, but she can really throw a ball too. She will be doing t-ball again this summer. Liam is my little walking encylopedia, the things he comes up with are hilarious. He says he wants to do t-ball again this year, but last year he didn't like taking the field. B is now 8 and in 2nd grade. He is doing well, he loves to play basketball and planning on doing baseball again this summer. He played chess for the first time this year and did really well. He was 1st place in the K-2 grade division at his school and place 3rd place in his age group in the district. The bad thing is that I have no idea how to play chess and he is now beating his dad and grandpa. And, I almost forgot, he will receive his First Communion next week. Okay...there's the update for now, maybe I will do it again before another 10 months go by.
