What's new...

Well, you would think from my last post that there would be a lot new. But, really, not so much. The girls continue to be really busy at school. First semester is finishing up for Emma, and she has taken the test to get into a private Catholic School here in Denver. We are praying hard that she gets in... Want to join us? Emma is doing well in school, especially in those subjects that she loves!! (english, spanish, science, and journalism.)

Abby is doing so much better in school. I think it is numerous factors helping us here. She is such a hard worker. That is the one thing her teacher says over and over. She is in tutoring at Huntington Learning Center 3 nights a week. She is really getting caught up on much of those concepts she missed and teaching her concepts that will help her be a better student. Everyone is just shocked at really how well she is progressing.

Chris and I continue to just work away.... We make a great team and make it all work!

We are VERY excited for Christmas and for my parents coming!!! Have you ever had that NEED to see your parents? I had that need, and like all parents do, they are going to meet that need for me!!! It will be the best Christmas present I will get, that is for sure!!!!!

The Christmas Tree is all set up! We even have some wrapped presents under it this year!

We hope that your holiday season is going well! We are thinking of you!!!

It is Easter...  I have felt like yuck all weekend!  The girls still managed to color Easter eggs, the Easter Bunny still came. leaving a spattering of Easter treats, our friends took the girls to church this morning...  I don't like to be sick!  I feel a little better now.  I managed to fix "Easter Dinner". A ham, potatoes, deviled eggs, (I think that is sacrilegious when you make them out of Easter eggs?) broccoli and rolls.  The girls enjoyed the meal, as did Chris.  

It is a rainy cold Easter...  Glad we were not planning on an outdoor Easter Egg hunt.  This is so unlike the Easter's when I was a kid.  When I was a kid, we lived in Austin, Texas.  I remember we spent our Easter's with outdoor Easter Egg hunts, boating and picnic dinners for Easter.  I look outside today and think "I would rather be in Texas, boating on Lake Travis" today.  

I hope you have a VERY HAPPY EASTER!
