Spring is in the air

It is March and the blossoms are coming out on the trees. The weather here in Santa Cruz has been wonderful, sunny at times and rainy at times. Our car has transmissions problems and is getting replaced big expense.
The kids are doing great, Ashley is playing softball and loving that her dad is coaching her. She is playing catcher and is doing really well at it. William is playing T-ball and is loving that he gets to do that, he also is loving his Martial Arts class. He is a Orange Belt right now. Samuel is driving his sister crazy he won't keep his hands off her and is always in his face, he is so smart he loves to play and talk about what is going on in his world. He really hates to be left out of things the older kids are doing. Allison is 5 months old and is doing great, she has adjusted to me going to school and loves it when I get home. She is working on sitting up and rolling over. I think she is even cutting her first tooth. She is getting bigger and stronger all the time.
I am enjoying school and learning a whole new language with Medical Terminology. Bill is doing well coaching Ashley's softball team and is looking forward to hopefully new things in the near future.

Back to school-updates on family

Yes, big news I've started back to school this semester. I'm currently taking 2 classes both Medical Terminology. I've decided to get my Medical Assisting Certificate so that while I'm waiting to get into a nursing program I'll be able to make some money also. Also, if Bill decides to go back to school we won't be that starving of students.

Our family is doing well Ashley is wrapping up her Indoor Soccer Season which I have had the great pleasure of being her coach, she is starting Softball and lucky her Bill is coaching her in that.

William is starting T-ball and I don't know if he will like it, he said tonight, I hope it rains tomorrow cause T-ball is sort of boring. It may be a long season for him. He is loving school and doing really well.

Samuel, what can I say but he loves his little sister so much that he can't keep his hand off of her. He is a full of energy little boy and is learning that he is really funny.

Allison is a wonderful addition to our family, she is growing and learning, she has figured out that if she cries when Samuel is around he gets in trouble. Smart little girl. She is starting to roll over and wants so badly to sit up. But her head is too big and her bum is too round still.

Very lucky to have the family that I have

Ashley indoor soccer

Ashley started indoor soccer last weekend and it was so much fun to watch her play and how she just dominated the back line. I heard from lots of the parents Where did Ashley come from. It was what I was thinking also, she just came out of her shell, and played so hard and just shut the other teams best player down. I was so proud of her. I must admit that when I was watching her play I couldn't help but see alittle bit of me in her soccer playing. Heaven help the other team if she turns out like me.

Too Long for an update

It is Christmas time and we are still here in Santa Cruz, we have had alot of things happen to our little family, we welcomed a new little girl to our family. Allison Brooke was born in October and is such a delight to have in our family. We are still living with my parents and looking forward to having a place of our own. Christmas this year is going to be small and that is just what we like.

Just an update

We are all still alive and breathing up here in Santa Cruz. We just finished celebrating Ashley's Birthday and Bill and I decided that we were going to take her to the city to see Wicked. She loved it, it was a day full of fun things and good times. She loved every bit of it. At the end of the day we decided to surprise her and take her to the Oakland temple to see where we got married. I think that was the best part of her day. She kept saying that it was a perfect day being the only kid with mom and dad. But little did she know that she wasn't.

It still was a great day. Long day but great day.

10 years and counting

Bill and I have been married for 10 years today. I can't believe that it has been so long. I remember the first time that I saw him and how much I wanted to get to know him. We had our rocky start and some bumps in the road. But I love him more and more everyday.
