I am so sorry that so much time has passed since my last entry. Life has been so crazy! It's travel season for Hubby. He's been gone just about all of April. He was home for about 3.5 days a few weeks ago, and that was pretty much it for April. It's going to be like this for a while. Funny thing is that this means that work is going good. He didn't travel this much last year, and as we all know the last 1.5 years has been really tough on the business, which in turn is tough on our bank account. It's been a long road to get back to this point, and now I remember how much travel season really does suck.
On the other hand I have gotten really good just in the last month of dealing with things that typically I would make Hubby deal with. I set up new lawn service, got the sprinkler system fixed (had to have a valve replaced and line repaired, I hired the new lawn service to do this too). Dealt with a leaking regulator to our water heater. Figured out how to reprogram our sprinkler system box (the sprinklers just would not come on, Hubby couldn't figure out why, our neighbor couldn't figure out why, but I finally did it!) Plus many other things that have come up that I have figured out how to handle. Usually I find myself dealing with sick kids. This time it was house items plus being on a weight lifting restriction. I am amazing myself with the things that I am handling, learning, and dealing with!
I have been spending my time working part time at the office, doing MOPS and Ministry Team, driving Courtney to and from school, working out, and trying to take care of the girls, 2 dogs, 2 birds and one hedgehog. It may not sound like much, but it really keeps me busy.
Last weekend Courtney had her first performance ever. She was Tigger in a little Winnie the Pooh play at her musical theater school. It was very cute. We are waiting for the performance that was filmed to come in the mail. Plus the photos. Once we get it, I will try to post it on YouTube for everyone to be able to watch. It was very cute and I am sure there are many more performances to come. In fact I already have her signed up for a summer camp there, and they are going to be doing 101 Dalmations.
I also have her signed up for VBS and another camp at church, plus an art class with Bemis Art School here in town. I also am going to get the girls back in swimming lessons. Kasey is finally of the age that I don't have to be in the pool with her! I need to get Courtney tested to see what level of lesson to put her in and then I can get them signed up! I am hoping to keep the girls busy this summer.
I am waiting to hear if Kasey will get into the preschool program at the same place Courtney went, which is at the elementary school just down the street. The school that Courtney is attending currently does not have a preschool or a feeder preschool, so we have to find somewhere we are happy with. We know we like the teachers there, so we are hoping we get in! We should know in about a month. If she doesn't get in there, well then, I am not quite sure where we are going to send her to preschool...
Gosh, that's about all the highlights I can think of currently. I really need to get off the computer and work on cleaning. Somehow the house has turned into quite a disaster area!!!
