You'd think with the amount of time that has past, that I just didn't have anything to write about or that nothing has been going on. Neither of which are true. Since I last "blogged", Sammy finished up his first season of football, is in the middle of Basketball season and just had try-outs for Pony Baseball. Not to mention a whole semester of school. Nick finished up yet another time demanding season of Marching Band (with 3 Band director changes and numerouse practice schedule changes) with the highlight of their season taking Sweepstakes for Drumline in thier last competition, and he is now gearing up for his competition season in Drum line. Tara has another semester of College under her belt and is finishing her paperwork to transfer to Cal State Channel Islands next semester. She made the Dean's list again......working at Play It Again Sports, volunteering at Awana (with her "girls") and savoring the Red Sox as World Champions. Sean is getting aclimated to High School and interested in Cartooning. He is scheduled to visit Disney's Animation Center in the Spring. (Deep breath). God remains so faithfull. (No surprise there). Ren is busy, busy, busy.....but still loving and attentive to our family. He was able to coach Sammy in football, they both really loved it, and basketball....and baseball. He knows it will be coming to an end after next year as Sammy enters High School so he's grabbing his moments while he can. He travels quite a bit with his job and I don't know how he juggles it all but he does, and he does it well. He's teaching an adult Sunday School class at Church and he enjoys it all so much. And me????? Well, I've been busy as well. Head Cheerleader is hard work! You know what I'm talking about. And I don't even have a cute little uniform! (Ahhhh shouts of relief go out!). I'm still on the board for baseball and that has been fun....mostly :-)It's a great way to get involved in the Community and I have met a lot of good people. I'm still involved in a Women's Bible Study and growing deeper roots as I study God's word. We said Good bye to our former teaching Pastor at CBC. He stepped down in August to persue a new work (after 5 years with us) and thus began a Pastor Search. Once again, God was faithful. (I know, no surprise again). God brought us a wonderful man and family, who loves the Lord and preaches His Word with confidence and enthusiasm. Some changes for me work-wise, after being on my own for 7 years, there's someone here everyday. I think that we're both getting used to each other and building a mutual respect for one another.
I'll try and get in here more, if only for my own sake.
Blessings to you!
