...you never blog? I thing I will make a goal to blog on a more regular basis. I can keep friends and family in the loop while keeping a record.
My girls are growing up so fast! Emma just finished second grade and had a very productive year. I am having a tough time finding books that match skill with maturity level. Thank goodness Grandpa B just sent her a box full of books! She is tearing through The tail of Desperaux and the Little House books.
She is still so creative. Yesterday she made some amazing jewelry for herself and her American girl doll. She also found some fabric scraps and made a little cat pillow. It is shaped like a cat! She is counting the days until swim lessons and enjoying her time on the computer. She has recently decided to become a computer programmer when she grows up. Though we have had a few, ahem, slow practice weeks with the violin, she is really sounding great!
Rachael is not our baby anymore! We keep trying to remind ourselves that she is 4 and a half! She is in the joke telling phase and we are getting a lot of "why did the chicken cross the road?" jokes. She is as creative as her sister. The other day I found her making a frog catapult out of bristle blocks. She spent a happy afternoon painting bats and leaving them all over my friends refrigerator! She is really into counting and asks me to count up to different numbers at various times of the day. She loves counting everything she finds. We are still doing a great job learning to read and she loves surrounding herself with books.
Bob and I are as busy as ever. Bob just got a prestigious award at work. We are very proud of him! He gets to rotate back to the lab for a few months and then to traffic ( I am not sure what that entails, but it should be interesting). He is still compiling tons of genealogy. I am busy canning, sewing, crafting, weeding, cleaning, reading, etc.
Bob and I got to take an overnight trip to the Medford temple a few weeks ago which was refreshing and lovely.
Everything is great here!
