Wii and stuff

Have you had the chance to play a Wii? If you haven't and you know someone that has one...schedule a time to go over and play Wii Bowling. That's right...invite yourself over and bowl. We have had several opportunities to play with some friends and my cousin, Scott, and it is a total HOOT! In fact, Mike and I are part of a Wii Bowling Tournament with 4 other couples and our teams are men vs. women. The women took the first round and we are going to schedule round two soon. The winner of two out of 3 rounds is the Champion Wii team and the loser has to cook, serve, and clean up dinner for the winning team. I'll take pictures at our next round and post them on the blog.

Wilson update: Sam is still on the church worship band but is no longer in the ohter garage band. Pity, but they called him up one day and just kicked him out! They asked a girl who is their friend to lead sing. She is more folky so I am not sure what they plan to do. He was crushed for about a day and has responded beautifully. Anyway, he has been playing more with the church band and starts play practice tonight. We had Laura Beth (his girl) and Ricky (Grace's guy) over for dinner Sunday night and played games for prizes. Ricky left as the big winner with a box of Little Debbie cakes and a Flashlight key chain.

Grace: Is getting braces Thursday. She got her spacers last Thursday and this Thursday she gets the whole enchilada. But the ortho was very optimistic and thinks it will only take about 18 months max to get her all straightened out. She is on the track team but is suffering from extremely painful shin splints. She ran one race on Saturday and had to quit due to inflammation and pain. She is taking a week off to see if we can get this under control. Grace also starts play rehearsal tonight.

Jessie: Starts play practice as well. She brought home her progress report and is thrilled to have almost all 100% in all her subjects. She is a social butterfly and goes over to her friend, Hope's house, every weekend and sometimes during the week. Hope has a Barbie room that is solely dedicated to Barbie's but don't tell anyone Jessie still plays with Barbies. She doesn't want anyone to know and think she is a baby. She is quite fascinated by her older brother and sister and their "friends". She is definitely the pesky little sister when they are over...can you imagine that?

Mike: has a wedding this Saturday. He has been busy at work with all the new radio station prospects. He is the President of the Football Booster Club next year and will soon be getting all the info and starting to take over. He and I are looking at a house thie Thursday night. No, we haven't officially decided to put our house up for sale, but we have seen something listed that has potential and if we love it, we may "Sell by Owner" this time so that we can control our showings, etc.

Me: I am busy...nothing new there. With Coordinating Aerobics and now personal training at the gym, I am there 5 days a week and sometimes twice a day. I really am enjoying working one on one with people and getting to know them on a more personal level. I love to see them progess and reach new fitness goals. I am still doing the Body Shop but am being careful to only do no more than two parties a month. Along with running kids here and there and all the other household chores to do...it seems I get very few moments to just sit. But they do occur here and there and I try to take advantage of them when they hit. In fact, I was just able to take a hot bath and plan to sit down now and have my quiet time with God.

Love you all tons and thanks for reading!
