I know, I know...it's been forever since I have updated my blog. Life happens and things don't always get done. We are all doing fine and staying healthy.
Let's see, since Christmas (if I can remember) a lot has gone on. Our Basketball team made the NCAA tournament and we traveled to San Jose, CA for the games. We beat Vanderbilt on a last second shot in the first round and went completely crazy about that. We were also a last second shot away from beating Butler in the second round, but couldn't get the shot off. It was a great game anyway, and Butler went on to play Duke in the championship game. So, all in all, not a bad showing.
While in California, we did take the kids up to San Francisco to see the sights and we had a good visit.
School and end of the year events at the University kept us busy for the rest of the school year.
In May, I had my 1 year check up with my Neurosurgeon. All was well and I was given a thumbs up so to speak. I won't have to repeat my MRI or see him again for a whole year! Praise to God on that!!
This summer the kids took swimming lessons and the kids and I tried our hand at tennis. Our women's tennis coach worked with us to teach us the basics of the game. She was wonderful and very patient and we all had a good time and got some exercise.
Allen's parents sold their house in Rolla, MO and moved up to Kansas City. We spent a few days up there to see the family and their new house. We were really hoping to be there for the birth of Keith & Mindy's 3rd baby, but Kelsey Faith was on her own time table and didn't come while we were there. We are anxious to see her in person.
In July, we traveled with Allen's parents and his Sister Judy and her family to Colorado. We spent a week in Rocky Mountain National Park enjoying hiking, horseback riding and just hanging out in the mountains. It gave us a much needed week of relief from the horrible heat wave we were having back home.
Nathan attended Murray State's basketball camp the end of July. He had a very busy week, but had a great time. We rounded out our summer with a trip to a water park then hit the books again.
Football season is now officially started and that begins our busy season....I may not get a chance to update until after Christmas! HA! I will try and do better than that!
Hopefully will get some pictures up soon too!
