Let's try this again...

I tried bloggin once before and I enjoyed it, but as life happens the little things tend to be put on the back burner and this was one of them. So, let's do a quick update. I am still teaching elementary school but now my sweet boy is in kindergarten, so we are in the smae building now. He has enjoyed kindergarten so much and has grown and matured beyond measure. I could not have been more pleased, (with the exception of those few holes he has gotten in his apple) with how his year has gone. Brayden is a very sweet boy, compassionate toward others, full of funny things to say, and keeps me on my toes all the time! We have bought a new house and love it! We have great neighbors and we are in a wonderful location. We have really enjoyed our new house and I love being a homeowner. Brayden played soccer again last fall and is in his second year of baseball this year. He is excited about it and pays attention to what is going on and wants to learn how the game works. This is a big difference from last year when he literally kicked dirt 90% of the game. Mom and Dad took Brayden and the rest of our family to Disney World last summer for Brayden's 5th birthday. He had to time of his life. It was so sweet to see how excited he was each day. We also went on a cruise to Alaska. I wasn't too sure about it at first, but it ended up being a great time and I would love to go back. Brayden still talks about both of these trips. I am very fortunate to have parents that help me and invite us to go on these great trips. Without them we probably wouldn't be able to do so much. Kasey "Bubbie" got married this past December. She is now expecting twins. Brayden has decided that he is going to call them Phineas and Ferb. We don't know the gender of the twins yet, but he gets a kick out of this. Bubbie on the other hand is adimate that her children will not be named Phineas and Ferb. Brayden is excited to have cousins and I am excited to hold sweet little babies! This is a quick update of what is going on, or what has been going on in our lives. Pictures to come later, and hopefully I will keep a better track of this blog!
