1 year

The hardest part about blogging is coming up with the title. If I could, all my titles would say "Truly Blessed". We have just crossed the 1 year mark since our move. I can honestly say that it has been a fantastic year. Definately not easy, but in the end, fantastic. We feel at home here and have made good friends. The kids are generally healthy and doing so well! I haven't blogged for 2 months because nothing is really happening, thank goodness! Things have been calm and stable.

We've been doing a lot of scout things lately. Noah participated in the Pinewood Derby (he made an awesome lego car) and also had fun and earned awards at his Blue and Gold Banquet. Matthew was the caller for the flag ceremony at an Eagle Court of Honor and did the best job I've ever seen by a boy scout. He took the responsiblility so seriously. Both Josh and Matthew will be earning ranks at an upcoming court of honor.

Noah and Matthew completed indoor winter soccer and Isaac is beginning spring soccer.

I got this flower from the chiropractor's office. They had toys for the kids to pick out and flowers for the moms for valentine's day. On our way out the door, Isaac says "Well, I guess I'm going to have to marry you!" He is all about giving me flowers lately and talking about his future wife and giving her flowers. He's so sweet.

We did Touch A Truck this last weekend. I can see the benefit of having your children very close together. I can't remember how many Touch A Trucks or similar events that we've done over the years. Too many!...the older kids might say. They didn't want to go, but I made them! Isaac shouldn't have to miss out, right?
