i have not done this for three years, since Jordyn was a baby. Now Ashlyn is here and I want to try again. i am not very good with a computer but i think i'll get the hang of it. i got in touch with an old friend the other day and felt inspired to try better to keep in touch and blogs seem a great way to do it though i am not sure where any of us really have the time. but what is more important besides family than sharing memories with friends and family.

I forgot I had written back in October, here I go again. Joslyn(10)  is NOT doing cheerleading, she is trying out softball.  Ashlyn decided she wanted to be a soccer "pro" so I signed her up a week ago, then she declared she wants to stay with gymnastics and not be a soccer "pro." Now she wants me to buy gymnastic equipment and "coach" her at home.  She is intense, that is for sure.  She has been practicing her cart-wheels in the living room, only crashing into the dog cage once, having a total melt down Friday night because she was so tired and couldn't get the cart-wheel just right.  By Sunday evening, she was flying through the air with legs straight up, usually making a feet first landing.  We are trying to find a dance studio for Jordyn.  She is not competitive, she is a bit of  a free spirit and dancing might be fun for her.  Lilly is going to do golf for the Middle School this spring today: we went to church, the kids are in new class...

hello out there in blog land. this is a short description of our family. We are five plus a dog, two horses and a fish named Morty, thats right, Morty, not Marty, Morty. Lilly is very particular about this. Jacob and I were married in Denver, Colorado, in 2002, or was is 2003, jacob would know for sure. We have three girls, Lillian (Lilly,), Joslyn (Josi) and the smallest though she will probably be the tallest when all is said and done, Jordyn (a.k.a. "the baby"). We live in Choctaw Oklahoma. Our German Shepherd's name is Brewster. The neighbor's dog also spends quit most of its time here and lilly calls it "lil' fella" although we figured out he is a she. The horses names are Woodrow and Maggie. Maggie was a stray. yes, a stray horse. It happens quite a lot here, actually. We love making cookies and reading stories and going to the park. That's it for now, i have to make lunch, or so the kids tell me. the pictures are of crystals on grass in our b...

Ashlyn has the flu.  They are saying it is an epidemic. Several schools in the OKC area have closed in the last couple weeks.  It is mild but lasts about 5 days.  She is a trooper, she wants to play so badly but she just doesn't feel well.  She still can't make up her mind about whether she wants to play soccer or gymnastics, so i told her today we are sticking with gymnastics for a while.  The softball coach said that Joslyn is probably out of luck as far as finding a team to play on in Choctaw since by this age the teams are all pretty well established.  So, we might try the surrounding area.  Lilly had a golf meeting at school that she and Jacob attended tonight.  they will practice at Choctaw Creek.
