Weekend update

General news - It is Sunday night again and it seems like the weeks keep going faster and faster. Because our weeks go fast it seems like there is never enough time to get everything done...both the things we need to do and the things we want to do. This weekend however we got something done that we have been meaning to do for a while....we got the kitchen painted!! (I forgot to take a picture) A huge thank you to Carol and Gary for coming over on Saturday to help us with this project. Matt painted one coat of one wall last August! Needless to say it has been on our to do list for a LONG time! Carol and Gary are great and fast painters so the job was done in no time.

Basketball news - the Knights are 11-4 after two games over the weekend. The boys fought an awesome battle with Cannon Falls on Friday night and had another win on Saturday night. Friday night, Carol stayed with the kids so I actually got to see the whole game....it was a great game! Saturday night, the kids and I spent the entire game in the hallways of the school playing. It was a fun night for the kids and we were able to run off some energy. Matt is really enjoying the season with the great kids and coaching staff.

Cameron and Emmy news - The kids have been a little under the weather in the last week. Bad colds have made it hard to sleep and eat. Emmy is also working on some teeth so she is having a double whammy right now! Emmy's favorite thing right now is to read. She continually brings books to Matt and me throughout the day and loves to dump our big basket of books all over the floor to pick out her favorites.
Cameron's favorite thing continues to be drumming. He loves to play on the drum set we have for Rock Band. It is set up in our kitchen and he asks to have the radio on so that he can play to the songs he hears. After church today the guys let him come up on stage to play the drum set. This is the picture Matt captured. He is totally in his element! His quote was "I'm rockin' out!"

Even though our weeks are fast and full we continue to be blessed with God's grace and love. As my chosen Bible verse of the week says...I have come that you may have life and have it to the full! :):)
