Wishing all my friends and family a Happy New Year. I hope you all had a great holiday season and are well. We enjoyed our quiet holiday at home, missing our Florida family. I think this was the first time I enjoyed the kids being home and was not looking forward to school starting. Everyone got a long and there was very little fighting, which makes everything more enjoyable. Don took a week off and we had a great time playing Rock Band and Guitar Hero games that Nick received for Christmas. Michael enjoyed his xbox games and his new online account, so we didn't see much of him the week after Christmas.
School has started back and both the boys received honor roll. Emily did really well on her report card too. We are getting ready for Michael's solo ensemble band contest at the end of the month. Nick as started this semester drama class at school, and his getting ready for a school play in march. Emily has three baton competitions in the next two months. We have decided not to take Emily to baton regionals in Long Beach Cali, this year. She has been fighting a lung infection since Thanksgiving and we want to keep her close to home. Regionals is 4 days of very long hours and hard work and it might be to much for her this year. There is always next year.
The biggest news we have is that Don will be once again going to Oregon. Not sure of when, but like last time it will be 4-6 months of him being gone. Rumors have him leaving sometime in April, but one thing I have learned over the last 15 years with Intel, things can change in an instant. He could come home tonight and tell me he is leaving in the morning ( hopefully not). This can be quite frustrating but I am thankful that he has a great job and they have been so good to us over the years.
