Well, so much for trying to keep of more often on this blog. I love to write, just can't seem to get to it with the wonderful business of our lives, oh and the computer finally getting fixed (well, a replacement until it gets fixed in the next few weeks). After we began school and Jon went back to teaching at Ft Myers Christian School, we did settle into a routine. That is, until the boys began asking to go to football practice before basketball practice on Tuesdays. All their friends were going to play, which includes most of the basketball team, so we said they could go practice but don't plan on playing as we did not have the money for that, nor did we want the extra scheduling challenges. Well, next thing I know they are on the team and have games scheduled. So, instead of having a more relaxed Fall leading up to the busy winter and Spring, now we are going to games that last 2 hours!!! Plus the girls volleyball play during the hour before so we have to go cheer them on. I don't mind all of this, but it is hard to keep up some days. Yesterday we got poured on and soaked. But, with 2 hours of the game, we managed to dry off to just damp.
Wednesdays we have the boys' co-op followed by 3 piano lessons, home to dinner and then catch up on any school work that didn't get done, or correct work they did not understand. Today Jon worked with David and Charity on their math.
Katie is getting ready to move to TX to minister at the International ALERT Academy where Nathan is. She has felt that the Lord wanted her to give Him at least a year to serve. We will miss her but look forward to the growth that the Lord has in mind for her life. She leaves in one week!! Then we will all be leaving for TX for Nathan's wedding about 20 days later. I have been e-mailing his fiance' Hannah for some time now and am excited to be getting to know what a sweet, godly woman she is. Nathan used courtship to begin a relationship with her and then was shortly engaged. They will be having a double wedding with Hannah's sister Emily. Jon is performing the ceremony. I can't wait. Maybe next post I will write their courtship story. It is soooo of the Lord. What a blessing. I am excited that our other children will have such a great example for their lives.
This replacement computer does not have our hard drives so I do not have access to any photos except this one of Nathan and Hannah right after they got engaged.
