Holly is immersed in practicing for the Taylor Junior High stage performance of Music Man scheduled for production in the last week of February. Besides shuttling her to and from practices, Claudia has been painting sets and sewing one of Holly's costumes. Saturday, a group of women gathered around our kitchen table to decorate hats the girls will wear. Just think what this hat will look like with flowers and other decorations!
Eric is working full time at Bank of America and is attending a full load of classes at Mesa Community College before and after work. One time this week he returned home to find everyone gone and nothing but V-8 juice for dinner!
Ryan turned 19 years old this week. He is attending Arizona State University (Go Sun Devils!) and working part time in the ASU bookstore. Can you believe our little boy is old enough to serve a mission!
Mark has been traveling out of town every week in the new year. This week, he missed Ryan's birthday, Rachel's birthday and Valentine's day. So, we will celebrate the birthdays later today. Claudia surprised Mark with a CD, DVD and Valentine's treat he discovered in his suitcase when he arrived in California. Mark and Claudia celebrated Valentine's Day together late Saturday by eating a salad at Baja Fresh and going together to the grocery store. Somehow, roses atop the groceries in a Fry's shopping cart aren't terribly romantic, but they do look nice in the vase atop our kitchen table!
So, are you as breathless as we are? It's all good. Oh, by the way, I didn't mention Claudia's house shopping and dress shopping with Amy, or tending the grandkids or ...
Please visit Mark's Flickr page for more family photos ... and smile! Life is an adventure.
Good night, and God Bless.
