It's Winter Guard Season and LC is off to a great start. We haven't performed in full uniform, hair and makeup yet, so I really look forward to this weekend at Pike High School! The best I could do for those interested is post the music the girls perform to. So as you read through the blog enjoy Ani Defranco's version of Amazing Grace...it is truly...well...amazing.
All the snow has been both a beautiful sight and a mess! I simply love watching Lola romp around, now that it isn't over her head. She runs and gets her ball, then asks to go outside where she can play by tossing it then digging for it. There are few things more beautiful to me than a pup with a face full of snow. Lucy on the other hand is scared to death of slipping and falling so she insists on help. Thank goodness Emily doesn't mind lending her a hand while she is "doing her business". Of course, other down sides are the number of times we've shoveled the walk and driveway-thanks Nathan-and the constant melted snow in the house from our shoes.
At least I'm not in Kentucky with all that ice!!!
Many of you may not know, but Mark started a new job in December. He is working in the local MEPS center, and works with individuals entering the Army. Ever since we moved here, every time we would drive past the Army Finance Center, he would say something along the lines of, "One day I want to work in that building". I say, If you can dream it you can do it!
Lyn is still working away and saving money. She suffered a little setback when her anticipated roommate couldn't go in on the apartment, but at least she figured it out before they moved in!
As of now, all of her earthly possession are boxed up and waiting for the ideal roommate to show up. Until then, I'll keep buying vegetarian frozen foods and listen to her complain about having a little sister who wears her clothes from time to time.
Nate has about driven me nuts with his guitar, but I am proud of how much he has improved. It simply amazes me that he can pick up an instrument and having no background, figure out how to play songs...songs you recognize. He is starting lessons so we will see what more he can do.
Emily, as always, is busy, busy, busy with school and guard. Tonight, she and Hayley are making "western" food dishes for school. Peach cobbler and cornbread...yum!
Okay, next update will hopefully include pictures and perhaps some interesting stories. I do hope you like the show music and as always, you are welcome to post a reply with your own family update!
