Just got word last night that Wally was accepted into Brigham Young University-Provo!! I am so excited for him, but at the same time...WE CAN'T BE THAT OLD!!!

Seems like yesterday Wally was just a little boy:

"I'm going at the store!" - as he rides his little tricycle around.

"This is what you call butterfinger!" - as he sticks his fingers in the butter.

"Fridg-a-frater" - his name for the refrigerator

"Did you know God has a T-shirt?" he asks Grandpa.

"No, what does it say?" Grandpa replies.

"Nobody knows..." said very mysteriously.

WE LOVE YOU AND ARE SO PROUD OF YOU!!!

I guess running a household of 7 keeps me busier than I ever thought! I can't believe I haven't posted anything since October! I wonder why...(Farmville)...whatever could keep me from posting about my amazing family...(Farmville)...I really need to get rid of those activities keeping me from sharing our wonderful lives....(Farmville).

Guess I'll do a brief update of all our happenings!

Let's start with Wally! Who is that? We hardly ever see Wally anymore. If he isn't at school, he's rehearsing for some kind of play or musical! Currently, he is a senior in high school planning to go BYU-Provo, Utah. He is eagerly waiting to hear whether he was accepted or not. BYU-Idaho already accepted him, but he really wants to go to Provo. While he's waiting, he is performing as Benny in 'Guys and Dolls' at a community theatre sort of nearby! Before that, he played Bob Cratchit in 'A Christmas Carol' at his high school. Busy, busy, Wally!!!

Pokemon King has been working hard in homeschool. We are trying to improve his writing skills and he is doing a great job! Like Wally, he volunteers at COSI, a local science museum. It's a great experience for him! He's also looking forward to playing soccer in the spring.

Dinodude is as active as ever! He played football in the fall and still plays his own football games in the bonus room! We love to watch him! He, too is going to play soccer in the spring, but I'm sure it will be back to football in the fall.

Rocket has amazed us with his musical talent. I started him on piano lessons this school year and he is flying by! He moves forward in the book on his own before he has even passed off the songs and does quite well on them!

Babymoon loves to do his school, too. And the boy loves to dance!! We put the movie 'Cars' on for him and we are constantly backing it up so he can dance to the opening song! He does that with other shows, too.

Same old, same old with Bond and me! Working, working, working!

We had a wonderful Christmas and New Year and I'm looking forward to posting more from our family!
