I feel like I have been so busy with so much going on, but when I look back, I don't feel like too much at all has happened.
Andy is home from the Middle East. He had a wonderful time. The people there were so good to him and he felt so loved and he felt so at home. I'm so thankful that they took such good care of him. He also did a super job with the souvenirs! He isn't much of a gift guy, but he hit it out of the park this time!
His back is killing him from the fall off of the roof. It is so sad to see him in so much pain. He is either miserable and awake or totally sedated. No doctors have really said what is wrong with him at this point and I think that is very discouraging. He has an MRI scheduled for Friday. We'll see.
Hays had middle school open house. I cannot believe it. My baby! It was really good. I like the principal. One of the first things they assured the incoming middle schoolers (and parents) was that the lockers are not big enough to be stuffed in to. Okay. We are praying that Hays and Kenna are in the same "team" and that their "team" teacher is Mr. Aspen. The sixth graders rotate in teams during their morning classes and I think it would be really good if Hays and Kenna could have each other for support next year. And Mr. Aspen seemed very nice and his classroom wasn't too overstimulating and there were no Buddhist prayer flags hanging up. So, overall, the middle school visit was a hit!
We had our KIVU leadership team in this weekend and it was so much fun! The fellowship time was wonderful! We have such great people and I loved being with them!
Hays, Maggie and Tiki stayed with Gretchen and Kenna Willis for the weekend and I know they had a blast! Gabby stayed with the McKinnis girls and loved every minute! Dax stayed at home playing his mama's boy role to perfection!
Sunday I did a "test run" for my triathlon. It was okay. The swimming was fine. I actually enjoy the swimming! The biking was absolutely horrible and I hated every second of it! I actually only did 8 of the 12 miles because I just didn't want to do another "lap" around the rim. The "running" part was great, but there was no running. It was just a nice walk around the rim and a great view of Durango. The race is next Sunday. YUCK and YIKES!
Today I took Dax to Kindergarten open house. He loved it! I know that he really wants to have Mrs. Greenburg (Tiki's teacher) as his teacher next year. He said that her class was the only class he liked!
There is my update in a fairly non-emotional nut shell. Adoption Fellowship Group tomorrow night!!!
