Leap Day

Well it is Feb. 29th and since it only comes around once every 4 years, I thought I had better make note of it in my blog. I have a colleague who is celebrating her 13th birthday today. She only gets a birthday every 4 years so it is special. I remember meeting an older couple who were celebrating her 16th birthday once on Feb 29th. Imagine being 64 and finally being able to get your driver's license. (just kidding)

We are all fine. Trying to figure out taxes, music contest and other spring dilemnas. Hope all of you are doing fine also. Keep leaping ahead today.

Science Fair

The science fair is tonight at school and that means a lot of kids have spent the past few days scrambling to finish. Laura was no exception. Here are a couple of pictures of her doing experiments to test the electrical conductivity of sports drinks. She is finding out if sodium content of the drinks is related to its conductivity and whether those that claim to have more "electrolytes" (which sodium is) have better conductivity. Sue is running the fair again this year. She is such a good teacher. :)

Sherry

Thanks you all for your love and support of our family when my sister Sherry passed away last week. She was one of the greatest blessings of our lives and will be missed deeply. We are relieved that her suffering is over and look forward to the day we will see her again in heaven. Thank you for the cards, flowers and monetary gifts that allowed us to provide for her funeral.

There is no way to describe the impact she had on our lives except to say that we loved her with all of our hearts.

White February!!!

Snow, Snow, Snow----- We got about 11 inches of snow on Tuesday and a little more today including about 1/2 inch of ice. This is our 7th snow day of the school year. WOW! Allie loves it and has been outside every day. The rest of us are content to stay in the cabin. :) Wed. church was cancelled last night and school again today. I am going to try to shovel out sometime today.

I have a link to a picture album for pictures of Laura and Allie. Laura's are homecoming pics and Allie is dressed as sacajawea in the last few pictures for a school project. Have a warm day!!

Here are the pics

Catching Up

I haven't posted in a while because I wanted to put up some pictures of Laura's homecoming ceremony. They are on another computer and I am still trying. Laura will be 16 in a couple of days and she is very excited. She went with Allie and a couple of friends to see a 3D movie of "Hannah Montana" in KC and they had a good girls night out. The next night they stayed with the same girls at their house. It was a fun weekend for them.
Sue has been recovering from Pneumonia and is back at work today. She is still pretty tired by the end of the day. I am in prayer about new responsibilities in ministry and would welcome any prayers for guidance and direction. I want to serve exactly where God wants me and want to avoid the temptation to take my own path. I will get pictures and or videos posted as soon as I can. Hope everyone is staying warm. We are in for a couple more days of ice and snow.
See ya soon,
Kyle
