It's Conclusive...


....Jordyn looks like her grandma! This picture was taken this past Saturday when a group of families went from the fair at Agassiz over to Harrison to kill some time, see the sandcastles, and have dinner. The girls were making wreaths out of these tree branches and they put one on Jordyn. She was surprisingly good-natured about it until she realized that she had the power to pull the leaves out one by one. Then she was on a mission!

Right now Don is painting our basement family room. It's YELLOW. Very yellow. Kinda like our kitchen when we were growing up. I figure it'll bolt the boys awake when they walk through it in the morning. It's so surprising to see a colored wall in a house of ours...we've always been the white/off-white type of people.

Both girls are napping, and the boys should be home within the 1/2 hour. As of yesterday, Dylan still didn't know if he had made the volleyball team or not. Evidently the teacher who is also the coach was absent yesterday so the roster never got posted. So yesterday the entire squad of 21 boys stayed after yet another day to practice because they didn't know who got cut. It wouldn't be so bad if the practice wasn't from 4-6. And of course Nathan's play practice is over at 4:30, so we get the pleasure of driving twice to Poppy after school. But I'm not complaining too loudly because we now have a zippy little care that gets great mileage!

I have Danica W/TH/F this week. Not much going on in the evenings (outside of chauffeuring the boys) and then this weekend we have the Langley Flippers award ceremony. I think that's all the news there is at this moment...but I will log in and let you know Dylan's status on the v-ball team as soon as I learn it!
