Long Time No Post

Ok. I feel kind of bad for not having posted in a while. I know that Lourdes' family is checking in on her/us via this blog, so I am going to try to do much better. We are camping this weekend, so I should have some pictures first of next week.

Life has been busy. (Isn't it always?)

Trying to get back into the routine of school has been a little stressful. Both boys are doing well, but both are looking forward to a long weekend break :o)

Lourdes is doing great in school. She made a 105 on her first test (Calculus). I don't see school being any problem for her :o) It was fun explaining the extra 5 points over 100. Apparently there is not extra credit in Spain :o)
She got to go to her first high school football game last night. She said she had fun. She is making lots of friends @ church, and that makes me very happy.
She has been here 1 month today :o) Time is already flying by. I know her family probably misses her dearly, because we love having her here. I know that we will miss her when she goes home next spring.

Today is Tim's last day @ Nissan. He'll be taking a break from working outside the home for a little bit. He's going to try his hand @ "Mr. Mom" It should be pretty interesting :o) Pray for Us.

We took advantage of a great deal on an Altima, before Tim left. I got a new 2008, for 1/2 price. My van was doing ok, but I wasn't sure it would hold up for too much longer. We'd heard the deals were great, so we went to check it out. I love the smell of a new car--- It's much better than the dirty locker socks my van smelled like, after it rained :oP

Well I guess I better finish getting ready for camping.
