Forever and a Day

So I know it has been forever since I have blogged, but I rarely have time to breathe. I thought I might check in and give everyone a little update of what's going on in the Nelson house. Where to begin...

School is going good for everyone. Riain is doing well in third grade. Alycia has adjusted nicely to middle school. She has been very responsible with everything. Christian could be better. It is always a struggle with that boy, but we are trying to work through it. As for me, my class is great. I am lucky, I have a good class. They can get a little talkative, but so can I. I have been very busy, there is so much more then just teaching. I think things are starting to level off. I hope so at least.

Ok, let's move on to sports. Christian is playing 7th grade football. His team is 2-0, so that is cool. He has had a few plays, but he is loving it and that is all that matters for now. Riain's team is 2-2. We won our game yesterday. So that was awesome. Riain had a sack, it was so exciting. He was so happy. Alycia is in training for cheerleading tryouts. We have her in a cheerleading class and she is going to get private lessons. I want to make sure she is ready for tryouts in the spring. She has been working on her roundoff back hand spring and I think will have it down in a month. The private lessons will help her get her jumps and all the other things that will help her make the squad. It is harder then it used to be and way more competitive.

Well I guess that is all the news for now. I will post a few football pics next time. Hope you all are doing well. Until next time...

Sounds like you are all doing so good! Still can't believe the kids are as old as they are ...

Thanks for the update - we've missed you!
