Potpourri............

Hi All,

It has been a while since I updated, so I thought I better let you all know the latest.

We have been having rather strange weather, it warmed up for several days and then got very wind, which resulted in yet another loss of power! Yes, less than a week after getting our power back, we lost it again, but thankfully this time it was only for 3 hours! The winds were pretty bad and several people sustained major damage in the area.

The progress on the kids bathroom is moving along nicely now that we have electricity. Russell is doing a really nice job on it and it going to look great when it is finished. We wished we could have replaced their tub/shower, however because of how the drain is positioned it would have meant special ordering something and right now we just weren't a position to spend that much on a tub/shower unit.

The kids are doing well. We received midterms this past week..........well I won't expand on them too much, as one was very disappointing and one was exactly what we would have expected from her.

Isaac has managed to catch the "bug" that has been going around and missed a couple days of school this past week.

Today we visited the Baptist church, as it was scout Sunday (since we missed the original Scout Sunday due to weather). Darryl did a great job reading and it was a nice service. I must admit though, I really missed our church, people weren't nearly as friendly as I would have expected.

We have a busy week ahead.....Rachel as Solo & Ensemble on Saturday and Darryl has a Boy Scout Badge Day in Shelby County. The troop is working hard so that the sophomores will reach Eagle status by the time they are seniors.

I have some new pictures to post, and will get those up in a little bit. But I first must start on our taxes.

We hope this posts finds you all doing well and staying warm and being safe.

Love,
Tina
