Nothing new to report.................

and though there's not much new going on here I guess I should write something.  

On Sunday I wasn't feeling very well, so I opted to stay home from church.  I guess there was a lot of changes that happened, a new Bishopric, other's getting callings and so forth. I know more changes are coming in the ward, so it will be interesting to see how everything works out in the end.  Tasha came over after church to have dinner with us.  I made spaghetti for everyone.  It was easy and something I knew they would eat.  I never got to go food shopping on Saturday because we spent the afternoon buying boots for Sheldon for his birthday that is coming up.  

That turned into a major ordeal, but it was a fun day when it was all said and done. Talk about taking a ride through the area and getting to see more than you thought;) We had headed South towards Woodbridge, VA to look for a boot store and ended up on the other side of Manassas, VA at a Red Wing boots store.  There was also the adventure of stopping at a JC Penney's outlet to buy the boys some clothes, and lunch at a Red Robin.  It was a nice day to drive and fun to just get out.  I have to say though the traffic really bites, and the day would have gone by much faster if we hadn't all the traffic.  

Malachi  is starting swim team practice.  He sounded like he was interested is doing it this year and since the programs at the youth center are free, well then why not? We also signed DJ up for swim lessons that will start in a couple weeks so I am looking forward to him learning to be a better swimmer.  He is my most cautious kid.  I know he won't get into the pool without a life jacket on, but I really want him to be able to swim.  I mean I was a late swimmer and I was on the swim team by his age.  It really takes a lot to get him to do things.  He seems fine with the lessons.  I guess in the primary school they will go swimming every week so I think he will be great at it when we leave the Netherlands.

Well, everyone is getting the stomach thing I had.  I hope that it will go by quickly and quietly and be done.  The two boys are nursing a head cold on top of it so I need to really be on top with their meds.  Other then that I no biggie week.  I'll be glad when school is over for DJ, but then it won't be for Kai so the summer is shot.  Guess I need to go, it's a test week.
