The 100th

Special day, this is my 100th posting and I have several things to spill/share.

First, finally we went as a family to a Sioux Falls Baseball game, very exciting, popcorn, wild fans and a very slow game. Thanks to Katie for the idea, and we even ran into a coworker!! We didn't make it to the fireworks, but that is ok.
Doty Scott is here, our dear friends in Mississippi have much to celebrate, the arrival of their son, Doty! Lauren and Allan are good friends and they bought our house in Leland, Lauren has the house looking ten times better than I ever did. They have a precious daughter and now a little boy to make their family four!!! Yeah to them. Another fun thing...the daycare in the neighborhood had a carnival yesterday. We walked over and Ella played lots of games and jumped on the moon-bounce for ever!!! It was long enough, Kyle bailed on me and went home. Ella had her first snow cone and loved it, as well as getting it all over herself, oh well. A much needed nap and she was ready for the evening. We headed to the school playground for a fun family evening.
Later I worked on packing for a work trip and folded clothes, watched the Olympics and went to bed.
Sunday- A great morning, cool outside and we slept in til almost 8. Not bad. Went to church, though the bad side is the nursery has not been available or open for weeks and it has been a experience with Ella with us. She is quiet but loses interest in everything quickly. We have been back and forth with keeping her interested in the halls during service. I am hoping to get her enrolled in the two-year old children's church this fall, I hope to assist in another class too!!

Lots of other stuff, work related and I have been busy with some MOPS stuff. I love it! The newsletter is almost done and we are starting a blog too! So I am getting the kinks worked out of it right now, our first meeting is in three weeks and i look forward to meeting everyone and see some familiar faces too!

And with the Olympics coming to a in and the political conventions starting I have decide my TV time is going to the treadmill. I need to shed some much needed pounds. I did the opposite this year, gained weight during the summer instead of lost. Better get ride of those pounds now.

Thanks for reading!!! To another 100!

Thanks for the mention! The house looked great when you lived here too!! We got our package today- loved all the clothes and the neat book. Ya'll are too sweet and we miss having you in the Delta. Your old street is FLOODED thanks to the tropical storm/hurricane activity.
