BUSY! BUSY! BUSY!

I am at work so no new pics. today, just a quick update! Well, school is getting ready to start AGAIN! Busy summer, AGAIN! Sean coached Ty's All-Star baseball team with Nate (Kortnie's boyfriend and HUGE baseball freak) So, that was our vacation days! Jessi played softball this summer, so we had games Monday, wednesday, friday, saturday, and practices inbetween. I wouldn't have had it any other way! As soon as baseball was over Sean went to St. Louis for 3 weeks for work. While he was gone I decided that we needed a bigger house and started looking and we are in the middle of moving 3 blocks away to a 4 bedroom, 2400 sq.ft. 2 level. I had a great deal of anxiety to think about Kortnie moving out! So, now she is going to stay at home at least this first year. I am not old enough to have two children in college. CRAZY! Kort is going to CSI and taking generals and wanting to go into dental hygiene. Start saving Kortnie and Nate want to get married in Mexico. 1 1/2 years away.
Ty is starting High School this year! we will be transporting him about 20 miles to Valley High School. We are working on getting him his driver's license then he can drive himself.
Jessi is starting the 5th grade which is just behind our house.
They are all very happy about moving into a bigger house. They have been very helpful, I don't know how we moved so many times without them. It is nice to have the strength of a 6' tall 200lb teenage boy! He picked up the slack of getting old! Our computer is fixed at home now so pics to come soon!

Thanks so much for the update! It sounds like you have had a really full summer with the all the kids' activities plus Sean being out of town. I can't believe Kortnee is old enough to be planning to get married! It sounds like Nate fits perfectly into the family with his love of baseball. I'm also excited to hear that you've moved into a home where you can all fit more comfortably. I love that you found it all on your own Robyn, you go girl! I'm looking forward to seeing the pictures!

Glad to see you're on again. We've missed the pix & info. 20 miles in the snowy winter - ugh huh - my kids could just adjust to the school we're near, I'm not that kind. I wish you lots of luck. Thanks for keeping us posted. Love, mom
