2 Years has gone by, Where To Begin

So, it has been 2 years since I have posted on our blog.  That is a really long time and so much has happened that it would take me FoREvEr to try and catch up so I am going to attempt to start posting again each Sunday.

This week has truly been a life changing one for our family.  After months of searching and an agonizing few weeks of being in limbo, Jon accepted a job offer with GE (General Electric.)  We feel so blessed to have been given this opportunity.  This truly is a great thing for our family.  We are not going to be moving and it is still based out of Houston, Texas which is good for the kids.  They truly have settled here and we love being close to the Jorgensen family.

This week the major events of our family was:

Dean playing Coach Pitch baseball.  He also had his 6th Birthday recently.  We went to Max Bowl and played lazer tag with a ton of friends.  He is all boy and so fun about it.

Autumn Playing her first game for Lacrosse, she also came home from school and said, "Mom I want to search money for people who have cancer."  WOW, well ok.   So we made sugar cookies, posted them on FB, and earned money to donate to the L3 foundation.  It was a beautiful experience and I think she really enjoyed giving to the cause.

Lily playing in a soccer game for her team the (Tinymos)

Makenna continues to work hard at dance and is excited about her Duet this year,  She had her manors banquet at school and so we went and picked out a new dress for the event.  She looked so beautiful.

and Deacon has decided he LOVES being outside particularly in the road and has discovered how to open the back door all by himself YIKES!

I am just trying to keep up with all the activities the kids are in, keep dinner on the table, and the house clean.  Sometimes that is too much in itself.  Then after running to all the activities on Saturday, I sit down and plan my activities for being the Primary Chorister.  This calling truly has become a favorite of mine, and I love playing with the primary children each Sunday.

Here are a few fun photos from the past little bit... Makenna Ready for her Manors Banquet Baby Deacon,   (The Rascal) Cookies for Cancer   #L3          Autumn's Idea Lily warming up with her team the TINYMOS Had to post a picture of taking my girls to the 1989 Taylor Swift Concert.  IT was such a fun experience and the girls LOVED IT! Dean's 6th Birthday at Max Bowl
