It's been awhile...

Sorry, I know...you all want updates, but we have been so busy with, well, LIFE, I haven't even thought about posting in a long time!  :)

Chris started working at his new job the end of June.  He likes getting out of the house and feeling productive!  He is still working very closely with the Boy Scouts in our ward.  Chris has found his new love recently, AOE online.  It's his new favorite game to play while he is unwinding from work. 

I have a grand total of 37 students now!  WOO HOO!  I only have a couple of spots open for new piano students in the afternoon available!  It's completely awesome to be wanted!  I am still teaching music at a local preschool, and the new school year started on 8/22/11.  So far my preschoolers have learned about the Brass family, the Woodwind family and the String family.  They have listened to Peter and the Wolf and Carnival of the Animals.  They have learned how to "Move it, Move it" (their favorite!).  I am busily getting ready to help put on the Young Women and Excellence program for our YW in our ward, coming up in November.  We have been planning, planning and planning!  I was asked to put together the invitations to invite the girl's families to come and the programs for the event that night.  I have also been asked to make my famous home-made-from-scratch angel food cakes...no one knows the delights of my culinary and baking skills in my ward yet...they shall soon see...haha!

Lacey's latest activities include, but are not limited to: walking outside, chasing lovebugs, chasing me, chasing anything, jumping on the bed, getting into the trash (she loves that one), meeting up with her doggie friends on our walks/joggs, jumping into our laps (thinking she is still a baby puppy), and did I mention getting into the trash frequently??  :)

Chris and I are looking forward to spending time with my family over the holidays and they can not come soon enough!  Can't wait to be home!
