Update

Well, I've noticed it's been a few weeks since I've updated the blog, again...Let's see, since the Thomas clan came to visit Phil and I went to Stony River (YUM) for our anniversary, the boys have begun lacrosse (yes both of them), and Phil has outfitted the boat with fishing gear! Guess where he's been every weekend (hint hint). Actually this is his weekend off (of the boat) since he's on-call. Go figure, another holiday, another on-call...which he's none too happy about.
Regarding the boys. As I mentioned, they are both playing lacrosse now. Right now practices are on Wednesdays and Fridays from 8pm-9:30pm and Sundays from 4pm-6pm. Games begin at the end of September and will be on Saturdays. PHEW, I hope they change the practice schedule once games start! Could you imagine Wed, Fri, Sat, Sun!? Way too much for a recreational sport. They are both loving it and Phil is picking it up very well. He already knows how to scoop, catch, and pass. We just need to work on his running skills. Jeff has been practicing with the older group since he's a little hot tamale on the field.
Speaking of Jeff, some of you know and some not. Jeff was selected for testing into the gifted and talented program at school. During the course of the next two weeks he will be testing (every day) and then they will look at his scores to determine if he should be in the program. I think that's so exciting and shows how well he does in school. Even if he doesn't make it into the program (which I think he will), to be selected is an honor!
So, think that about covers everything here for the moment. Mom and Dad leave on their big adventure..their Alaskan Cruise...on Saturday. Hope they have a great time!

Ciao for now!
