Things

I can't believe it's been a few weeks since I've been on here to update how things are going. Life has gotten very busy. First, I got offered a part time temp job working through Babcock out at Hanford. I am filling in for a gal on maternity leave. And of all things I know her! It's been good. I work 3 days a week for 9 hours a day. The days get long at times but I am enjoying it and it's great experience for me. We'll see where it leads me.

Matt, Jeff and Drew took off last week on their annual Salmon fishing trip. They had a great time and came home with a TON of fish. The biggest salmon was 26 pounds. Matt got one batch of smoked salmon done. YUM!

While the boys were out playing Teresa and Haley came for a visit. We LOVED having them here. We took in the fair and of course had some yummy Mexican food.

It was time for haircuts for school. Both girls got a good trim and were ready for Day 1.

Monday was the first day of school. There was some nervousness with it but both did well. Kaitlyn had a little bit of a hard time. Change isn't something she does well but as we come to the end of the week things are going much better and she is finding her way around her new school. I'm SO proud of them and how well they are doing.

Today I found out the girls needed their instruments and music books tomorrow. So off we went to rent Grace her clarinet. I tell you that girl is SO excited. She can already get some notes out and I'm having a hard time getting her to put it down! I'm excited for her to learn her first song.

Matt took off yesterday for Georgia. He found out Tuesday about this trip for work. He is flying home late tonight. But then leaving again in the morning for the weekend. He is meeting his dad, John, Zach, his uncle and cousins son for a weekend filled of grouse and bear hunting. Jackie and the girls are headed this way to hang with us for the weekend. We are SO looking forward to them being here.

All in all things are going well and of course we seem to come to the end of each day and wonder where the time went. Stay tuned for more adventures ahead!
