Hey ya'll! :) Long time no speak. Well, i have been just super busy, busy, busy. I bet most of ya'll have been the same way. I have more school shopping, haircuts, dry cleaning, house cleaning, and sports registration to do. Ales and Enzo will both be playing soccer. AAAHHH!! My little baby is going to be on a soccer team for the first time. It's a special moment. Ales has been playing for at least four years now. He will also be swimming on Sundays and Tuesdays. It's a nice balance. He loves, loves the water. He has accomplished a level 5 swim rank. That means he can tread water and do freestyle swim for 25 meters.
Okay...enough gloating over my boys. They are great though. :)
So, i see alot of ya'll are reading like crazy. Well, let me give you a recommendation or two---if ya'll have time.
By Lee Gutkind
This book is a creative nonfiction book. Very easy read and smart. WARNING: this book can be a tear jerker to some.

This book is one of the best reads i have had. It is a retold version of the 'Wizard of Oz' by L. Frank Baum. It tells of the birth, teenage years, and adult life of the wicked witch of the west. It is so great. I am such a fan of Elphaba (a.k.a. Wicked Witch of the West).

hello! yay for enzo playing soccer!! he'll be such a cutie.
congrats on ales' swimming level. i miss tanner's swim team, i hate that she wanted to quit so bad :( hope he sticks to it.
those books sound intresting. i'll have to look them up the next time i'm at the library.
Glad the boys are both doing soccer- its hard when the big brother can do stuff that the little brother can't do yet!!
I've read "Wicked" and liked it too! I also just finished reading "Mirror Mirror" by him. It was okay, just different. Not one of my faves!
Oh I've wanted to read Wicked for the longest time now. I'll have to check it out.
Glad to see that you and your family are doing well! It's great to hear from you though.
Aww, you have got to post pics of little Enzo in his soccer uniform! I have pics of Katie when she was 4 and first started soccer and they are so stinkin cute! She is signed up to play this year but says she only wants to do it if it's a girl's only team, I'm not sure if it is so she may or may not play this year.
Best of luck to you and the boys for a wonderful new school year! Is Enzo starting Pre-K this year? Is Ales still at St. Mary's?
Girl you have got to update more often!! How are things??
