Entry 367: A Change

We have been keeping this quiet until it was final, but Lance is transferring to a different building next year. He will still be teaching in Liberty, but will be teaching at Liberty Middle School. Right now Lance has to be at work by 7:00 and just has enough time to drop Julie off at the bus stop. Next year Lance's school does not start until 8:10, so there will no longer be a rush to get ready in the morning. Lance has been working with 8th graders for 10 years and is really looking forward to moving down to the 7th grade level.

Entry 366: The Goodwill Of Others

As you may or may not know, Lance's mother has been going through some health issues lately. We won't go into any details, but it has been causing both of us some sleepless nights. We both worry about Lance's mom and dad and feel bad about not being able to spend more time with them.

Let's fast forward to last night when Lance talked to his mom and dad. Lance asked them what they did today and dad said the church choir came to their house and sang for them. This was such a thoughtful thing for them to do because Kay was in the choir an that is one of the things she misses the most. It is nice to know that there are still people out there who go out of there ways to make others feel better.

Entry 365: Bobby's Socks

Bobby has a little game that he likes to play every morning with Julie's socks. Julie will put her socks on the bed, but Bobby then jumps up on the bed and takes the socks. He puts the socks in his mouth and will shake them around. The entire time Julie will be trying to get the socks out of his mouth while Bobby is growling at her. Usually Julie will get the socks, but at times Bobby will win and runs around the house shaking the socks in his mouth. When Julie gets her socks back though, Bobby will always lay on the bed and just watches Julie. Like Lance always says, "Bobby likes to be the center of attention."

Entry 364: Our Guarantee

We have decided to take our blog in a new direction. Previously we have been updating the blog when we have pictures, a really funny story, or some big news. The problem with this is sometimes it happens and we are just too tired to put it on the blog and eventually forget about it, or we will do something and forget to take pictures and then think no one would want to read it without pictures. Well we have decided that no matter what we are going to update the blog everyday with some story or picture from our day.

Will it be something exciting everyday??? If you answered yes to this then you really don't know us real well because we lead some pretty ordinary boring lives. We can guarantee you though that there will be some form of new content everyday, so keep checking back.

Entry 363: Season Tickets

Entry 362: Finally

After what seems like months and months of cold weather and snow, we finally seemed to have turned a corner and the weather is nice. We celebrated today by picking up the sticks in the yard and starting our first fire of the year. Julie wanted to make smores with the fire and Lance was happy to oblige.

Entry 361: Rainy Night

Tonight it has been raining with thunder, lightning, and we had a brief time of hail. Whenever it is a thunderstorm the dogs get scared and run to find Julie to protect them. As you can see below, tonight they found her on the couch.
