Congratulations Chris!

I forgot to put this in my last post, but I guess that's okay, Chris deserves his own post.

He took two college classes last semester and did so well, he got a letter from the college congratulating him on being named to the Part Time Student Honors List!  Way to go honey!!

OK, I've been slacking ....

I knew it had been a while since I've posted, but yikes, I guess it's been almost 2 months (hanging my head in shame) ...

My excuse?  I don't really have one.  Yes, we've been busy, but realistically, not so busy I couldn't write a few lines.  

What have we been busy doing?  Watching A LOT of basketball (and daddy's been busy working a lot in the concession stand).  David's team has been playing really well.  They actually had something like a 7 game winning streak until Tuesday night when they lost a very close game to St. Louis (whom we don't normally play).  I truly think they probably would have won that game if they hadn't played a make-up game the night before in Belding.

Here are a couple of excerpts from the school announcements where David was listed:

Friday night the JV Basketball team also picked up a win at home against rival Sacred Heart. Connor Riley led the team in scoring with 16 points and also had 5 rebounds.  Jordan Balhorn added 8 points and 3 steals. David Gormley scored 7 points while Wyatt Sackett scored 8 points and snagged 12 rebounds.  Great job JV mustangs.

JV Boys Basketball lost a close game to St. Louis last night 42-39. Top Performers were:  Connor Riley with 12pts, 5 assists, & 5 steals; Cody Christensen with 12pts; David Gormley with 6pts, 8 rebounds, 5 steals, & 4 assists; and Wyatt Sackett with 6pts & 11 rebounds.

I'm pretty sure that's the most rebounds David has ever had!!

Jonathan got to take a limo ride on Wednesday after school .... His friend Parker's parents surprised Parker (and a few of his friends) with a limo ride to Mt. Pleasant to go to dinner at Pizza Hut for Parker's birthday.

Other than that ... Work and school ... Not much else exciting going on.  Oh, I guess one big thing -- we now have TWO teenagers in the house.  It's hard to believe Jonathan is 13 years old.  I'm not sure where the last 13 years have gone, he sure has grown up fast, and he's almost as tall as me.  I keep asking him to stop growing, but he's not listening to me.  :-) 

Well, that's all for now.
