I know I've been MIA!

Sorry it's been a month since I last posted. It's been a busy month and with summer starting up it's only looking busier!!

Well since I last posted we went on a family retreat with our church. The girls LOVED being at camp. We went to one of the Methodist camps around here it was about 3 hours away. Kashyn got to sleep on a top bunk bed and that was the highlight of her weekend. Mylieh got to get up there and take a picture and that was her highlight haha... It was only one night but it was worth it because the girls are still talking about it.

This week I am in training for work. The instructor is in Romania so the class starts at 3AM. I thought it'd be cake. But I am SO stinking tired :o) Almost done though and with me being in class all week from 3AM to about 11:30 AM I am able to go to Kashyn's end of school activities. Today she is in a talent show performing magic tricks. I hope she does well today, she was practicing last night and she's kinda slow.

Kashyn had awards Tuesday. She got the Tidy Desk Award. She was very excited about it. I guess it's something she had been hoping to get :o) She also got an award for reading 25 books. She was pretty proud. But I remember when we were reading the 25 books she didn't like it too much. Her reading is so much better than the beginning of first grade. It's truly an awesome thing watching your child learn to read. I am also enjoying watching her write more. Some of the spellings she has for things is so cute. Here is an excerpt from her journal this year at school.

BY KASHYN-November,the,18,2008Tyrannosaurus rex is big. She eats meete. She is my favorite because she is keeoute.hehe.

I love how she spells meat and cute. And I love the fact that she thinks a dinosaur is cute. haha.

Recently Kashyn and I went to see the Broadway production of Lion King. Kashyn loved it!! I think I might have a play buddy. I love plays!! I wish I could get season tickets. Not sure I wanna drop that kind of cash though.

Mylieh is as cute as ever. She has to be one of the funniest kids I know. Right now she really likes to ask the same question over and over. Example Kermit got a new car and every single day she asks him if he got a new car. He got it in March! Or she will ask where someone is over and over all night. :o) She has really gotten into playing with her baby dolls lately. She's SO cute talking to them and stuff. And yes she asks them the same questions over and over too :o) Last night at dinner she put all her food into her water. She was so proud exclaiming. "I put my fooood in my waa-ter" haha.. Here's a clip

Here is another one I thought was cute.
