Someone's getting an early start to elementary school!

Mia took a test to see if she was GATE material.  She made the score, but had to wait to see if she made the cut to get into the 8-2 Pre-GATE program at MU Lujan where JB goes to school.  Well, she did!  Mia starts Pre-GATE next school year!  I'm so proud of her, and she's so excited to be a "Baby Dragon" at MU Lujan.

Sleepy Baby

It's hard being a kid. Mia fell asleep just like this after a tough morning of making demands, big messes, and harassing her big brother.

Last night and adios!

For Tiff's last night home, we played together in a futsal game.  We had our game written up in the paper and had some photos of us online.  Pretty neat!  We won the game, then went and had dinner together with her friend Jay.  Today we saw her off to head back to Gramma and Papa Mike to continue getting smarter.  We miss her, but it was such a wonderful visit, there were no reasons for tears, except from Mia for loving from Sissy.  We miss her, but we know she's going to do great things and we are rooting here on from home.  Love you, Tiff!

Family time.

John, Tiff, Mia and I walked a 2k this past Saturday to support the U13 national soccer team.  JB actually ran it because our family friend Sean was running it too.  JB actually placed 6th overall!  He says he prefers running races like this to soccer.  As long as he's active!
