Got a 2 Point

Well, what should I write about today? It seems like such an uneventful life without football consuming our every waking moment. Actually Trevin is playing flag football still, but it isn't near the time consumer that tackle was for the older boys.

Travis got his braces off this week and got his retainer. His teeth look really good. It is also end of term this week, so both Travis and Tyrel have been busy making up missing assignments to get in before it is over. I can't understand why they don't turn it in when they do it the first time. They always seem to get lost if they don't get turned in right away and then they don't get full credit for them. They both have been getting good grades anyway though.

Tyrel got his braces on two weeks ago. So, we are in for another 2 years of orthodontist appointments. He is also taking CERT training and had to spend 13 hours last Saturday in his class and gets to spend another 4 or 5 hours this Saturday. He said last Saturday was the longest day of his life. But he will get 3 merit badges for completing the training, so I think it is worth it even if he doesn't.

Trevin has been practicing his talk for the Primary program this past week. We went to his parent teacher conference this morning and he is the only kid in his class that hasn't missed a spelling word yet this year. His other grades were all really good also. He just needs to work on the neatness of his handwriting. That seems like the report we got every parent teacher conference through elementary for all three of our boys.

Sean was gone over last weekend and up through Tuesday on the deer hunt. He was kind of bummed that Kevin and Kathy weren't there this year, but he had fun and got a deer. It wasn't a monster, but it will do. We just finished cutting and wrapping it up a few minutes ago.

That is all that is going on with us. My dad is doing great after his surgery. The physical therapist said he is where most people are after 6 months of therapy and it has only been 6 weeks, so I guess that means all is going well. He meets with the surgeon the first week of November.

Take care.
