Morgan poses with Spring flowers

We've upgraded to a Nikon SLR digital camera, and while we try out fumble through the myriad of features, Morgan is a happy model for us. Here she is posing on our porch with some flowers in the background.

Annie Ant by Allison

Today is National Teacher Day, so we have a special update for you.

Allison has been working on a short story that she delivered to her teacher today to tell her how "perfect" a teacher she has been. She had no help from us until she asked us to staple it together. We were quite surpsied at her secret gift which she has been working on for a couple of weeks.

You can read the entire story and see the wonderful cover drawing right here.

Morgan starts her career

Morgan began her soccer career on Saturday as well. As you can see her "jersey" is a tad long. She plays once a week on Saturday's after Allison's game.

Powder Puff Derby Finish

Allison finished 5th in standings. She was slotted against 17 other cars, as they combined two age groups together. We're just happy the wheels stayed on. Her car ran six heats, and was close enough to be competitive, clocking a trip down the track at about 2.95 seconds. The winning times we just under 2.9 seconds.

Powder Puff car ready

Allison's car is ready. She designed the bright color scheme. The wheels are a little suspect, so we'll be packing some super glue and a hammer for Saturday's heats. We've got seven girls to beat to take home the trophy.
