Little Updates

I hope everyone had an awesome Turkey Day. It was pretty special for us. We started new traditions while incorporated old ones... even down to the food. And even though it was just us, we still dressed nicely and made a huge beautiful meal. It was fun! We watched Christmas movies and played lots and lots of games. There was one thing though that makes the holidays very ODD... we had our air conditioner on!! Yes, it has been absolutely beautifull lately and warm. But as I was saying... we have the old traditions and the NEW!!!

Happy Thanksgiving

Lots of you have been asking how the kids are doing, if they are adapting well...new school, new home, etc....
Emiliah has just learned how to read (she's in kindergarten) and she received an award for her grades and attitude in school.
Obi (for those who know what we have been through with his reading hurdles- he's in 2nd)has scored srtaight A's and on top of that he is at a 3rd grade reading level!! YES!!And he received an award for an art project (out of the whole school!WOW!)
And then Jesh got straight A's, a few different awards, about 5 gift certificates and he received the highest award that is given in elementary school and is a big deal in Florida.WOW!! I am so proud of each of them (wish I could say they get that from me... but you all know me too well).The kids are adapting just fine.

I almost forgot... Obi has become a young jedi.
He got to fight Darth and defeated him. He has always done well as a young padawon, but now he is a true Jedi!! He has earned his name... 'Obi Wan'
