A year and a half later, and I decided to begin blogging again. Looking back, I wish I would have kept up with my blogging as it would be great to go back and read all of my posts as my two beautiful girls grew. Alicynn and Faith each day continue to grow into two beautiful young ladies.
Each girl is very different. Alicynn is very musically inclined and in January competed in her first competition called ISMA (Indiana State Music Association); she earned a gold medal. Alicynn would not let Greg or I sit in the room when she performed because we make her nervous; I do not really blame her either as I would be nervous if my parents would have listened to me singing as I was being judged. We were so very proud of her. She sang "Amazing Grace."
Faith loves playing sports and of course is very competitive. Last summer she was on a "travel" softball team. I use the word "travel" loosely as one weekend we traveled to Santa Claus (45 minutes away), Henderson (15 minutes), Newburgh (15 minutes) and the Evansville area. She loved it and met many new girls in which she is really good friends with now. Usually she played in the catcher position. She did a great job and took several beatings as the equipment did not fit her very well, but considering her size, it fit her the best it ever would.
Greg is still working at E.I. Sports, and I am still teaching at Memorial. Our lives are very busy, but we have worked really hard at balancing things better. Since our attempt to be home more often, we have actually done really well with it, and I really think it has made a difference in our girls (and mommy).
I will be uploading new pictures soon. All of our pictures are really dated.
Until next time...Angela (and family)
