This week we are starting school with our kids, well i should say that kristi is starting school. She is the one that really teaches them. i teach then music on friday's and that's about it. we started a coin system in our house. if the kids finish their work on time they get a nickle, if they behave and do good things they get a penny for each one. At the end of the week they can use this money to "buy" things like, candy from the candy jar (.10) or miniuets on the wii or x box (1 cent per minuet). We are hopeing this will go good for them. especially isaiah because if he dosn't focus on his work it takes him all day when it should really only take him till noon.
We went rollerblading last night and Isaiah took the new dog. She pulled him while he rollerbladed and he thought that was soo cool. Julean took his lightning McQueen with him yesterday and he has this really big one. he calls it his "big, big Queen" he is obsessed, kristi got his a lightning mcqueen comic book and he wanted me to read it to him several times last week. Matthias is turning into a real stubborn kid. he will not eat. I don't know why but he is just not that interested in much food. Maybee we will just start feeding him candy? that should work. Adriana is doing good too. the other day she said she wanted to be a boy so she could do fun things like cut wood and work on the farm - thats daddy's girl.
Things at chamber ministries is going well. We are a little tight on our finaces for activities. I was hoping that our paintball tent at homecoming would be a good fundraiser for us but we really didn't make much off of it. WE have a couple of fundraising things coming up in October so things will just have to be a little tight till then. The ministry is going well. we are getting excited about starting the new school year and starting up PTO, and Chamber. I think we are going to call the after school program "spotlight" again.
-thats all for now.
