New New New!!!

Its been months since I have written and I'm sorry. Its been a crazy busy few months.

I got a new job and I am now working at MaxRave in the Boise Towne Square mall as Assistant manager!! Yay!

Mikey is loving 5th grade and doing very well. He is now in Band and plays the Trombone. He will be joining the young marines in May! Hopefully that will get his little butt on track.

Serenity is going to preschool thru Headstart and loves it!! She has been meeting new friends and loves to go to school.

Adrina is learning more words daily and she is quite the little comic! She is attempting to potty train herself. She has taken the initiative and regularly tells us when she has to poop! :)

Mike is working part time through a company called LaborMax. its night labor and not consistant but its better than nothing! He made Dean's list twice so far in school. He is kicking butt!!

We moved into a house a week ago!! Finally we are out of apartments! Its bigger and we pay less rent monthly. It is such a wonderful change for us!

On a sad note, we had to put our beloved Kalli to sleep. We miss her terribly and Mickey misses her too but, he is doing very well with out her.

I am hoping to have time to write on here more often but for now this will have to do!!

I am sorry it has been so long since I have written.

We have been moving these past few weeks! We moved into a larger apartment in our complex! It is fantastic! It is a 3 bedroom 1 bath. it is only 200 sq ft larger than our other apartment but, it has a much better layout and of course the extra room! Also, it has a washer/dryer in the unit!! How awesome!!! The kids love it and Mike and I love it as well! Adrina especially loves being able to walk all over the place since the entire floor is carpeted. Our last apartment was all tile and I was too afraid she would fall and hit her head.

In other news... Mike started school this month! He is doing this on his own and is so thrilled to be learning again! He is going to Brown Mackie college to get his Associates in Business management. His ultimate goal is to open his own tattoo shop. He is doing incredibly well. The way they have classes set up is, instead of 4 or 5 classes during a semester, you have one class per month! The first month is a fantastic class called Becoming a master student. It is a mixed class and is all about how you learn best and excercises to teach you to become a master student! It is a phenomenal class and I think that they should require it at every college!

We visted California last month for Adrina's first birthday. It was a very nice visit and, although we miss our family and friends, we have no intention of ever moving back! We love our slower paced Idaho! :) We have made some wonderful friends here and our life is finally falling into place!! We will make trips to California when we can!
