Soooo.....yeah....it's been a while!
Well, what can I say...it's been QUITE a while! A lot has happened in a year :)
Zita is a year old now, she's walking, chattering, signing and just being downright adorable! I can't imagine what life was without her!
Ben has just finished his 4th year at CMU...no more music for him though *sigh*, he has taken up Religion as a second major now...and not with the idea of becoming a pastor or anything Christ like : ( just....religion(s).
Alex has finished his 2nd year at Delta and is ready to head to Grand Valley in the fall....it's going to be too weird to have him gone, of all the kids so far, he's been here the longest (not counting Jon, who STILL lives here!), I think Zita will feel his absence, too. I think he's ready to head out into the world though, as much as I don't like it, but I have to let go, eh?
Em just finished her first year at CMU, not sure if she liked it or not. She's still pretty undecided as to what she wants to do with her life, I guess that's pretty normal, at least it is around this household! She's been working with her other parental_unit on docks since she got home from college, but will be leaving soon for a summer camp job, she's pretty excited :)
Christen and Dominic are still in school, only for about another week-ish. They've both been busy with little league, however, Christen has yet to play a game. Soon enough, soon enough!
Ugh, 25th class reunion this summer!! Where did the time go!?!?!?! Oh yeah...into kids ;) hehehe. I guess it'll be nice to see friends from school and people that I graduated with. Funny things, reunions. Some people treat you like you've been friends forever even though they forget how much they detested you in school, how they went out of their way to avoid you, God forbid you happened to be their locker partner the first day of school...amazing how quick you got a locker to yourself :) NOW, you're friends on Facebook...talked to as if somehow, an alien stole their memories....*shrug* go figure....There are people that I can't wait to see again! Why is it that we feel as if we KNOW these people, just because we spent time on a building with them for 9 months of the year. How is it that we can start up conversations as if no time has gone by at all? It's a strange relationship that we have with fellow classmates, I could almost find myself getting defensive for these people, but really, who are they to me? Before FB, they were just people that I got to visit with every 5 years...I dunno, strange, but not strange.
How about that weather!!!!!!!!!!! Today finally feels like summer, although, technically, it's not summer yet! Weird weather though...rain, rain, rain...oh...and more rain. Let's not forget about the wind! Whew! I feel so heartbroken about the people that have lost their lives in the South and West. Wow, so many tornadoes :( So many lives taken. So much destruction. I think I'll take my cold, snowy winters as opposed to tornado alley!
It feels strange to be blogging again! I hope to get back into it again, though.

Holy guacamole and miracle whip! I had to comment before I even read it because it's been sooooooooo long!
Ok, now that I've read it, I have to comment again. Hi, Lyne! Is Alex still planning to became a chiropractor?
No, he's not, he's studying Exercise Science (at least that's what I think it is)
Yes, I will try to be a better blogger :)
