Busy Little Bees

Busy Busy Busy! That's how life has been around here. Kurts business has been picking up thanks to the heat. And I have been busy with the new job, and prep for it. I taught my first class last Tuesday! It was sooo much fun, a little nerve wracking but all together fun. I taught boxing. When I put the mic on I suddenly felt sick to my stomach...lol. It went great though better than I expected really. :) This week has been rough for me. Just feeling lonely and knowing that the summer will only get worse for Kurts schedule. Plus on top of all the other things that seem to be bugging, I lost my wedding band. :( I left it on my sink to wash my face and put my moisturizer on and it's gone now. I have searched the house all over and still cannot find it, we've even checked our drains. It makes me sad to have lost it, a new one just isn't the same. I just pray it will turn up.
The kids just continue to grow like weeds. Alaina looks more like a young lady now than a baby. Makes me sad a little. Her hair is now offcially long enough to put into a little ponytail. I did it the other day for church and she just looked so cute! She is quite the spunky little girl. She jabbers and tries to repeat everything that you say, and she can be pretty fiesty. Kurt & I were thinking we should put her into this beginners gymnastics class called tumble tots, because she is not afraid of anything! She is a Shillig girl to the core...lol! She just climbs on everything and is flipping herself around all the time.
Emmitt is becoming such a handsome young man. People are always amazed he's only 3 cause he's so big and talkative. He loves to help! Lark came out here recently to help out with the kids while I did a workshop and he was all about His grandma. It was very cute! He wanted to help grandma with everything, and go wherever she went. He LOVES having family around! We had a scary thing happen with Emmitt the other day in the garage. We were outside playing and Emmitt tried to climb up on Kurts dirtbike like he usually does. This time it was on a different stand and it fell over on top of him! I nearly had a heartattack! I was the only one home so I just lifted the bike up off of him and he climbed out then some construction workers across the street ran over to help me lift the bike on top of the stand again. Luckily he walked away with only a couple cuts on his belly from the peg. Our neighbor firefighter guys came over to check him out afterward. Talk about scary though! Emmitt was more terrified than anything. :( So that's the update on our little family, hope everyone is doing well!

I've had a dirt bike fall on me a couple times it is always scary because they are so heavy. I hope you find your ring and I am glad you are loving your job. I can't wait to see you guys in june.

I love your family picture. I have rearranged my picture wall in my living room and since I have been working in the photo lab at Wal-mart I have learned how to save photos on my computer and send selected pictures to the online at Wal-mart and I have lots of new pictures on my new picture wall of all your families. My most favorite families are the Shilligs. Yahoo.....
