What's going on....

Well, I have no new pictures to post, but thought I'd post a little update on our lives. we have been busy just settling back into the routine after our Christmas holiday. I am excited that I am going to be going to a conference in Tokyo next week!! There have been tons of budget problems in our district (and across the military really) and so most of the conferences have been cancelled, so I honestly didn't think this one was going to happen. I am SO happy that it is still on! We had hoped to plan a weekend trip to Tokyo for all of us around this trip, but since we didn't find out for sure that I was going until yesterday, we couldn't pull it together on such short notice. I'm excited to get to experience some WINTER time - wahoooo! :)

Adysen will be celebrating the 100th day of school next week and then there is Valentine's Day, of course. Allie got to be the "Star of the Week" at school last week which was super exciting for her!! They are still enjoying their friends and their time at school. Adysen is the top reader in her entire class which makes us very proud - she loves reading!! Adysen and Allie have both started soccer off base. We were just not impressed with the base program and hope this "club" will be a better experience. Their first game is in 2 weeks.

Kelsey is keeping busy with tons of homework and the yearbook club. She also joined the golf team, but doesn't think it's her "thing" so she may not be coninuing that. The bus schedule was rearranged this week and her bus now comes later which is a wonderful thing - she can leave the house at 6:20 instead of 6:00 like before. Those 20 extra minutes of sleep will be much appreciated!!

Jason is busier than ever with his job which is good. We are hoping that it pays off for him soon. He enjoys it so much and is good at it.

We are looking forward to a visit from Nonna and Papa Royce in a couple of weeks. Our first visitors - yay! We are SO excited to see them and will really enjoy showing them around!!

That's about it for now. I'm sure we'll have more pictures to post soon..........
