Good Bye Dancing, Hello Football!

Well, I have good news gang. We hired a REAL, PROFESSIONAL dance teacher!! She has taken over and seems to be doing well. The kids are happy and they actually have moves beyond the Cabbage Patch Kid, Rodger Rabbit, Lawn Mower, and Sprinkler. I now have a prep period and I got a few extra bucks for humiliating myself by dancing in front of teenagers. Being a dance teacher will definitely be added to the list of crazy things I have done.

Now that Dance is over, Football is full on. Unfortunately, the boys lost their first two games, but I have high hopes that things will be more successful in league. P.A.M.A. (Garry's name for the wives club) has secured an area near the corner of the stands to corral our kiddos and let them play. It's working out pretty good. (Great idea Kandice!) The kids play and run around and we chase them. Last game Ledger learned how to say "touch down" with his arms high in the air and "ebra" for zebra. I just can't believe how smart he is. He is learning new words everyday. My Mom keeps reminding me that I was worried that "he might not ever walk or talk". Amazing how I worried for nothing. The nature of being a Mom, Right?

Send good thoughts to the boys when they play this Friday night. We are sheduled to play a division 1 team, so it will be a tough game. We could really use a win.

Can I just say, you are AWESOME for teaching that dance class. Maybe you could teach me some moves...

Also, I'm excited and a little bit jealous that Ledger is starting to talk. Eden still communicates through grunting. It looks like the baby signs paid off!
