This is Katy before her first swim class
Elijah on the trampoline 
I tried and tried to get a shot of him in the air. My camera has a delay so this is the only one I could get. I love it because it looks like he's going to make a shot.
For the last two weeks Katy has been taking swim lessons. She has been doing so good, she was a little bit afraid to put her eyes in the water. We got her some little goggles and she is doing so well. We are so proud of her courage to get on in there and try it. This coming from a child that freaks out when we're in the shower and her eyes get wet. She will be swimming on her own in no time.
One of the things we have been planning on getting when we get to the new house was a trampoline for the kids to play on. Well, the other day one of our neighbors that moved asked Gunnar if we would like to have their trampoline that was in their back yard. Of course he said yes! He went to get it that day, it did need a net for the outside but it wasn't to much. The kids love it! Our next door neighbors have one and they are on it daily. Elijah especially loves it, he gets in there and just hops around like a little kangaroo. He will jump until he is dripping in sweat and we drag him off. Now that he has been jumping on the trampoline he gets in his bed and jumps like crazy without holding on to the rails! I am seriously wondering how long this poor crib is going to last. It has become nearly impossible to dress him in there because he is jumping the whole time. It is not to bad until I try to brush his hair and that's when it becomes very difficult. Every stage brings new joy with this sweet boy. We feel so blessed to have 3 great kids.
We have shown the house now 60 times! Still no offers either, we are getting weary of all the showings and cleaning and just overall stress of selling. We believe God will send a buyer in his timing and we are trying to be patient and wait on Him. Please join us in praying that it will sell soon! The new house is coming along. They finished the drywall this yesterday and should be texturing and painting this week. They also delivered the cabinets today. It is amazing to see all the different things going on.

So FUN! On Friday there is a group going to an airport for lunch if you guys would like to go. It is somewhere west of us and there is a diner right on the runway where the planes fill up and take off. Let me know if you guys are interested.

Love the pictures of the trampoline, can't wait to jump myself! I may put my back out but it will be well worth it! LOL!
I am so proud of Katy. I still freak out when I get water in my eyes. (Missy, you should have interviewed me closer before you chose to marry my son - seems Katelyn has lots of my beautiful, challenging traits!) I enjoyed watching the crowning glories on the jumping machine last night. I am still laughing about some of the antics and attitudes! And I enjoyed the tour of the new home. God is good, all the time!
