Happy New Year 2008

Happy New Year 2008 !!!!!!!!!!!!

We hope everyone had a great Christmas and a great New Years! We stayed up (actually JoAnna made us all stay up) for the ball drop. We then crashed boy were we all tired.

A discussion was started one afternoon about what the years are called now. and in 2010 what will they be called the 10's? We had the 20's 30's 40's 50's up to the 90's and then year 2000. So now what? do we just start over? Maybe this is what they mean about repeating history. let me know what you think. Leave a comment and/or click the survey to the right.

The kids are staring out the new year busy. Patrick was in a commercial for his Taekwondo School and we missed the airing of it so we are trying to get a copy. He will be testing for his Black belt soon. He started Band right after Thanksgiving so it should be fun. He is going to play the Trombone.

Hannah is training Level 4 again this year which is normal at this point. We are at the breaking point of when she hits Level 5 and beyond it starts potentially having a positive effect for future scholarships for schools and so forth.

Eric will be starting school this spring. He has his placement test this weekend and has been admitted to Armstrong Atlantic State University as a non traditional student. The biggest benefit to AASU is that they tailor a lot for working students so it should be a great help.

JoAnna as well as doing what she does (manage the family) is starting back at Taekwondo after getting sick before Christmas. She will also start brushing up on her Spanish for an upcoming trip to Guatemala. More information to follow when we get it.
