Let’s just jump right in to updates, oldest to youngest…
Ben wrapped up his freshman year in late April and I went and helped him move out of his apartment, it was a beautiful day and he was really ready for school to be out. He ended his year still in the engineering school and is planning on staying with it next year. He is planning on moving next year to a different place and living with more people to bring down the rent. Bob and I both noticed a more mature son but for the most part he’s still our Ben! He was home for two days and left to go to Illinois to work on one of our rigs, this was pretty big news since up until now none of our kids have ever shown an interest in working for Dad! He worked out on the rig for three weeks, came home for the a weekend and has been out in CA fulfilling his ROTC duties for a month, so even though he’s been out of school for a while we haven’t really seen him much. He will be home in a week until he goes back to Ann Arbor in late August.
Sara, busy like always! She ended her ski season happy with her performance and looking forward to next year. She added a few more credits with school and is enrolled in classes this summer so she can graduate on time. She’s working two jobs this summer saving up for all that training next fall and continues to do dry land training this summer. She’s driving now and is so happy that her wonderful uncle gave her a car for a VERY good price :)
Mariada, continues to “grow” she ended her school year with all A’s which was so impressive, she really worked hard. She ran track and played for her travel soccer team all spring both of which she enjoyed. School ended on a Friday and on Monday she started drivers training, which she is currently doing, she has driven twice now and according to her it’s no big deal! (Dad has taken her up and down our dirt road a number of times) She is also babysitting quite a bit and is REALLY REALLY looking forward to soccer camp in July!
As always we continue to be so blessed and are enjoying staying busy with work and kids.
