Hey everyone, how are you all doing? I know I haven't shared in quite a while. Honestly, haven't really had anything to share about. Also, I know I haven't been reading much of anyone's posts. I just haven't been in a mood to do much of that either. Not sure I will do much of that for the time being...we'll see how I feel later. Not much has been going on here except that the weather is warmer and the school year is almost done. Eli has only 11 days of school left I think, and three of those are "fun" days - one a field trip, one they are going to the movies, and another is a "carnival". They finished up their ISATS - major tests on math, reading, science, etc.. so the rest of the year is reviewing what they learned and the fun stuff. Eli did get a "Bears Berry Best" award and I will share a photo of that here. Can't believe he'll be done with elementary school when this month is over. In other news -- there is not much to share. If there is something you'd like to know specifically feel free to ask.

I bet the last few years have gone really quickly. How many years elementary school do the kids in America get. Here it is 7

Well I think it is more to do with he doesn't act up at school because he's too shy lol...he has a girlfriend even though he has never actually said a word to her in person (well till just this past Thursday).

I usually don't have much to write about. That is why I write about a subject I am interested in. Eli's growing up, huh? They tend to do that.

Aww Courtney. He's all grow up and soon will be embarking junior high this fall. I feel you on not sharing much here lately, other than when I have something to share, and/or the energy for it.

Congrats to Eli. What is the Bears Berry Best award? Eli looks so much older in that picture. Time sure is flying. I can't believe school is almost over with.

Greetings to Eli ! Glad to see you being back here. I do remember your Graphic designs. May be you resume them some time. Here, we had temperatures crossing 40 C in between. Yet winds and some rains have now got them in the range of 33 to 35 C, albeit with a higher humidity. I hope that you are doing health wise as well. Looking forward to more posts from your side.
