Life Updates

Let's see what's happened this past week!

First, Russell spent some time talking to an advisor about school.  After taking into consideration their advice, and what's best for our family....he's going to take 6 quarters to get his pre-reqs done instead of rushing through them in 3.  The advisor said that she thought he should slow down the class load to ensure that he gets the best grades possible...which is very sound advice.  

For our family, this means that we have about two years to get all our ducks in a row instead of under a year, which is a relief for me! Now, I'm very confident that we can make it all happen.  So right now, Russell is just taking 1 class...but come January he'll be enrolled in 2 classes each quarter until he's done!  Check back for updates on how that's going!

Last weekend we took the kids roller skating...Hallie loved it...Nathan not so much.  He's just not quite big enough....look for a post later with pictures!  

Russell and I went and saw Couples Retreat last weekend...if you haven't seen it...wait and rent it.  I was kinda disappointed in it...and now that it's been out I'm learning that I'm not the only one.

Other then that....my mom moved, Mel & Ashley are moving back to Orting, Dad's house is FULL...seriously FULL....and the kids here are doing great!
