It's been a while since I posted a blog...Life has been busy...But isn't it for most..
The girls are doing well...Jillian has really shown growth in school and at home...She is excelling in Karate and just enjoying herself. She even has a line in our Church Easter show through choir.
Elizabeth, honor roll again. She has met and exceeded all expectations for her grade and age. Her reading is unbelievable and she has nice handle on multiplication, self-taught. She'll be ahead of the game when she is actually learning it in school. She's my eager beaver with academics. She still does dance, choir and Karate...Loves it all. In a few weeks, she is audition for Sound of Music through StageDoor, the same production company that did Oklahoma.
Jillian will attend Summer Camp through LVC preschool, like she has over the last couple of years. Elizabeth will be attending a Summer Camp program over here at Sadie Park, through the Hillsborough County Park Commission. Price was awesome and it will keep her busy rather than looking for those ridiculously high price weekly camps.
George is doing well and is now a Webelos Den Leader in the Cub Scout. No, we have no young boys, but he was involved in Scouts when his boys were that age and he loved doing it so much that he now wants to continue. He was actually a Scoutmaster, one of those big shots, so good for him. He still is cooking, but just for us...LOL! Lucky me!!!
Me, well not much new...
As I posted on Facebook, we had to deal with a pipe leak that caused minor damage to one kitchen cabinet, resulting in a complete set of new cabinets we just ordered yesterday. The final result is new cabinets, drywall in kitchen area and family room area, two rooms completely painted and a concrete patch for our lanai with our lanai being painted. Unfortunately the only thing we really wanted replaced was the one cabinet and the carpet, but the carpet was denied due to the laminant on the backing being in tack. The cabinet's, even 5 yrs old, start to change color and for oak, become slightly darker. Matching cabinet's is not a simple task and State Farm has agreed to replace them all. We hired a contractor through State Farm instead of receiving a check and us hiring someone. So its nice to know that the insurane company is handling everything.
I am truly looking forward to Spring Break and the week's vacation I took. We have plans including several playdates and Disney! Who can pass on Disney!!!
Hope all that reads my blog is happy and healthy and to all that are having Spring Break, have a happy one! For my northern buddies, your's is still to come....

Happy Spring Break Debbie!! Have a great week! Sounds like you have lots of fun things planned!
My girls used to go to the Brandon Rec for summer camp and sometimes after-school. I noticed that they raised the price for summer camp to $300 the last time I was up there, but that's still cheaper than anywhere else and they had to raise the rates since the county funds are so limited now. At least they haven't closed the programs down altogether, right? Just be forewarmed that Elizabeth with probably come home very dirty everyday.
Whenever I used to pick her up from preschool or now Jillian from preschool, the dirtier they were, the more I knew they had a good day!! LOL!
