Halloween 2009

It was a fun year! Jenna was a bumblebee. Sarah was an Indian. Mark was James Bond.

Love is in the air! My Sarah loves animals! Here is a pic from last fall.
I spend most of my internet time on Facebook... so my blogspot is suffering. Please join Facebook and invite Genia Spencer to be your friend so we can keep up to date and have some laughs!

October 2008

I created a Facebook page because it's much easier for me to keep it updated than my blogspot, so please check it out!

August Rush

We've been traveling a lot and incredibly busy since October 2007 therefore I never put time into this webpage, however, I've been inspired by my 20th high school reunion conversations with friends and other bloggers on this website to carry on with this blogspot. I've titled this blog "August Rush" because my kids started school this week. We had lots of fun things to cram in before school started like water skiing, Biking, going to Lagoon, water parks and late nights with friends. We also started WFFL football. Mark, my 11 year old, is starting wide receiver, safety and kicker. Last year, he led the team in touchdowns and interceptions. He's already off to a great start scoring the first touchdown of the season and a few more following that and he's only played two games! I was asked to be the team mom this year and my husband, Danny is in charge of coaching special teams. Being the team mom means I'm in charge of getting the parents to fulfill the many volunteer positions and recruiting younger siblings to be our spirit squad. I bought shiny metallic poms poms for the girls and made posters for the boys at the last game and the little cheerleaders were so awesome! They gave it their all cheering and dancing for almost two solid hours and they were so cute! It's been heaps of work but I love it! I'm also a cub scout leader so I need to get that going strong again since summer slowed us down because of traveling. It's after 4am so I better wrap this up!

Life in the family fast lane!

Wow! This week has been exciting! My son's football team has made it to the playoffs and we have our first competitive basketball game of the Fall season tonight! We also just got family portraits taken yesterday outside our home in a straw field. It was stress trying to pull everything together at the last minute since the decision to take the photos only happened hours before the shoot!! Kellee Smith is a superb photographer, so we should have some great shots even though my son shot a rubber band at his sister's eye immediately before the shoot which made her hysterical and looking pretty bloodshot. Thank goodness for Visine! Then he got a good reprimand from Dad which put him in a great mood for photos. NOT! Also, I ended up getting my hair styled at a salon down the street to save time. However, my hair-do looks like my mom's back in the 1970's!!
It's 2:20am!! Gotta get to bed. I have a visitor coming between 8-9 in the morning with the football practice and the basketball game not ending till 9pm at night! Then we have an hour drive home after that!
Hoping for a fabulously fun and exciting day !! Can't wait for the photos!!
