Better Late Than Never I Guess

Well, it has been a while since the blog has been updated. Life gets busy. Here are a few updates in the past year of things that have been going on in the Smith family:

Kevin

Kevin just goes to work and comes home, goes to work and comes home. He is still working for the City of El Paso and still likes his job. He is probably has the least interesting things going out of the family.

Kendra

Kendra has spent a lot of time taking care of the children. She has been involved in the school PTA, church calling, and working now and then helping people organize their things. She really likes to read and loves a minute to herself when she can get one.

Madeleine

Maddy is doing really well in school and is in the gifted and talented program. She received a pretty big recognition for one of the papers that she wrote. She is starting to write in cursive and is getting to be really smart. She also just turned eight and was baptized. There were many family members that came from far away to be with her during her special day. She is finishing up playing soccer and is actually pretty dang good at it.

Geneva



Geneva is now in kindergarten and enjoys school. She is learning how to write, spell, and read. She recently finished a season of playing soccer and scored her first goal yesterday on the final game. It turned out to be the games only goal as well. Her mom and dad got a little emotional for the goal. She was also named the most improved player on her team. She like to draw, write, and play outside.

Alexander

Mr. Alex is a crazy boy. He is obsessed with Legos. Every morning, he goes to his Daddy and the first thing is, "Can I play with Legos?" He loves them so much that he tried to start turning his body into Legos. (He stuck one up his nose and the doctor had to go in and yank it out.) Boys will be boys.

Lucienne

Well Luci went from a wee baby (see last post a year ago to this....

She sure has grown a lot. She is trying to start to walk and can go about four steps before falling over. (I know it is a big thing, but it also was pretty nice when the babies are immobile as well.) She, like the rest of the family, loves Legos and only tries to eat them every once and a while. She is a super happy little one.

Well, hopefully, the blog will be updated more than once a year. We wish everyone the best and hope all is well with you and your family.
