Alexandra graduated from 7th, AJ from 4th, and Austin from Kinder.  Alexandra was elected captain and head cheerleader at her school's cheerleading team, and she has become officially a teenager.  It is just playing amazing to see her mature into a young lady.  Choir singing and dance continue to be her number one passions and she finished 5th among 800 singers at the Texas State Regional.  Quite an honor for her and us.  She also continues to swim and to be active in girl scouts.  AJ loved his first football season in 2006 so much that he decided to drop baseball and play spring football.  He played quarterback and linebacker.  As quarterback, he had a great highlight in a game where he threw a 60 yard pass-run touch down (20 yard pass).  I can almost see it every minute that I close my eyes, like it just happened.  WOW!!!  He has now played two seasons as quarterback (16 games).  AJ also continues to play basketball, to swim, and to be active in cub scouts.  He is working toward his Arrow of Light.  Austin played baseball in the spring.  He is also in cub scouts and starting to figure life out.  He is very organized.

The highlight vacation was our summer in California.  We got to see everyone after two long years and drive up and down to see all landmarks.  We saw and hanged out with uncle Don, aunt Pam, Whitney, Tyler, Julia, uncle Mike, aunt Jill, Christopher, Christina, Josie, Genio, and many more cousins and friends. It was truly great and loved every minute of it.
