CyCreek Swimming - JV Team

Delynn is swimming for Cy-Creek HS and loves it. She is on the JV team and is doing well! 95 students are on the team. She's a little "Fishy" Freshman.

She is sporting her team t-shirt below.

First race of the season for her she took 1st in her heat everytime. GO Dee!

Change is Good. right??? Of course.

I begin a new job on Monday and have already been welcomed by this company. What an answer to my prayers. My job was getting really slow and unchallenged so it was time to Step it Up a notch. I was presented with an opportunity and I met with the key people and gathered information and figured if I was the one ...it would come with prayer. and it did.

I couldn't be happier...Mary is testing for her red tab (2 more after this and we test for black belt Sept. 2011) this weekend. She is prepared and excited. She has really really improved. and overcome some bullying this year. She is so tender hearted.

Red Tab on Blue Belt - Oct. 16th
Red Belt - November or Dec.
Black Tab on Red Belt - March 2011 You can only test for this at a black belt testing! It's intense!!!
Black Belt - September 2011


Delynn is swimming for the high school and her first invitational is Oct. 23rd. More pictures to follow.

My kitchen floor is finished. Now we have some finishing touches to do but it's all good.

Changes....changes everywhere !!

After 8 1/2 years I am leaving Landmark Graphics / Halliburton for a new offer I couldn't pass up. I am excited for the opportunity to return to Customer Service and to work with the people that I am going to be working with. YEAH me and No it wasn't just about the money !!!

Delynn wants to start driving with her learners permit....Not looking forward to that yet. She took a radical approach to her classes and had a medicine / weight issue and now is struggling in two classes but she has handled it maturely and is rethinking her schedule. She is also SWIMMING every day but thursday's and sunday's. GO CY-Creek !

Mary is training and still on the road for her Black tab testing in March of 2011. She went this past weekend to cheer on her friends. Haley testing for black belt, one 4" board didn't break...so gave her probation till march 2011. Morgan tested for black tab and got it !!! Eleana was testing for 2nd degree black belt and didn't get it...she had trouble with her power break. all 3 girls did great and Mary knows what is expected of her in march. I sat with her for 4 1/2 hours watching her friends. We love our Taekwondo Family !!!

Webb is working for coke and trying to decide what should be our next home improvement. I told him NOTHING for a while.

I can't handle it. I need the kitchen done by the end of October.

That's it for now.

It's Monday....

Mary is preparing for next belt test in Taekwondo...Sat. Sept.18

De'lynn is working REALLY hard swimming on the swim team for Cy-Creek High School.

Webb & I are the Dad & Mom Taxi Service....I use to laugh at my sisters for never being at home...Now I know ...WHY I am always in the car.

If I am going to live in my car...It needs to be bigger! Just kidding....not yet! I am shopping though for something better...Delynn doesn't really fit in back seat ...she is taller than me. She gets to drive next year...YAHOO....If we let her.

August 23rd...It's a DAY of firsts...

De'Lynn's first day of early morning Seminary & Freshman year at High School. She was so excited to go... I hope that lasts.
Mary Ashley's first day of 5th Grade at Matzke Elementary. She has gone there since Kindergarten.
I am a blessed mom...Both of my girls love LOVE to learn something new. They love to have dinner together as a family and both love their individual time with me and dad.
They are well liked and have many friends, church friends, GS friends, Taekwondo friends, swimming friends, etc...
They have separate interests that make them both very different !!

I love them so much for taking the next first step in their lives.

Diet Coke FREE !!! For a WHOLE month.

This has been very very difficult...I know it's better for me but it is hard to break any addiction. I feel a whole lot better without it.
I do have to admit it was difficult to get up and going in the morning...some mornings.

Mary goes for Gold...just kidding BLUE !!

Mary is testing saturday am for her Blue Belt in Taekwondo...she has done so well ! She loves it and it has been really really good for her. I totally recommend this studio DOJO. Eldridge and Louetta. Mr. Howard is amazing with his students...right now I think he is teaching her PATIENCE !!! She has one move out of 38 movements that hasn't been right but he is teaching her persistence too.
Keep your fingers crossed !

Love Mary's #1 Fan,

MOM

Update and Video to follow after Saturday....
