We are back!

Ok I'm going to try this again!

We are all doing well. The boys are in school and Elise is enjoying pre-school very very much.

The boys did swim team this summer and are still doing it. I love to watch them swim. Their strokes are beautiful. They look like they are gliding through the water. We went to Alaska with my family. It was so beautiful. Everyone shoud go there.

Elise has fallen in love with the musical Wicked. My mom took us all to see it a week ago. I loved watching Elise. She was on the edge of her seat with the binoculars about 75% of the time. She did not move at all through the whole musical. Elphaba and Glinda are real to her very very real just like the princesses at Disneyland are real. She still sings the songs and stands on the kitchen counter while she sings Defying Gravity. She was also Elphaba for Halloween. She is obsessed. We spent a wonderful Thanksgiving with my mom,who now lives in Lodi, CA, about 40 miles south of Sacramento. Now we are here getting ready for Christian's baptism. I still can't believe he is 8. My baby boy!!

I'm not very good at this!!

I knew this would get some getting use to. It's amazing how fast time goes by. Elise is now in ballet and tap and loves it. Her favorite place is Disneyland. "That's where the real Ariel lives."
Christian is playing baseball and is enjoying it. Parker wishes he did baseball but didn't want to do it really because he doesn't like to catch the ball. Ryan (who's Ryan) is in busy season. I'm having a good time driving everywhere!! And putting the kids down by myself! (I really don't like bedtime. The outcome is wonderful once I have been successful.)

We are now BLOGGERS!!!!

I have been told that it is about time for the Evans 5 to have a blog. I love reading others. So here we go. Our life is not that exciting. So, I hope you still enjoy looking us up.

In a wrap. Ryan and I just celebrated 10 years together. I can't believe how fast time goes by. I can't believe the experiences we have gone through in 10 years. We have been blessed with 3 beautiful and healthy children. We spent 2 years and 9 months living Germany. We love being back in Irvine, CA. I really think we are spoiled here. The weather cannot be beaten!!

Parker (8) is in 3rd grade and loving it. Christian (7) is in 1st grade and says he already knows everything. And Elise (3) is the princess. She has started ballet and tap. She loves it. Her friends are very important to her. And we have a kitten who still does not have a name!! But he is a fun addition to our family.

I hope you all are well.
