My time with Elvis


Last night I took Tracen to multicultural night at his school, which is actually right up my alley of things I love.  Although he was trying to ditch me for most of it, he just wanted to be with his friends, he did pay me just enough attention to want me to go on a second date hahaha.  

A group of students from a local high school was there and performed some songs and dances from other latin countries and as we were leaving Tracen was talking about how much he enjoyed all of it. We saw the group of high schoolers getting into the big van they came in, and I said, "you should tell them".  And with confidence, he walked right up to them and told them that they did such a good job. Man, I wish I had the confidence of this boy. 

We were listening to Christmas music driving to THREE difference grocery stores to find what I needed, and we both sang along and were laughing.  His favorite song, "Last Christmas" came on and he told me, "When it isn't christmas I feel like I can't remember the words to this song, but then at Christmas time and I hear it and its like BAM, I know them all".

He told me about how he wants to be a biotechnologist along with all the other things he has said he wants to be.  He wants to be able to help the world and find cures for sicknesses.  He wants to do experiments, but was most excited about then seeing what the results are.  But he still wants to play basketball and be a golf pro. 

Joy to the world then came on (by Mariah Carey) and he sweetly said, "Mom, this song makes me so excited for the second coming, especially with Mariah singing it.  Do you think she is a Christian?"



And this whole night is the perfect summary of Tracen.  Always wanting to be involved, loving his time with other people, marveling and appreciating the talents of others, rocking out to music of all genres, and sharing his sweet testimony.

Kwasney crew comes to visit

We had a blast with the Kwasney’s when they came to visit.  We celebrated Reiko turning 3 and I have been so sad ever since they left.  It is always more fun to do life with family.  Once again I am too lazy to put these pictures in order, but I want them in one place.  Also pictured is the best Jonas brothers shirt ever that has John Stamos wearing a shirt with them on it.   Thnx jme.

Thanksgiving- Canada style


A mish mash of photos.  A bunch of things I am grateful for. 

Not pictured is Luke.  But surely one of the things I am most grateful for.  And for Jesus Christ, because, ya know, Jesus.
