The E Journey: What's New?

Isn't that always the question we ask people?
Well, here is the answer from our house!
Sunday: with a pastor in the house, its always a bit crazy but we try to spend the afternoon/evening together - baking, watching a movie, getting ready for school, etc. Last week we all went out and practiced baseball. Jessica has decided she wants to be a pitcher. If we stay in MI, that means she has to give up soccer, which I don't think she'll mind too much
Monday: 3 kids have soccer practice
Tuesday: 2 kids have piano lessons, 3 kids have soccer practice, 1 kid has baseball practice, and I try to get a grocery run in between there
Wednesday: 4 kids have church
Thursday: 3 kids have soccer practice
Friday: Friends from MN visit, Matt and I went to symphony last week, this week Anika had a lock in at the high school
Saturday: Friends from Grand Rapids came over for supper and games; Matt has been reffing soccer games and last week the kids and I actually cleaned the house for once after 3 soccer games and 3 soccer goals by 3 separate Eenigenburg children; This week we went to the musical 'Anne of Green Gables' with Aunt Kathy after 4 soccer games of course.

We have been dog sitting a red lab for friends; Anika went to an overnight 6th grade class trip at a YMCA camp a bit north of here; The van has been in to have something fixed every month for the last 7 months - this month we got a new transmission - its still leaking and the speedometer is off - so back it goes this week; This week was the last night of church on Wednesdays and Jessica and Brandon went to Craigs Cruisers (mini golf, go -carts, arcade, etc) and Anika had a chocolate slip and slide.

So, that sums up the last few weeks. The weather has been interesting to say the least. Many of those practices have been canceled due to constant rain/snow we have been receiving. We have not experienced any flooding but anyone around here that lives near a river will tell you otherwise. The lakes have not come up much, if at all, so we are waiting for these swelling rivers to start filling up the lakes - who knows! But the last few days have been GORGEOUS!

We'll see what adventures May holds!
