Welcome to the land of tall pine trees and lush greenery. RAchel is helping me to figure out the process of creating a blog to keep everyone abreast of the activities of the North West Escotos. If you think our annual Christmas letter is annoying- now you get my ramblings ad nauseum!!
Chuck had knee surgery a week ago, and is still gimping around on crutches. He had a torn meniscus, and loose cartilage floating around in there, so an arthroscopy was needed. It has been fun to have him home, of course, he was drugged....
I only have 8 more days of teaching seminary for the year, both the students and I are getting antsy for it to be over (as much as we love it!!!). But my new dog-walking business should keep me busy through the summer. I just got my business license last week, so all I need now are some clients. I pick up dogs from home weekdays around noon and take them all to a local park for an off-leash doggy playgroup.
Becca's senior year in high school is winding down. Senior Project is all completed except for her oral boards on June 6. Graduation is June 15. She will be heading off to BYU Idaho in January. She has already secured herself a great summer job as a full time nanny. She even has the use of the family's car. Which worked out perfectly because I will need the truck she has been driving during the school year to haul my dogs. Last week was senior prom, and senior ditch day is coming up soon....ahhh the memories.
Jared has become an avid tennis player, and has made the tennis team at Robinswood. He just completed building a model solar car and won the first heat of the solar car race at school against 7 competitors. The next heat didn't go so well- his car ran into something and got disqualified. He is now about 1/2 inch taller than I am. Which leaves me the shortest person in the family.
Rachel and Nate are doing great in Rexburg Idaho. Both are going to school and working. The latest addition to their family is a tomato plant she bought in a campus plant sale. She is very excited to have her own little plant to care for (although she really wanted a puppy....)
My chit chat just dried up, so I guess I am done.
Love to all..
