Gettin' started

Well here goes, I'll start with an intro. My goal is to update everyone within the few moments I find in my busy day.
I am taking a semester course in a three week time period so I can graduate a semester early. There's lots of homework every night. Then there are the kids' activities that keep me busy, not to mention church callings...
Pat, my oldest is in college, majoring in Athletic Training. I think he is a Sophmore. He has been on the university's swim team since he started college. He was a 3 sport athlete in high school and managed to enroll in 3 Phy Ed. classes his Senior year, as well lifeguarding each summer.
Stuart is a Senior and plans to go to Courdon Bleu culinary school after his mission to Japan. I am really proud of the way he has buckled down this year in school. He has also become quite the man around the house (car). It was a joy to see him exercise the priesthood and ordain Nathan last September.
Stephanie still loves school and is doing very well. Although she is finding the social life more exciting than the academics right now. She has been practicing her interior design skills in her bedroom. Everytime I peek in (that's all I am allowed), she has different things attatched to the walls.
Nathan is doing well in school. He has been put in two more-challanging classes and is getting the challange he needs. He still comes to sit on my lap once in a while (but never when he has company over), which I totally enjoy. I saw him reading Harry Potter again the other day. I think it is the 20th time for him.
Time's up.

SWAT Team

The SWAT Team from the local PD did some training in the house down the street. All the officers lined up behind the first guy who was holding a sheild, and they all marched to the house and "raided" it. There was a picture of a very buff sweaty guy with a big rifle just inside the door of the SWAT van.
