Rev. Crystal's Full Moon Blessings

Ok, so the kids are back in school. Keith's first year of highschool and Kevin's first year of Jr. High. So far so good. Little glitches along the way but that is to be expected.

Keith is playing JV football for school and we are super excited about that. We went to the scrimage last friday in Vallejo and he did really, really good. We are so proud.

I took some pictures and I will upload them to the site really soon. There is a game this Saturday so I will post how it went.

Robert turned 4 on Tuesday!!! I can't believe it!! And Keith's birthday is Sunday the 11th and he turns 14!! Everyone is growing so fast and it is exciting and scary at the same time. I want so much for my kids and of course I am terrified that they will get caught up in the streets and bad choices. I don't think I have ever prayed so much in my life.

And last but not least, for the first time ever............................. Robbie pooped on the potty last night!!! And then an hour later he pee peed! Hopefully we are turning a corner with this diaper thing!

Blessings are a coming,
Crystal

Well............. Jody, Christine and I are going to Salem, MA for vacation the first week of October. We decided to do something nice for ourselves and go across the united states to check out all the cool exhibits, tours and shops, in addition to the October Fest they have every year. The Harry Potter convention is the same weekend.

So I am super excited and scared at the same time. I haven't been on a plane since jr high school, yikes! And this will be the first time I have left my baby behind since he has been born, my mom since she has been disabled and the whole family for that matter. I don't think I have gone on vacation without them since the beginning................. over nine years. So I am super, duper nervous and feeling guilty. But I will be fine and I will enjoy it to the fullest!

Only one month away............................

Sorry to post so late. I decided that since so many things have happened since I last posted, I would post a series of entries to update everything, instead of having one super long post.

I went on vacation with the family, Christine and Jody to reno. We rented a really nice three bedroom house in the residential area of reno. It had a nice covered sun deck and a hot tub.

We relaxed a lot and of course went to the casinos several times. Robert loved Circus Circus and keeps asking to go back to this day, LOL. We went to several buffets and ate till I almost popped at the Peppermill. They had such good food!

We went to the mall out there and did school shopping and had the opportunity to go and check out the local reno pagan shop.

We had a grubbin BBQ and ate way too good. It was a damn near perfect trip and even got to stop in Truckee to go to the Sweets Candy shop!

What a good way to enjoy some time off!
