Update on the Family

Connor-
Connor is doing VERY well in school he is above avergage in the DIBBLES which is a program on testing children on how fast they can read numbers, letters, words, so on and so forth. He had pictures done a couple weeks ago so we will be sure to send them on to those that are afar.

Colton-
Where do I start? Gosh he is asking questions about everything. Keeping busy at daycare learning lots. He also just had pictures done too...

both boys are into Iron Man the movie...

For Halloween I think Connor is going to be Ben 10 and Colton will be Black Spiderman

Amanda---
I have started a new job with state of SD in Department of Social Services. I started on July 1st and just had my 3 month review and it was great! Also got an email from a Social Worker saying I am really good at what I am doing and SO FAST! Which made me feel AWESOME because I really wasn't sure how I was doing, and unsure if I was getting things done fast enough...just what I needed! Scrapbooking has come to a hault because I feel I get more done when I am with my friends Megan and Tammy...not sure why though. I am still active with the Keystone Club (teen club) at Boys & Girls Club..those that know me I can not quit being around kids cold turkey! I love being around them and the things that they want to do to CHANGE THE WORLD is AWESOME! We are appling for the next level up which is 1 level from the most top spot! So YEEAAA for us! National Conference is in April and in Atlanta, GA so I hope I get to go!!

Casey---
Still working at the prison...looking for something else as always...he is waiting to hear back from the Federal Firefighters in Ft. Pierre...and also Hughes County Jail, they are putting up a new facility for juvinals. Keeping busy with other things as well, helping Shayne or his friend Merlin with different things.
