Good News Minute

I thought I'd take a minute to point out all the good things that have happened in our family in the past week. It's always good to focus on the positive, right??!!

Jordan got an "A" on his science test. The first thing we asked when we saw the score "was this an open-book test?" (I know that you're thinking we're horrible parents with so little faith, but if you only knew our battles with school work.....) To our surprise it was not open-book. It was a hard unit, with classifications and what not. SO, I review the test with Jordan to see if he really knew it, once again he blew me away with the knowledge he has soaked up. Hooray for Jordan!! He must really want to go to California next summer, little does he know we are going anyways because his cousin is getting baptized. That's our little secret for now, because we want him to continue to work hard. And apparently he needs a carrot dangling in front of him to do so.

Chloe won her soccer game. Her team is currently undefeated. And the coach is impressed with how much she has improved and even told Matt this!! Chloe's grandpa even made it to the game to cheer her on.

We found out last night that my cousin (the oldest "T" girl) and her husband are going to have a baby!! She is due in April and they are moving back in with her parents soon, while he finishes school and they can save for a house. Chloe & Jordan are happy about this because they'll be close by. We haven't seen much of them since she got married a year or so ago. We are glad they stopped by to share their news!

The best news of all, only 11 more days until we leave for St. George!!! Can't wait!
