The Blake Kids: A Quick Update on the Kids!

Well, Dustin is loving school!! He is such "The Big Man" as he walks down the hallway to his room by himself, as he comes into the library in the afternoons by himself and as he does his homework by himself! He has grown so much over these past few weeks...reading so much better, writing so much better, and just blowing us away with what he learns throughout the day!!

Shelby is still loving dance!! Every time we pass the building, she says, "I go dance." We say, "Not today, but you will on Wednesday!" She wants to Dance all the time!! I am thrilled that she is wanting to do that and really likes going. All the girls in the class are getting so much better and doing great!

Last Saturday, we had Dustin's 5th Birthday Party at the Skating Rink. It was truly a BLAST!!! I think the adults had just as much fun as the kids!! I know I did. It was a great place just to relax and let the kids play and even the parents could play too if they wanted too!! Dustin told us when it was over that it was a Cool Party and he wanted to do it again next year!! It might be worth it, to do it again!!!

On his actual birthday, September 1st, We surprised him with his trampoline! And they both have loved playing on it! Let me just say that was a birthday present worth the money!! Corey built steps for them today and now they can go and jump whenever they want and don't have to have help getting in or out...it is so nice!!
