Just the beginning...

Welcome To THE SHAWS Blog!

I thought that we should put this together so that you all can see how the family is growing!

Our time in Mountaintop has almost reached the 4 year mark!

I cannot believe that we have lived here so long. All is well and life is progressing ever so quickly.

Ehryn is going into the 4th grade. She is working hard in gymnastics. Her goal this summer is to obtain more skills to reach the non-compulsory level. She had a very successful season last year having earned 3rd place on vault in the PA State Championship meet. Go Ehryn!

She was promoted to the JUNIOR level in Girl Scouting and is accompanied by her girlfiends that have been part of her troop since kindergarten. I am the leader it how fast time goes in addition to seeing how this young ladies have grown and become their own people. It is pretty cool!

Allen - ALBY completed kindergarten this year. He too has been promoted to the next grade. We are working on reading and writing this summer. He tends to favor playing outdoors and creating some sort of contraption to play in or on! I can't say as I blame him!

Allen and I are working on this house - STILL STILL STILL. We are redoing the downstairs bathroom. It has new tile and bead board on the walls. I made Allen paint it a dark brown color. He refers to it as pudding - I say POOP. Oh well, looks good though. It is an appropriate color for a bathroom. No pun.

He is still with Cinram. I am still searching for the next win-win opportunity! Right. I have been doing some small catering jobs. I worked part-time this spring. Now that the kids are in school, it is good to be able to bring in some dough!

So this is the beginning. I will try to keep it updated.

See everyone at Linny's and Andres wedding!
