We're still shaking...

I guess we had another sizable aftershock this morning. Once again, I slept through it. It was another busy weekend at the Rinkel household. After spending Saturday morning working around the house we went fishing in the afternoon. We came home with three fish, cleaned them, and then went into town for supper and to do some shopping. Sunday was spent at Sunday school, church, and soccer. After soccer (Valynn and Mason played at the same time on fields next to each other so it wasn't an all day event) we came home and the kids and I went fishing while Mark did homework. We didn't catch anything which was good, otherwise I would have had to clean them. We had a nice supper outside and then it was bedtime.

Rundown of the family
Mark- only has a couple of weeks left of school. He'll get about a month off before summer school starts. His classes are going well. He's itching to get the rest of the garden in.

Chantel- has about 9 days of work lined up through the end of the year. This is on top of the kids' trips and activities.

Valynn- has about a month left of kindergarten. She played goalie yesterday in soccer for a period. She stopped two balls and didn't let any get by her. She has improved the last couple of weeks. She's in her final weeks of dance practice before her recital the beginning of June. She has a field trip to Wildlife and a Spa day for mom coming up at school.

Mason- he is done with school on May 9th. That day he is going on a field trip to the zoo. He didn't do as well in soccer yesterday. He said he was tired and didn't want to get in on the action. He is our farmer/fisherman.

Kyra- she has definitely become a handful. Yesterday in church, half way through the service she loudly stated "all done" and tried to walk out, then threw a fit when I wouldn't let her. She is 20 months today and every bit of the two's. The only good part is that she speaks well enough to get her point across, but she still won't take no for an answer. Her favorite game lately is "Where's the ....?" She will hide something and then ask us where it's at.

We have a busy week ahead of us. Mark has a test tonight. I'm working Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday this week. We have soccer games on Saturday and Sunday.
