i am alive

Yes i am alive. I haven't given up on blogging. Unfortunately, our lives are just a little crazy sometimes. I was sick most of December and busy with Christmas and planning Steve's surprise 40th. What are we up to now. Well the usual. Ryley is in hockey playoffs right now. His team hasn't faired very well this year, which means much action for Ryley as a goalie. We have lost the first round of playoffs which means that we go to the consolation round. We may have a better chance there anyhow. Shyla is almost done her competitive rountines. She is doing four this year: tap group (a funky version of old macdonald), jazz goup (the best years from shrek), acro duet (we are siamese by hillary and hallie duff) and her first solo. It is jazz and done to Shake ya tailfeather by cheetah girls. It is really good. She is going to use it at the talent show for school. Shyla's birthday is coming up and I cannot believe that she is turning 8. Wow time flies.
