Well, I've been asked to update (you know who you are) so here goes:
Kelly: She's been playing bas
ketball on the 8th grade team at TCA. They only have about 6 girls actually playing right now, so she's getting to play a lot (which she loves). It's kind of funny to see the 8th grade cheerleaders when they come to the game becuase there are over 20 of them, and there are so few playing basketball :) Kelly visited Legacy last week and she liked it, but she's decided to stay at TCA for high school. TCA is quite a bit larger than LCA and is able to have a much greater selection of courses. Kelly will be going on Dino Dig this summer with some kids from school and one of the science teachers. They travel, and camp, in New Mexico, Colorado, Wyoming and South Dakota. They will see Mt Rushmore and dig for dinosaur bones for two days at a site in Wyoming.
Connor: H
e's still playing a lot of basketball on the varsity team at LCA as a point guard. They are playing really well right now and are set pretty well to get a playoff spot from their district. He thinks he had a "double-double" in last night's game. He had 12 points and may have had 10 rebounds. It was a good game. He is, of course, enjoying having his driver's license. You might say he has a tight leash right now with regard to drving priviliges :) but he is doing much better. Connor's already made a lot of good friends at Legacy and is enjoying hanging out with them. Most of them live in Frisco (where the school is) and since we are in Plano, it is giving him a lot of opportunities to drive. Baseball is right around the corner, and LCA's team looks pretty good. You can keep up with LCA's sport scores on hsgametime.com/dfw. They aren't large enough to be listed as a separate school, but if you go to

Nick: He's having a fun, relaxed senior year. He's excited about going to K-State. He spends most of his time hanging out with his friends and going to TCA basketball games. He is co-leading a bible study for 7th grade boys early on Friday mornings at TCA. He is also participating in a couple of bible studies. One is a group of senior guys. They've been meeting with the same leader since they were in 7th grade. The other one is brand new, it just started last night. Both of them are through K-Life. It looks like Nick will not be going back to camp at Kanukuk Colorado this summer (note to self: cancel reservation) and will be going instead on a RO
AD TRIP with about 5 other seniors up to the north east and culminating in the MLB All-Star game in NYC. It should be a lot of fun. (Cousin Justin, do you have room for 6 guys to sleep on your floor ?! :) Of course, we are also working on convincing Nick that getting a j-o-b would be a good idea!! Nick will be going on the Mexico mission trip again at TCA this year. They are going in March. Hopefully his passport will be back before then!
Bill: He is very busy at work (which is a good thing!) and busy on the K-Life board pulling together this year's fundraising golf-tournament. Bill has a pretty big birthday in a couple of weeks. We haven't quite decided how to celebrate, but I've been sworn to no parties.
Karyn: I am still teaching the Moms 'n Mosa!cs program at church twice a month, and serving in Young Men's Service League (wth Nick) and National Charity League (with Kelly). Of course, I also have my CPA business, which is seasonal in the amount of time required.
I feel like I've just written a Christmas letter! Well, since we didn't send out cards this year, maybe I have :)
