Well, it has officially happened...we are now the new leaders of the wolves in the scouting program! It was inevitable, wasn't it? Today was our first meeting - yikes! What a group of spirited young boys! But, we're ready for 'em. Today just happened to be cookie baking day and the sugar really helped us out! (just kidding!)
Life is never dull here. Today, for example-here is our agenda...
Awakened, showered and the marathon began. The little boys room got completely cleaned top to bottom-under the bed, closet-the whole enchilada...lunch, then to 7 dozen cookies...then pack meeting...then meeting with some ladies in the area...then, in the door-out the door to pick up food for dinner - had to run out to the market to find something REALLY fast-cooked dinner,baths and showers, baby to bed, clean kitchen other kids to bed (intermingle 8 loads of laundry) .... yada, yada, yada...like I said-NEVER DULL...but what a great opportunity to be able to head up scouts and be involved in our boys' lives.
Getting settled into our life is really agreeing with me.

I'm back!
Well, it has been quite some time since I posted any information...life has been moving at warp speed in the Hawkes' nest. Soccer season nearly was the death of me...but it is now closed. Next, baseball!
We are continuing to grow and change, Carissa is now trying to walk! How quickly it goes. She is now our full-time vacuum cleaner - what a challenge that is! However, she still lights up the room with her abundant smiles!
Springtime here is phenomenal! What beauty, what fresh air! I can't believe how pretty everything looks - and GREEN! We just got our garden in and it is enormous. Last year it did so well, we decided to expand and BOY, did we expand. Pretty close to half an acre of garden - wahoo!
Robert is in deliberation in regards to some pretty big business deals right now...all of a sudden, he is IN DEMAND! Let's hope things work out and he can do what he has always dreamed of doing. What a blessing that would be for us all! (A little prayer could never hurt!)
I'll keep ya posted!
