Whats new

Here's what is new around the Lesher household. Mara graduated from kindergarten May 30th. Our final year at WPMS, it was a sad day. More so for Tim and I than it was for the girls... Brynn finished school on June 6. Both girls will be going to the same school next year (yea!!) Brynn into 3rd grade and Mara into 1st. Brynn tested for the gifted program at school and made it with flying colors. She will now be in both an advanced reading program (CAP) and the gifted program (GOAL). Lucky kid, she will be missing a lot of regular class time.

The girls just graduated to their next belts in TKD. Brynn is now a blue belt and Mara a camo/black belt. This session they are learning to use the Jahne Bong (Big stick). Mara's is 4 ft tall, Brynn's 5 ft. I can definitely see Brynn coming home with a black eye one night after trying to spin it around.

Brynn has also been accepted into acting and modeling school. She has a 4 hour class once a month for acting and 4 hours for modeling. In September, October and November she will be auditioning in front of casting directors both local as well as countrywide. The final audition will be with 20th Century Fox and Dreamworks. I am very excited, Brynn wavers back and forth. She loved the modeling class, but the acting was a little boring she said.

Tim is working like crazy. Lately we have been seeing him only on the weekends. He leaves in the morning and doesnt get home until after midnight most days. The girls miss him, I miss him, but things are going well at the company, so I dont complain too much.

I am back to working only weekends so I can be home with the girls during the week. We have been doing a lot of swimming and going to the parks. The girls went to Bible School last week for three days. This week the girls FINALLY learned to ride their bikes without training wheels. Brynn does very well, Mara still needs some help, but she is able to ride after a push or two. Now, if she could only learn to use the brakes instead of her feet...

Sunday is Mara's birthday. We will be at memmy's house for a little party so I should have some pictures to post soon.
