"It's about time---AGAIN"

I noticed that it has been quite a while since I last even thought about posting anything on this here blog-- Better late than never right! Here is a run down on what the Reed family has been up to lately: 1) We bought a house!!! And I absolutely love it. We moved to North West Las Vegas and it seems to be a great fit for us. 2) Taven is in the middle of his first year of coach pitch little league base ball and is doing really well. I am going to post a video of him hitting a home run this past Friday. 3) Aspen as always has made the transition to her new school extremely well, she has tons of friends and has me going on playdates at least twice a week! 4) Berkley has become a little girl instead of a toddler- she has full on conversations, and knows what she wants, helps around the house, and keeps me smiling all day long. 5) The girls both started dance in January and have their first recital in June. Aspen is going to be a cowgirl tapping to "Achey Breakey Heart", and Berks is a Mermaid. Too freaking cute!!! 6) I am still working on school in between carpooling back and forth from the kids school, and games, and practices, but I guess this is what life is all about right? 7) Ryan is still really enjoying his job (thank goodness) and can't wait until they move offices this summer so his long commute will be cut in half. 8) All in all we are all doing really good and couldn't ask for anything more. We are really enjoying being closer to family-- we get a lot more visitors here than in Texas- go figure! Thank you everyone for coming out and seeing us we love having you! 9) Thats about it!

More for Lynette!





This one is for you Lynette!!!






I know it has been way way too long since I have written or even thought of writing anything in this here blog, but I guess it is time at least to update on what is going on with the Reed family.

Ryan graduated FINALLY from law school and got a job in Las Vegas so here we are!!
I started school- with Ryan being done we thought that it was time for me to be tortured. I am working on my Elementary Education degree, it should take me two and a half years but I am excited to finally be doing something.

The kids are doing great and love living in Las Vegas because we have a POOL in our apartment complex and have been able to swim most days. My kids have become little fish, and the weather has been nice enough that we were even able to go out tonight.

Ryan is liking his job and got sworn in last week, it is official-- he is a lawyer and we are all so proud of him. We are busy and are loving where we are in life. We miss being around family, but the good thing is that living in Las Vegas we get a lot more visitors.

That is all for now, and hopefully I will post again soon--don't hold your breath!!!

Skittles anyone?

Taven being of school age and interested in all sorts of things decided that he wanted to do a science project to take to school. We attended science night and learned how to make the board and all of that so I said why not. Well yesterday we got the stuff to "Scientifically see what color of skittles has the most per pack" He and Aspen opened the packs and did a good job of recording the numbers. The rest was up to me to put it altogether, I think I worked on the stupid thing for 5 hours before I was finshed. I can already tell that I am going to be the mom that fusses over her kids homework to make sure that it is perfect- I don't want to be, really I don't- but what choice to I have? Anyway he takes it to school tomorrow and for now we have a ton of Skittles to eat! YUMMY!
