Happy Birthday Carter!
I hope to have pictures for everyone of Carter's birthday party soon. Our computer is still at the doc. We had a fun time celebrating Carter's 7th birthday at Wakanda Water Park in Menomonie. I am hoping to post the pictures this week. You can see some pics of our fun on Jamie & Shana's family blog if you click on my 'fun family link'. Hope everyone is doing well!

~~~Just wanted to let everyone know that our computer has been at the doctor getting some repairs done. The backlight went out on the screen. Thank you to family and friends who have offered the use of your computers during this time. I would not have made it through graduate school without them. Things have changed since I have been on campus and each class now requires daily on-line work. Students also have to print out their own copies of everything needed for the class. This eliminates the University having to make so many copies......and, yet, the tuition keeps going up! :-)
~~~I am beginning the initial steps to my thesis in which I have one year to complete. I have selected an advisor to work with and my proposal is due to him in October. My hypotheses is going to look at the correlation between children with anxiety and family stress. My data analysis will be other families that have children with anxiety, with hopes to have 30-50 families return my survey (fingers crossed!!) Please pray for us as this will be an overwhelming amount of work to do.
~~~Carter just finished up two weeks of swimming lessons. Autumn was also in his group. He has become a stronger swimmer this year and I hope it continues. To get to the next level, he has to work on keeping his butt/belly up when doing the back stroke. I have some pictures of Carter & Autumn at their swimming lessons that I will post once our computer is up and running. Grandma Deb & Grandpa Ken came to watch Carter at his lessons one evening. He was very excited that he had an audience! Thank you Grandma & Grandpa!! It was great to see Grandma Deb back up and moving.
~~Have a great week everyone! I hope to have some pictures for you soon!
