Here we go again

Hi! Somehow my old blog disappeared..I mean I can see it but I cannot access it so I am starting over! If you want to see our life up till last fall you can go to pbkleis.blogspot.com but since I am not a computer whiz we will pick it up from here. So.......what is new? Wow I guess so much has happened since last fall. The holidays, a long, cold winter....etc. The girls have been busy with homeschool. Amanda also plays the violin now and is going to play soccer this spring. She just got a job babysitting 3 days a week. Sarah plays the cello and basketball season is winding down for her.
We have had the pleassure of spending more time with Drew lately and are missing Jeremy very much. The girls and Phil got to spend some time with Steven last weekend and Phil got to meet his girlfriend Dani.

For Christmas Jeremy sent us all nice gifts from Indonesia and amongst them were jaraks, or skirts for the girls. He and some of his friends made a demo dvd to show the girls how to wear them. In turn I sent two of his friends MSU t shirts and since then have been getting to know them a little better. They are sweet people and it is nice to know he has such nice Christian friends there.

I guess that is enough talk...not that too many people read this anyway but now I will follow with some random pics of the last few months. If you stop by to visit please leave a comment and let me know, thanks!


This is one of our game nights. We have them once a month and the youth/college age kids that want to can come over and hang out for a few hours to eat and have fun.
Game night - waiting for the pizza chefs to get the dinner done!

One of Sarah's Basketball Games, her team is doing very well!
