{MId-February Update}

So it's been not quite a month since my last post.  I'd say I'm improving my record!  :)

As always, things have been busy in the Meek household for the past month.  Since my birthday post, Jon has joined me at 37, Micci has turned 11, Bethany has been registered for high school, and Gabe has competed in his first indoor track meet.  I completed OULA training at the end of January, and have been working hard to get my choreography and leading skills ready for teaching practice classes.  It's so fun, though!!!

It's hard to believe that tomorrow marks the 19th anniversary of when Jon and I officially started dating.  Considering that we were 18 when we started dating, this means that we've now been together for more than half of our lives.  It's a weird feeling, but I wouldn't trade it for anything. 

Also difficult to believe is that Bethany is now registered for high school and that Gabe will be turning 16 in just a couple of weeks.  I feel like my babies are growing up so quickly.  I'm so thankful that both of them are still very much homebodies and love to just spend time with us.  My kiddos amaze me on a daily basis. 

Worship team rehearsal has returned to our home for the time being, and I am loving it.  Jon and I used to hold different band rehearsals in our living room, and it just feels right.  We are building real friendships and family-ships with our team, and playing, laughing, singing, and eating together is what it's all about.  I. LOVE. THESE. PEOPLE.

I'm also taking a functional fitness class through my work, and that's been super fun to get to know some of my co-workers outside of the school day a little bit.  I've had a few days when I've had some sore legs and arms, though!!  It's all good, and I just remind myself that it makes me a better runner and OULAgin.  Speaking of OULA....  I'm pretty much thinking there's going to be another post about how that's going pretty soon. 

So there's a little update...  Til next time!!
