Owens Update

The Owens family has just started our second week of Mike working 1st shift. Mike has worked at Amana for 18 years but has never worked anything other than 2nd shift. As many of you know Mike is not a morning person but so far has adjusted rather well! The boys are so thrilled that he is home at night to tuck them in, read them books and to just generally be around! I enjoy it too. He is in charge of making supper on Monday nights because I am at wrestling practice with Payton until 7:00. Payton is doing great in wrestling. He has done a couple of tournaments and will wrestle in Williamsburg this Sunday at their tournament. Payton started swimming at school yesterday. They bus some of the kids to the high school where the pool is at. He absolutely loved that! Cael is really enjoying kindergarten and even read a good portion of a book to me last night! Nate is loving the new puppy that his daycare provider, Connie, has. Nate is full of energy and is repeating pretty much everything that is said. A mixed blessing!! Last night he was saying to Mike the line that Jackie Gleason said in the Honeymooners, "Why I otta!, Too the Moon Alice!!" shaking his fist at Mike the whole time! Hilarious!! I will try to get somewhere to post some pictures of the boys. I haven't figured out how to do that at school yet.
