It informed us that since Josh scored so high on his TCAP (95% or above in certain categories )(standardized test last year) that he has been invited (by Duke University/Talent) to take the ACT/SAT this year. While it costs $73.00 to take the test, he is interested in doing so and it will give him valuable practice and he will get lots of info he will need to choose a school, apply etc.
We are really proud of him.
On a sad (well more just disappointing) note, Josh did not make the basketball team this year. His coach said that he was a wonderful kid yada yada, but for whatever reason, still chose to cut him. He is disappointed but since this week is fall break, his mind has been on playing with friends-really anything NOT school related!
Kate and Heston are doing good-Kate goes camping this weekend with the girl scouts (like real camping...roughing it camping) Heston has 2 more weeks of football -- then we are done! We are looking forward to a little break with no kids in sports...a much needed break for mom and dad. :)
The next few weeks we will be busy preparing for a sunday school "social" party at our house- a bon fire, smores, hotdogs etc for our fellow class mates and their families. I love getting the house clean and looking its best and this gives me some motovation to tackle the to-do list!
