So did ANYONE look at the monk video? Not one comment in two weeks...so sad. (It really was quite funny--but then, maybe I'm just a bit on the weird side?) (And, I DON'T want comments about that!)
So the last few weeks have been pretty normal at the Nisbet house....busy and at times chaotic. Scott had his 14th birthday on March 2. Tonight he'll be attending his first church dance. Look out ladies! I think Jim and I will drop by--you know, the stake is always encouraging youth leaders to help chaperone! Anyway, he has been ordained a teacher and we were very pleased that he completed the Deacon part of his Duty to God. He is a good kid.
Ian did VERY WELL on his blog project for this years' Technology Fair. In fact, he took first place! WAY TO GO IAN! The boy never stops to amaze me at how fast he can burn through money--and at how unselfish he can be. He won $100...half he spent on a new game from the Game Stop. Then he took the family out to eat and for ice cream and with what was left he bought me a birthday gift. Very sweet.
Carly is turning into quite the artist. Often we will find her somewhere in the house doodling, or writing letters to friends. This morning, while waiting for the flat iron to preheat, she wrote a letter to her principal to "donate" her teacher for Mtn. View's teacher recognition that happens every month. (She obviously meant "nominate" but it was pretty cute....)
Ryan....words always seem to fall short when it comes to him. Lately he has become quite the ladies man--at least where his mom is concerned. He loves preschool and has become good friends with a little boy named "Newt." Typically he thinks everyday should be his birthday, loves spaghetti, could run for hours and hours without stopping and is a great snuggler.
I have been teaching piano lessons since February. It has been nice being at home most of the time again. On the mornings Ryan has preschool, it gives me an opportunity to do math homework and have a little time to myself. I am enjoying being on Facebook--it has been really fun to conncect with people from my past that I haven't seen in a very long time.
Jim continues work at Great Basin Bank. He is enjoying the fact that scooter season is here! Hooray for the nice weather of late! He seems to have adjusted pretty well to his calling in the bishopric, as have the rest of us. I know he is really looking forward to playing soccer on Saturday afternoons!

Happy Birthday Amy!
Glad to hear Ryan is doing well, Kate randomly tells me that "Wyan is at home wif his mommy all da time". I think she misses him.
Amy! Good to see your new post! I love the Nisbet Family updates. I hope you enjoyed your Saturday immensely. I had a good day here in Elko. I think those who go to the temple are blessed and on the same note, I think those that watch kids for those that go to the temple gain blessings as well. I had so much fun today and even fit in a photo session! Monty helped me with the watching of kids. Good productive day and I will post soon of the beautiful Paige and her date for the prom. I'm loving how they turned out. She is such a pretty girl. This is getting to be quite a comment. Hey, ask and you shall receive:)
