Finally Friday!

Well, I guess it's my turn to get on here and fill you in. The Hofer's are moving right along with life here in Sioux Falls, SD. Although the pace of life is much slower here I feel like we are going 100 mph. Of course we wouldn't know what to do with ourselves if we weren't doing that. Tymothy and Alex are doing great. They love their new school, Christian Center Elementary School. I (Kristen) am teaching Music K-5 now at the school so it's nice that we can all be together during the day. Mike had his first big Wednesday night at The Filling Station. We had a wopping 115 show up to our grand opening. Wow, 5 adults just doesn't do it for that amount of students. We had fun getting to know our new students and feeling as unprepared for music and the word as we ever were. We definately were not ready for that many students to show up. This weekend we will be going to the President's Bowl here in Sioux Falls. All of the high schools here are named after presidents, just like Mt. Rushmore. They all rival and have a huge football bowl and that is what we are attending on Saturday. They also have the marching bands play and all that fun stuff. I am excited to hear the bands of course but Alex can't wait to see the cheerleaders. I think she will wear her Indy Colts cheerleader outfit. Some of the cheerleaders go to our church and are really encouraging her in that way:).

We have a few new pics to put on here from lately. Of course we are in delay with that. They will get on here soon. I hope as you read this blog you are having a blessed day and just remember to pray for us whenever you have a minute. We are missing home, family and friends so much. We've missed funerals and babies being born...Madelyn Carpenter. We love you all and just know their have been tears shed by us for you.
