Update on Jess, and a bit on the family...

Hi to all!
Well I decided I would write and say hey! No one has written in a while so I thought I would give you an update on what I have been up to.
First of all of course there's school like always the normal routine go to school, get home and eat dinner, do homework and if I have time check facebook and e-mail. Lately I have had a ton of quizzes and tests so that has been a challenge studying and trying to do the best I can. So far I am doing really good I think I have all A's!
Then Wednesdays is a bit different. I get home from school, I am kind of rushed to eat so I can go to youth group at 6:00. I usually have to take my homework to do at youth before we start the meeting, that way I don't have to stay up that late doing it after youth.
Just a few weeks ago I started teaching the 3-5 year old Sunday School class, so Saturdays that is what I do is prepare my class and get ready for that. The kids can be a challenge sometimes, but they are usually pretty good, and I love working with them so it is really a blessing to me being able to serve the church in a simple way.

Let me give you an update on the family...
Dad as normal goes to work every morning, except now he has Friday's off so he usually just does some work around the house on Friday's.

Mom has just recently started helping out at the library in Carmen's school, so Carmen is always excited when Mom comes and sometimes stays and eats lunch with her! She has also started working in the AWANAS program at church and is director of the cubbies group (which is the 3 -5 yr olds I think).

Aaron is doing good at Texas State and has already had a lot of writing projects to do (or so it seems). He is probably the busiest of us all, because on Tuesdays he works after school, then Wednesday is youth group, Thursday he works and has worship team practice, and Saturday he works so yup he is keeping up with everything pretty good, and I am proud of him!

Carmen is liking school and making lot's of new friends. She still has lots of time to watch t.v. and play after she does her homework! On Wednesday she has AWANAS so she is enjoying doing that again this year. Please be praying for her because lately she has been having her asthma act up again so just remember to pray for her!

Well I think I have said enough for now so until next time, you guys have got a pretty good idea of what's going on with the Briles Family!!
love,
Jessie
