So, in case anyone reads this, we have new plans... EUROPE! My dad has applied to leave, and his boss accepted, so next year, we hope to be leaving in September, and going until December! We were thinking about buying a river boat and doing the canals, but apparently they close in the fall.. so I guess it's a camper van!!! It should be great!!! I'm so excited to do it!!!

Wow! That sounds fantastic! It will be hard to wait now that the planning is approved and beginning. I can't wait to follow your blog adventures across Europe. Merry Christmas Stephanie and to your family from Joe, Laura and Kathleen.
... and more....

Sailing has stopped.. finally.. soccer has started, and so far that's been good. I'm playing for the school team. There are some exchange kids from Germany at my school, which is cool. My teachers are all really nice, and so are the people in my class, which is great!!!
My parents are still wondering wether we should be going to Europe next year for three months or not. Right now I think my mind is set on going on exchange to Europe next year, if I can get a scholarship!!!
We will be hauling the boat out soon, and doing some work to it, to get it to wrok a little better.. fix up the hull.. Mum and Dad are planning big renos on the house too... Skylights in the living room, pushing the ceiling up to the roof.
I'm now out of optis, and not really missing them. They were getting a little slow...

bye,

Steph

Stephanie, your upcoming year sounds like it could be very exciting. I think you could convince your Mom, she loves giving you girls these life experiences and will likely not pass up on Europe!! Kathleen is still in the tryout process for soccer, 4 tryouts so far in the last 2 weeks with 2 more to come. Seems like a long process but we are new to this so maybe it is normal? See you at the Turkey Bowl! Laura

school has started, and it's actually great.. I mean, other than the fact that I got homework the 1st day back. Everyone in my class is awesome! One girl just moved here from Singapore, which is pretty sick. Opti provincials were this week, and I helped out on the RC boat. My friends got back from notionals in BC. It would've been fun to go, but plane tickets.. well.. if I want to dive in a competition elsewhere.. then.... only one trip for just me a year.. unless my mum gets something out of it :) lol. I joined the soccer team. Now all I need is a pair of cleats.. and a hair cut.. not that that really has to do w/ soccer. Though I pretty much stink at soccer. It should be fun, if not embarrassing..
Marine came in 1st in the green fleet in provincials.. she should be getting out of that fleet by now. She isn't really allowed to stay in it any more.
Long weekend... mentally.. Ugh.

Steph :D :D :D

Wow, that is great for marine. Kathleen loves soccer and is hoping to play this winter on either Scotia or Sackville United, tryouts will be later this month. What team will you be playing on? I am sure you would be good at anything you put your mind to!
