March Happenings

Hello everyone - March is half over and we have been very busy in the Istock house.  We have been working on the yard and our efforts have paid off.  The grass is very green and growing like a crazy.  We have been decluttering the house.  We have made multiple trips to the goodwill.  I think Maggie maybe a little worried because her house is moving to the garage.  She really has nothing to worry about because she has a queen size bed she sleeps on, ( she only lets mommy and daddy share it.  We will let you guys know how the decluttering is going.  We have had beautiful weather here.  It's really been a bit too hot.  I know Kenzie is loving it.   I miss her a great deal.  She is doing great at State.  She sends us pictures from the library to let us know she is studying really hard.  She is busy also.  She and Lee will attend the Carolina Cup on April 2nd, April 10th, she is running a 1/2 marathon , ( Tim and I want to go and cheer her on), and she has her ADPI fund raiser in April.   She just got back from Spring break.  She and Lee and friends went to a beach house owned by one of Lee's friends.  They had to take a ferry over to the house.  Cars are not allowed on the island, only golf carts.  She would like to have a pink one.  She also went to visit her friend Brit at UNC-Wilmington for the second half of the week.  BJ, Nichole, Mary, and Sydney are doing great but busy with work and school.  Mary and Sydney are doing great in school.  Tim and I ran a 5k on March 12th in King, " Feed the Stokes 5k,".  My brother, Gerald help organize the run.  This year, there were over 200 runners.  Well more to come.
