  2. You are taking piano?! That's awesome. I need to get back on track with practicing and figure out a schedule so Russ can start giving me lessons again. I am glad you put that video up of Michael otherwise I would have no idea what it was he was involved in. We are still praying for things to work out with Shannon. Love you

  3. Ethan says to tell Michael he's a ninja! Ethan thinks parkour is so cool and wants to get into it.

    Hey, and if you find that motivation to exercise....send some over my way, I could use it. :)
