Our Angel

Last wednesday, Lindy had an art and music show at school. This is what the principle said about our little angel, Lindy, in a weekly newsletter she sends to the teachers:

"Bet you didn't know I saw an angel Wednesday night~ Yup, sure did. She stood about three and a half feet tall, with strawberry blonde hair, a sweet smile and a voice...well...like an angel. Her name is Lindy and she happens to be in Mrs. Verrill's class. Most of you don't know Lindy, but I have to work really hard to get a glimmer of a smile from Lindy when I see her, because she tends to be on the slighty introverted side. Much to my amazement, however, Lindy stood up in front of four hundred people during the art and music show and sang a solo that would have melted the heart of Mr. Snow Miser himself. Okay, crying jag number two, although it was more of a blinking back tears, can't swallow because of a big lump in my throat kind of cry. It was another one of those out of body moments, with me thinking, THIS is SO why I do this job~" ~Laura Shaw, Principal

Mrs. Verrill printed this out for us and I got a little weepy-eyed when I read it. When Lindy got up there and sang loud and clear as a bell into the microphone, I was holding back tears, too. I know I had a ear to ear grin on my face and I kept thinking, "That's my little girl!".

New phone

Matt and I got new phones on Friday. Still trying to figure it out. We got Blackberry Storms.

This is the first time that the "free phone" was actually a good phone! Verizon was having a buy one get one free sale. So if you text me and it takes me awhile to respond...I'm still trying to figure this one out! It doesn't always ring when there is a message. Hmmmm.

Oh well! Its still a cool phone! LOL

It's been awhile

Well, it's been awhile since I've posted.

Here's a picture of the kids that I took a few weeks ago.

So what's new with the Hyndman's?

Matt and I are involved in a "Biggest Loser" contest at work. We started on Jan. 5th.

Weigh in: As of 2/11

Jenny 175 162

I'm a little disappointed with myself. I know I could be doing better. I'm not resisting the sweets temptations! Ahhh...well. I only have one life. And if I'm still losing weight and my clothes are not fitting anymore, because they are too big then YIPEE!
