How are you? ?Long time no speak. ?It's Candi from FYSA. ?How is everything going?
Re: **soccerbride22**
Hi Candi! I'm doing great - can you believe Delaney is already a year old?!! She is walking / running, talking and being just so freakin' cute! Blake is still a stay-at-home dad and doing very well with it, although I think it's kinda tiring. But I love my job, so I won't be trading places anytime soon!
Kaley is getting ready to start her senior year and can't wait to find out what college she's going to. She's applying to UVa, UNC, UGa and UF. Then the other night she asked me what I thought of University of California / Santa Barbara! Um, no! Too far!
We take Chelsea back to UF August 2nd to start her sophmore year. I will be sad! She has to go back very early because of Rush. :-( And she really wants Kaley to come to school with her, but UVa is Kaley's first choice.
So are you married now? Do you talk to anyone from FYSA? Blake got subpoenaed one night and had to give a deposition for a case against FYSA. But as far as we know, he wasn't called to the trial unless they haven't had it yet.
Good to hear from you!!
She is sooo cute. ?You guys make pretty babies. ?:) ?Any more on the way? Hehehe. ?I can't believe he's a stay at home dad. ?I think that's great, just not how I ever pictured Blake. ?:P
WOW!!! ?I can't believe she is going to be a senior this year. ?Time sure does go fast! ?I know it's her choice but I would pick UVA as well. ?It's a great school, and well, it's the State I'm from so I love it.
That would be great if they went to school together, but I can also see where now is the time for both of them to start their own lives. ?Good luck with both of them and I hope school goes great regardless of where Kaley decides to go.
Yeah, Brett and I got married in Key West on May 30th. ?It was great. ?I'd love to send you an announcement. ?If you get a chance email me your address. ?c_powers1 at hotmail dot com. ?Are you guys finally into your new house?
I don't talk to anyone over there anymore. ?I hope he doesn't have to have any more to do with that case but if so, good luck to him. ?Does Cheryl still work with you??

Delaney is soooo cute. I love the cake pics. Its hard to beleive shes a year old already. Amazing how time flies.
Aw...thanks! The cake was actually quite a disaster. As you can tell from the pics, she got it in her eyes almost immediately. And even though I wiped it out, she would NOT taste the cake. I finally gave up and rolled her inside to wash her up. As I was running the water she finally tasted her fingers, then it was "mmmmmm"! She loved the icing!
Thanks and congratulations! I will email you.
We are in our new house, we've been in just over a year. We moved when Delaney was three weeks old. Then we moved Chelsea to Gainesville two weeks later. It was awful! But we love the house - sometimes its too big (when we are cleaning it and Chelsea isn't home) and sometimes its too small (when Chelsea is home, we have company, or the girls have friends over).
Cheryl left right before Christmas. My boss can be hard to work for, and Cheryl is so sweet and took everything personally. I think she decided to just wait until after wedding to find another job since she was getting married around Valentine's Day.
Blake of course would be super excited if Kaley got into UVa. Because he is her step dad and we have custody, he counts as her father. Since he's an alumni, she gets in state considerating for admissions. They take 70% in state and 30% out of state. So, she only needs a 1300 on her SAT - gasp! She got a 1290 so she's going to try again. And the girls are best friends, but I think it would be good for Kaley to spread her wings a little. The girls swear that they are going to build houses next to each other on a big farm outside of Atlanta - ha!
::I'm also going to butt in::
I have to say Tonya, that Delaney is absolutely adorable!! And in that last pic she looks so pleased with herself for destroying that cake.
Just cursious. . .do you ever call her "Laney" for short?!? That's my nickname too. 
Also, I remember seeing your renovations pics on your bio for your new house. I really loved your style in your old house and I've been curious what you would do with the new one. Especially since I remember you saying you were redo-ing most of it so you basically had a blank slate. Do you have any pics of the finished house? If so, I'd love to see it!
