The Next Million Dollar Baby

It seems that as of late our little girl is training to be the next light weight champion of the world. She is moving around alot. According to the doctor this is a good thing. To update you all on this past two weeks nicky and i started back each taking one class. Me my last spanish class at the U of U and Nicky her second to last pre-requisite class for the nursing program at the U of U. She pays about a third of what i have to pay to attend a class ( and she will be getting it all back because her work reimburses her for taking the classes.) We are pretty happy to say that things are going well with managing the properties for Mom and Dad Giauque. We have only had some minor run-ins with collapsing trees and the dog that should not have existed. Other than that it seems to be mostly under control. Last night, after three weeks of rehearsing Nicky and I performed for a red hat party for a tennant in our condo complex. It was quite the party and nicky and i graced them with such hits as "Mona Lisa", "In the mood", selections from the musical "Don Quixote de la Mancha" and "Earth Angel". We were warmley recieved. I thought that we might run out of songs but before we knew it it had started to rain. I guess that worked out well. We have come to know and love many people in this area of salt lake, in our ward and the surrounding community. We are also getting involved! We joined a community chorous last week called Jubilate, with which on the anniversary of September 11, 2001 we are to sing Motzart's Requiem. What a powerful piece of choral music.
Now Nicky is writing. We've had a very busy and productive summer and we look forward to things cooling down and enjoying some more fall-ish weather. We are planning a little get-away for the Labor Day weekend up to the Tetons and Yellowstone. We are really looking forward to spending some time away from the hustle and bustle. Managing properties has been some work but it's good experience for us and financially very helpful as well.
As a change of subject, the best part about being pregnant is feeling all those little flutters and pokes from our little baby girl. We love her already and look forward to meeting her face to face...and then changing her diapers for the next three years.
We wish to extend a Happy Birthday to Hana whose birthday just past and Mom Giauque whose is upcoming.
We are looking forward to a Kay family party of the 8th of September. If any Kay desires that we communicate anything with anyone or everyone here, please let us know.
Thanks for all your love, support, prayers, and monthly wages.
Nicky and Benjamin Kay
