Welcome to the 21st Century!

At last the Snyder family is online! After viewing the blogs of other family and friends, we've created our own. We're new to this, so bear with us.

As for current events, this week Nikki successfully completed her third annual cookie exchange--24 women loaded with 4 dozen cookies each invaded our home for the evening...unfortunately, two cookies of each kind is just not enough. This week, I am grateful that I am the only member of the family that likes coconut.

I am overly busy with work, and don't seem to spend enough time at home. I am working on a design for the worlds fastest rollercoaster (135 mph). Sounds exciting, but it's still just work.

Austin recently advance to the Bronze/Silver swim team. Now the practice last for 1 hour 20 minutes, and each swimming stretch is now longer (75 yards at a time). Let's see you swim that much! He only complains about all the chlorine in his hair each night.

Hayden completed horse riding lessons, and has just started basketball. 8 points in the lastest game (after dad offered a bribe of course). He recieved his Bear cub scout award this past week. He plays games on the internet way too much and has started getting out of bed at 6:00 each morning to get his turn in.

Sara has also started basketball, and is coached by her dad. She loves to leave notes around the house for everyone in the family. She want to make sure everyone knows that High School Musical III is the best movie ever made.

Carson a cute little pill who gets away with just about anything he wants. It's great to be the youngest in the family.
