Okay folks…it has been awhile.  I won’t bore you with details, but the lack of updates has been completely related to a high level of frustration I’m experiencing with our (former) friends at the Bill Webb Studios.  As I’m sure you all recall, Bill Webb Studios helped us get our videos rolling.  For those that check in every now and again, I’m sure you’ve noticed no videos rolling.  Let’s leave it a that…

We’re working on the video issues now.  So…maybe by next Christmas, I’ll have the outstanding Holiday Performance by Paris’s class…maybe I’ll have the Christmas pix posted, and maybe I won’t be charged with murdering our friends at Bill Webb Studios.  Let’s hope for the best.

Quick updates!  Let’s go in reverse chronological order (with only one tidbit per superstar):

Paris is kicking the proverbial butt in school!  Kindergarten will never be the same.  We’re gearing up for the Daddy-Daughter Dance next week!  Yeah!

Cameron is the up-and-coming God of Fencing!  He has been brought in to fence in all of his team’s matches thus far, and more often than not, he’s being asked to fence the opposing team’s ‘A’ Strip fencer (the #1 guy).  I don’t have this week’s details yet (schedule changes due to weather), but he’s only lost twice this season (both times 5-4) and has won at least four or five…I’m reaching until I talk to him tomorrow.  Regardless, he’s got a winning record, he’s winning against the better fencers in the league, and he’s learning fast.  Another Trunzo rocks the NJ World of Fencing once again!  Congratulations Cameron!

Kristin is applying to schools for next year.  She’s thinking about staying local (for a lot of reasons), and she’s trying to keep a ton of options available.  She’s managed to improve her grades by leaps…bounds (!)…leaps and bounds…she’s doing so well this year!  She’s laying the groundwork for a successful college career, and we’re thrilled for her.  Nice Kristin!

Mark is enduring “the Dark Ages” in Annapolis.  This is the time of year when the weather is cold and grey, the breaks are few and far between, and everyone generally agrees that anywhere is better than where they are.  It’s a common “funk” for everyone at the Academy, but Mark seems to be keeping his head above it all.  He’s doing exceptionally well academically, he’s doing very well in track, and he’s kicking the proverbial ass across the board.  We’re talking really, really good stuff here…Academy discretion and valor dictate that I stop there.  If anyone contacts me privately, I’ll give you the amazing details.

And finally…we have a “friends” entry on the Friends and Family list.  The Trunzo family isn’t the only family that gets to share great news about our kids.  Our good friend Chris sends news about his son Taylor.  Check out Dad and Taylor here:

Personally, I would rather not have Taylor get angry with me anytime soon.  He placed 3rd in the Indiana Wrestling State Sectionals (hence the ribbon), and he will now go on to the State Regionals where he will get another crack at the guys who took first and second.  This is significant for more than the obvious reasons: the first and second place competitors only beat Taylor by one point each.  One point!  I’d say he’s in the hunt…congratulations and good luck as you move on Taylor!  Kick some ass!

Okay folks…more soon.  We’ll have more video, we’ll have old videos fixed, we’ll have pix, and we’ll have news.  If there’s anything anyone would like me to post, please send it along!

Hugs –
