Ready to Hit the Road!

The big day has finally arrived! Max is so excited, he is just about to burst! He loves vacations and the thought of a long time on the road is like a dream come true. He has his candy, his DVD's, his iPod, his books, and his DS games. He couldn't be happier. The rest of the kids are pretty thrilled too, they just don't bounce around like Max does. The car is packed and we will leave bright and early tomorrow morning for our trip to the beautiful Southwest. Wish us luck!

I spent the morning at the elementary school. The third grade class put on a mini-Iditarod with 16 stations full of activities. I was one of the parent helpers so we assisted and joined in the various team-building activities. It was great fun and Max's team had a ball. We let the new French little girl join Max's team and she loved every minute of it. She was even leading some of the activities despite the language barrier!



Spring is finally starting to come around here. We had some geese and fishermen return to our lake this week.


Last night, Tabitha's basketball team played and won their final game. They had been playing yet another tournament this week and finished the regular season and all tournaments with an undefeated record. Pretty exciting for Taba's first year on a basketball team. She sure had a great time and is looking forward to more years of play.
