It is so nice to go visit a "new" place...even though it was only Michigan (again), but it is even better to be home. I missed my kids so much.

Celia was so beautiful at her dance recital. I can't believe how much she has grown compared to last year. Last year she looked like a doll in her dress and this year she looked like a small princess. It is so adorable to see the little kids dance. After all of the work that goes into teaching them how to dance together, I often wonder how the teacher feels when they don't move in sync : )

Noah was not the pitcher tonight, or the catcher, and he did miss a ball that came into left center, but the team did win. He was able to run the bases after he was dealt a "ball", but I explained that baseball is a team effort, so it took the whole team to create the run score.

Memorial day is coming up, but I am so far behind on school work that I am afraid I am not going to get to take advantage of the vacation part of the weekend. The kids are going to be gone to Mom's and we are supposed to be going to the Brewer game and hopefully 'Cracked Pepper' in Dubuque for dinner. I am definitely looking forward to checking that out.

I have been so crazy busy lately that it seems like time is standing still...same thing every day. Hopefully some day soon, things will slow down.

On a crazy note, I for the first time, was able to try out bacon on ice cream...yes, BACON. It sounds entirely insane, but it was wonderful!!!!

Later gator-
