Connor's last day of school and our move



Today was Connor's last day of 6th grade. I snapped this picture as he was walking to the car after school. I knew posing for a picture would be corny to him so I thought I would just get a quick candid shot. It was really windy so didn't come out great.

We are officially moved. We are temporarily residing at an extended stay hotel. We are in a two bedroom suite. The perks are breakfast buffet every morning, three complimentary dinners a week (which we will take advantage of), a basketball court, swimming pool (that will open this weekend) and it is pet friendly! Other than the dogs being a little bit of a challenge (keeping them from barking at noises in the hall and getting them out for exercise and potty breaks regularly) it is kind of nice. I'm especially enjoying the housekeeping! It's pretty wonderful to leave for a bit and come back to clean towels and beds made! I could get used to this.

We are planning to be here for 30 days. I'm sure we are in the newlywed stage and the new will wear off. In the meantime I'm going to pretend I'm on vacation. I need to come up with a story to tell the people I meet here. Maybe I could come up with a new one every day. Tomorrow I will be from Canada eh? Maybe the next day I will be from the south y'all! This could be fun. Too bad I'm not a very good actor...haha

I believe I see the future...



AND THE FUTURE SCARES ME!!

Last weekend the boys were invited by some friends to go to an indoor skydiving place. It's called Skyventure. Would you believe I forgot my darn camera! I took this picture with my phone. I took others of them actually in the wind tunnel but I can't seem to transfer them. They had a blast and can't wait to do it again. Alex said he wants to be a sky diving instructor when he's old enough. He thought it would be an awesome job! The funny thing is I can really see him doing it. The problem is he probably would need "real" skydiving experience and that's not gonna happen while this mama's still around..haha
