Weekend Review

The weekend was a fun one for the kids. Saturday morning, Tyler had a basketball game. He's getting better and better at it. He made a few baskets for his team. He has such a great coach. Tyler's team has only lost one game so far, and that was because only 5 guys showed up to play for his team. After the game, Tyler, Leigh and Micah went over to our adopted family's house "The Griffin's" to play with their kids. Tyler and Harrison went with Harrison's grandpa (who's also our dentist), took the boys to the Wigwam Creek Resort to play shuffleboard. The two of them had a blast! Who knew shuffleboard would excite 8 y.o. boys. Leigh and Samantha helped out Aunty Sara deliver zuccini and zuccini bread to all the neighbors. Sara is so good about doing service for your neighbors. Micah and Trenton just played all day outside. The two of them have a grand 'ole time just playing. We are going to miss them so much!! Sara and I are so close that we are sisters. She and I are both the oldest in our families, we both have brothers that are the same age (who consider themselves brothers as well), that we worry about from time to time, as well as the other siblings. We both have four kids, and we are both nurses. In fact, she and I both worked at the hospital I am still working at. She helped to deliver the babies and I took care of them afterwards. Once in a while she and I would get to work together on Postpartum Floor and we had the best time! She and I have the greatest talks. We make each other laugh so hard sometimes that we are cry. I will miss her. I'm just glad that we have email and telephones even, to bridge that distance. The kids were there from 1:30pm-6:30pm (poor Sara). Thanks!! They had the best time!

Kara opted to stay home with mom and dad. We went shopping for some clothes and then splurged and got ice-cream from Ritters (they sell frozen custard). When we got home, Kara played with the neighbor girl across the street. We told the neighbors we were leaving and they seemed kind of sad. I'm looking forward to going, but boy am I going to miss it here.
