short. sweet.

1. Sham-rocktion 

We had a great time at the event this year.  Sometimes I feel like the odd man out since all of the other kids go to private schools BUT I'm also 42 and have learned to just be who I am and not worry about what other people are doing or thinking.

 

It was also great to see Maggie perform and hang out with Josh and Laurie

2. Jack's field trip

We visited Conner Prairie when it was 10 degrees out.  Yup.  An outside field trip when it was cold AF.  At least it wasn't snowing, the kids were great, and I actually learned new things.  This was my very first field trip chaperoning experience. I usually like to volunteer in the classroom.  

3. Cameron babysat

This was Cameron's FIRST sitting experience (for a little one who isn't close with the family) and he did great!  I drove him there and home, but he made a TON of money plus they brought him home food from Ruth's Chris.  I am hoping he is able to have a lot more experiences like this in the future.  

4. Permits

The twins both passed their permit tests on the third try.  We are purchasing a car from Mike and JoAnn McGuire and then I need to get them out on the road.  This is an exciting but also CRAZY time.

5. Owen's Rehab

Owen gets his brace off next week!!  He has done such a great job staying positive.  I am ready for his arm to be back to normal - I can't even imagine how he is feeling.  I am also impressed by the resilience of our kids.
