24 more days

until school is over for Nolan. Thomas has 9 more days. I can't wait. I know it will be more work with the kids at home, but I will be so happy to get rid of the schedules we have. Our summer is shaping up to be a nice, relaxing one. With the price of everything at an all-time high, we've decided to just do one camping trip with Cub Scouts and that's it for camping. We'll go to Silver Lake at the end of the summer, but we are mainly staying home this year. The boys are going to go to the town's playground camp for a lot of the time. This program is great. For $24 a week, both boys get to see their friends, play outside, go on field trips and get really dirty every weekday morning. And mom will be free 3 hours every day! Now that's a vacation! Actually, I'm hoping to get some bigger projects done at home.

Anyway, today we have Nolan's conference at school and a baseball game tonight. After tonight, we will officially be half way through the season - yeah! Tomorrow is the last night for my class (Mental note--do not take a class in May next year!). This weekend we hope to get some yard work done. Thomas has his baseball game (Cross your fingers that he plays!) and my sister and brother-in-law are coming to visit. We are hoping to go to the Great Escape again on Memorial Day.

And a note to Dad--Nolan loves the Hurricane (It's like a tee for baseball except the ball is attached and swings around when you hit it.) We are losing less balls in the backyard now! He uses it a little bit every day. We've been putting it in different places in the yard to see where it works best. I think we finally found a spot. Yesterday he had a great hit at practice and I'm sure all this practice is helping. Thanks again!
