So, this being the big holiday weekend, we are heading out tomorrow after school for a camping trip. We're headed to MN, near lots of tax-free shopping, so hope to finish up all those back-to-school needs.
Speaking of school, have you all realized that we have an "official" Jr. Higher living in our house? Abbie is finishing her first week of 7th!!! grade. She babysits and everything. Less than 6 months to go till the teenage years. I swear I'm not that old.
FYI - I'm really enjoying our new wireless router. I'm surfing in the living room while Keith is on the desktop in the office. No more waiting to get on the computer in our house...which should bode well for the frequency of blog entries. Ahhh...nothing brings families together like technology.
What are you all doing for your long holiday weekend??

Holy Cow!!!
...There's a new post!! Yes, friends, it's been a long time coming, but I'm back..and as mediocre as ever.
...I rode with Lance Armstrong!! Well, technically not with him, but we did see him twice. However, I did ride the entire week - plus extra century loop - of RAGBRAI. It was completely awesome, in the non-overused sense of the word. Wonderful, exciting, fun, fun, fun! You all are invited to come with me any year.
...I survived a 21 hour car ride with 2 kids and 1 dog!! That's right, we decided, somewhat on a whim actually, to do the entire drive from Washington to Iowa in one stretch. Keith drove the entire way...he's a stud, and also a coffee addict. My job was to talk to him and keep him awake...mission accomplished.
...The camping season is over!!! 10 summers done and gone. Where does the time go?
And possibly the biggest 'holy cow!' of all..
...The Dagit's are moving to SEATTLE!!! So many emotions over this, most of them not pretty (envy is a start). You guys will love it. The Kalb's will love having you so close. We will love to visit. Go to Ivar's and have a clam chowder for me.
