The weather has generally sucked… And everyone has been sick.  So, that is the update for the past 2 weeks!  So, I’m glad we went to fun city when we did!

The kids have been traumatized by our uprooted basketball hoop in the driveway.  We had some massive winds ripping through here over the past week, and I should be thankful that was the only casualty!  But, its also one that can be pointed out to me every time a kid looks out a window!

Don told me he is taking riding lessons.  Ang said, “He wont eat meat, but its OK to make him sweat and carry him around?”  I found this quite hilarious, and swore to post it on the front page!  Sorry Don.  But she may have a point!

Speaking of horses.  Ang worked a booth at the Illinois Horse Fair this weekend.  I suffered along, and listened to podcasts while looking at racks of cowboy-up apparel that was all 50% off.  Joy!  It is for a good cause though.  Ang is looking to participate in the Santa Fe trail race this September.  Its like 800 miles long, and takes 10 days to do.  So, it would be something to talk about if she gets there.  Her team is still raising money and donations at this time.

I really need to finish that Travel diary I started on our Med trip…  I will do some more pics right now!

Oh, and I am going to try and manage some RSS features into the homepage.  What is that?  Well, its stuff that would add live window for updated posts and photos.  Like this news page. You would see this latest post without having to go to this page.  I am not a code wizard, so baby steps!
