Vacation time is almost here - but before that........Emilia has a school play! We're totally looking forward to it. Mom and Rachel I know are for sure coming over to enjoy the show. =) Anyone else?

Exciting news here - Just when you think the neighborhood is safe - it happens! The battery in Chris's keyless entry fob-like thingie went dead. So, Saturday night his doors did not lock... and guess what? The car got broken into - while sitting in our driveway! Yes- it got trashed, everything pulled out of the glove box and center console. All they took was $8 cash...and maybe the Tripley game pennies out of the trunk (Chris swears we brought them in the house, but I still can't find them...) BTW - who's up for a Tripley night? We haven't had one of those since...um.... Kokomo with Casi and Shane, Martha and EB?? Chris just had a chat with the neighbor and he said his car also got broken into. Same thing as ours - rummaged through pretty good, but nothing of any importance stolen. Chris really freaked me out however, when he pointed out that all they had to do was push the garage button on the visor to have access to the garage and the house. Thankfully, it does not appear that they got into the garage or the house.

Speaking of game nights - we FINALLY learned how to play Yahtzee Free-for-All! WOW! It really was a lot of fun. I told Emilia she should be happy she missed out on our DOMINOES phase, or she'd playing that almost every night. Ah, now I want to play Harry Potter Clue again!

Homework awaits! Lots of writing to do - but first I'm going to step outside again and help Chris get the yard straightened up while it is still 58 degrees! Tomorrow is to be even warmer!

Bring on the Spring!
