Spring Break

The girls are on spring break this week. Kate is convinced that EVERYONE else in the world is on vacation outside Eden Prairie. For some reason it was very hard for her to understand that we weren't going to D.C. this week. Mary and Bill got us tix to the water park in Owatonna, which we did yesterday (the girls had a ball). They have play dates tomorrow and Thursday, but somehow none of that was enough on Saturday for Kate. UNTIL Jenna got all excited about the fact that when we do go, they'll be missing school. Since Jenna was excited, it was a little easier for Kate to accept.

Joe's leg finally started feeling better on Sunday. It was looking like New York and D.C. were going to be big problems. He thought it would have been pretty funny to have me wheeling him around NY while we were there, ha...ha.... but, he can finally hobble around without breaking a sweat and he's dropped the percocet dosage from maximum to minimum. He saw the Dr. today and is ok to fly next week, so we're good to go!

We're planning a happy hour April 22nd. More to come on that later.....

Tell me more on Happy Hour and I'll have one for you here in HK!!!

So glad to hear some good news on Joe's leg and the girls' happy to miss school!

PS. Tell Kate that we wanted to go somewhere (Thailand, Bali, Korea, etc..)on Lily's break, but we're not going anywhere! Too expensive for us at the moment. :(

What a pair you two make ..... love it!! If Joe needs a pair of crutches, I have a pair to borrow. (: They are Aarons, and he won't need them until May sometime, when he has his ACL replaced. (The second time in a year .... NICE!)

Happy thoughts are being sent your way!
