I survived!
I am thankful I continue to make it through long days.
Here is what I mean ... during the school year I teach piano three days out of the week. This means I say goodbye to E-man from about 2:30 or 3 until anywhere from 7-9 at night. So, during the school year I get just enough of a break for him that most days fly by and I never feel like 'shew - that was a LONG day with my child'. (Don't get me wrong, I love being home with him but I also really look forward to doing something else and having a break for a few hours.)
During the summer, I teach one maybe two days and for not as much time. This week I only taught one day for about 3 hours so I have seen a LOT of E-man and he has seen a LOT of me. :) On top of that, Ross is speaking at Bethel's Basketball Camp which puts him home around 7:15/7:30 Mon-Thursday this week and next week and that REALLY extends my patience factor. :) So I'm thankful we survived each other today and I'm thankful Ross is home!!
(REALLY though ... isn't he great!? This is a cowboy shirt Beans bought for him and he wanted to try it on - he was already wearing his penguin boots so yes - this is quite the outfit :))

Wedding Season
I forgot to blog yesterday and there is a good reason.
It is wedding season in our family! Josh and Ann are right around the 50 day count down with lots to do. Ross and I are happy to help and lately that has included helping them assemble their beautiful invitations. They have been working with Print Central and The Paper Depot and doing it themselves. The end product looks SO good! We started work on them last Wednesday night. On the 4th, I started addressing the invites for the Ridder-side of the list. On the 5th I finished addressing all but the last 3 or 4 we're still figuring out addresses for ... and on the 6th Josh, Ann, Ross and I finished assembling them and I even sealed all of the ones that are complete ... now it's just a matter of stamping and off they go! How exciting!
I'm thankful to be living close to Josh and Ann during this season of their life. It's fun to be together working on these kinds of projects and it is making me REALLY look forward to celebrating their wedding day with them! WOOHOO! :)
