Back into the Routine

It's so hard to get back into the hectic life when all you have done the last three days is sit in a car and watch the miles fly by. Kat came home from school with a 2 inch stack of make up work and Creston with about half that amount. He was bragging last night that he was almost finished and Kat was fuming mad. Thanks to Liz/Edwin for the great bed and great company. We came home to 8 brand new puppies.....sigh.....I'm really not into the puppy thing right now. We managed to stop at 3 outlet malls on the way home and got a few good deals. As the kids get older they tend to be a little more picky....and what is it with Kat's age.....the clothes look like they need to be on a 16 year old instead of a 11 year old. They wonder why there are problems in our society! The good thing is, Kat is very modest and lets hope that lasts through the 16 year old stage. Jord started back to school yesterday and he was a little grumpy.....he also has a hard time adjusting to change. Well, we got the deal of the century. I priced tickets for Gideon's wedding and was able to get them for $200.00 each....quite a steal. We are flying in on Thursday and flying home on Monday. Hotel anyone???? we are getting one and if anyone is planning on staying in a hotel, we would like to be at the same one. Indoor Pool, hot tub...etc...We still can't feel Fall in the air.....we came home to a wopping 98 degrees! I longed for the cool Oregon air.
