Spring in the Banana Belt?



Contrary to the weather outside, it supposedly is spring in the Lewiston/Clarkston valley. Who knew we would wake up to snow on the 21st. Crazy!!! My kids are wondering what the big deal about global warming is all about!!




Where is Davy Crockett when you need him? This cuddly looking bear was just across the street in the field for several days. He wandered in from the south, and kind of liked the neighborhood. We tried to spy him with the binoculars, but he stayed in the brush. I guess the advantage of living in a town with hunters in every other house is that there were several offers to take care of him. I hope he made it back to his real home.

Soccer season wrapped up for Kristin and Trevor yesterday. They both had a great season, and as parents, we were glad when they played teams with some defense. There were a few games that could only be described as massacres. Amber's team has had a great season so far and their last 2 games are this coming Saturday. They have one make up game later in May, but it is on a Sunday, so she will be missing that one.
Prom is the buzz word this week. Allison had two dress choices, both of which were beautiful, and her dilemma was figuring out which one to wear. Chelsie's was a little different. Not finding just the dress she was looking for, she and I trooped to the fabric store to find a great pattern (which of course, needed to be modified for modesty purposes) and a very beautiful bolt of fabric. I won't even try to describe it because it will sound ugly! Needless to say, last week was spent with many crossed fingers and a few prayers and a few hours to get part of the dress done. This week will be spent much the same way. So far, so good. Look for pictures next week. (you can cross your fingers and say a few prayers too. :-)
