Rain, rain, go away

It has been storming and raining since last night so there is so much standing water around. Even though the snow is all gone, Cobe still had to wear his boots to school because of so many puddles. Brooks and Sadie thought they needed umbrellas this morning since Cobe was getting geared up to go in the rain.

Survivor was good last night- they switched up the tribes for an interesting twist!

It has been a busy week keeping up with the social life of my 7 year old. Monday night I had bible study, and then it became all about Cobe for the rest of the week. Tuesday night he had a skating party for his school at the roller rink. All of his little buddies went and they had a blast. He is begging to go back again b/c it was his first time using his roller blades inside since he got them Christmas and he loved it! Last night he had his derby car races at church. He did not place. His Jr. car was a little slow on the draw. :-) Of course the competitive side in him has kicked in and he is already asking me, how much longer before I am in 2nd grade? I finally asked him why he was asking so many times, and he said, " Because I need to build a better derby car next year so I can win. Papa knows how and he can help me." Tonight he has his 2nd to last indoor soccer game at 5:00 so we'll be heading to that. Whew! His last game is Saturday morning. I have enjoyed the season, but I have to admit I like to watch his outdoor games more. He starts baseball soon- let's hope that is more exciting to watch than t-ball was last year!

Ryan and I are going to the cottage to check on it for our "date" Friday night. Lisa is going to have the kids overnight, and we are going to head up there. We'll just check on the cottage, go out to a restaurant we have been wanting to go to in Lakeview and then head home. Cobe has a game at 10 Sat. a.m. so we'll spend the night at home, not the cottage so we can go get him in the morning for his game.

Only 7 more sleeps until we head south! Yippee!
