Soccer Camp

Last week I drove the kids to Wheeling, W.V. (about an hour away) to go to a toy and train museum. It was not very impressive. On the way home we stopped at a Cabela's to look at the animals and then a Russell Stover outlet and had ice cream. This week has been pretty relaxing. Henry has soccer camp in the mornings and on Monday we went to the park afterwards and had lunch and then we went to the pool. We haven't done much else. The neighbors come home this weekend and we have some things planned with them...a couple museums, etc.

Keeping Busy



The most exiciting news is the fact that we got a new stove! Yeah! I burned the rice yesterday because I was so used to the old one that took forever for the burners to warm up...when they did warm up. So, we have been back to the Children's Museum, went to a Trolley Museum, a chocolate store (yum!) Of course the kids didn't pick chocolate, but I did. We joined the pool this week and have been twice so far. It is much colder here than we are used to, but we are still having fun. I finally got tired of combing Sadie's hair, so she got her first haircut on Saturday. I wonder how long until she gives herself a haircut...ugh!

Back in PA

Well, we made it "home." The weird part is that everytime I thought of "home" while we were in UT it was FL that I thought about, then I had to remind myself that we don't live there anymore. I really miss it though. The kids and I haven't been to the pool once this summer...unheard of! We got home Saturday night and pulled ourselves to church Sunday. The few names that I learned before leaving have totally left me. Monday and Tuesday we didn't do much, not even unpack. Wednesday I took the kids to the Pittsburgh Children's Museum...this was the best one I have ever been too! They had a water area, arts and crafts and a whole bunch of other stuff...we were there for 5 hours. Today the saga of the stove was solved...don't ask, but I get a free stove next week!!! Yeah
