What a week

between fielding sick kiddos, a visit from my parents, working and Mike attending a bargaining session for his new contact at work, its been quite a week.

It was great to see mom and dad. So glad they could come up and visit - its probably been the longest time between visits since they had grandbabies. I don't think it'll be that long again, in fact, looks like they are planning another trip in 4 weeks.

Mike got home tonight after a couple busy days negotiating. Looks like they might have a deal and he seems happy with the outcome so that's good. All confidential yet so no details though.

As for me, I'm still working away at Elyse's album. I finished another 3 pages tonight which puts me about 3/4 of the way done. I can't wait to let them see the finished product. Wish I had some more detailed journalling to add but without actually being there its hard. I think I'll take mom's advise though and add a few hidden journalling cards so Elyse can add her own thoughts.

On another note, I signed Laura up for a science summer camp in July. It looks really neat and is everyday for one week. I'm sure she'll like it and I hope she gets a thirst for science out of it. I know she's still so young but it can never hurt.
