This weekend, we are headed out of town for a mini-vacation, our first since we've been back from France. (We don't tend to count visits to family as vacation.) Of course, we probably picked a lousy weekend for it, but who knew?!
Our November has shaped up to be kind of weird. Back when we made these plans, we had no idea that Jeff would be going to France for the last two weeks of the month. He leaves a week from Saturday and will gone until November 28, that lucky dog.
Yep, he's gone over Thanksgiving. The downside of this is obvious. The upside is that he'll have a couple of extra vacation days that he can use at Christmas. Fortunately, he will be here for my super-duper ultrasound on November 11, when we will find out if Baby #3 is a boy or a girl.
Charlotte has a countdown going. "Six more days!" she'll spontaneously chirp. I'm never sure what exactly she's counting down. Last week, it was days until basketball practice. This week, it's evidently days until my ultrasound.
Anyway...
Tomorrow, we're off to the Wisconsin Dells with the Fiedler family from our small group for three days of water park and resort fun. The kids are very excited, and the adults are working on it! Our basement project probably could have used this weekend at home for a final push toward being at least halfway done. But we'll manage, and I know we'll have fun once we get there!
As I mentioned earlier, Charlotte started basketball practice this past Tuesday. We went to watch and make sure she doesn't have a wacko coach or anything like that, and we were pleasantly surprised at how quickly she picked it up! Her coach is a very tall, soft-spoken man (not at all a wacko!) who did a great job with the girls. Most of them were slap beginners like Charlotte, and he was very patient. I think that this will be a good experience for her.
Have a great weekend!
