We just got back from a weekend away in the dells. It was a very needed trip away. I've been working what feels like non stop between classes, the lab, teaching, the dermatologist, seeing clients, and maintaining the house and keeping up with James' baseball and social life. Dave has been working really hard on the basement, so we decided it would be nice to get away for a little while. We left fri morning and headed to Wizard Quest first. This was sooo much fun. Basically it is theme park with trap doors that you go around and try to free the 4 wizards. It is very neatly designed and hard to describe, so I'll just say I highly recommend it. We checked into the hotel and headed to our room to change b/c we wanted to go swimming. We walk into a giant room. (Take the bedroom part of our house away and that was about the size of the room) It was a large room with a king bed and its own bathroom. Another room was attached with a couch, 2 queen beds, its own full bath, a fireplace, and a private patio. I called down to the desk b/c this obviously wasnt the room I'd reserved. I was told that we were complimentary upgrade. It was a really nice surprise. We spent the rest of fri, sat and sun swimming and playing at the indoor theme park. We ventured out to another tourist place called top secret. It was the biggest waste of money. Im not even going to waste my time writting about it b/c it was the worst 25 min of my life. Overall we had a really great time. I thought I'd get more rest than I did, but oh well. I really love our family trips together.

kind of an emotional weekend....
Friday night James had a baseball game. It was his 4th game...they had lost the first 3, so the team was a little down. They ended up winning and winning by mercy rule (they were winning by more than 10 runs after the 4th inning) James had pitched 2 innings...the first inning a batter flew out, then the bases got loaded and then he struck out two players, keeping anyone from scoring. The next inning was 3 up, 3 down. Hes getting better with pitching but it still makes us nervous. He also got on base three times and scored 3 times. He ended up with the game ball. Here I stood getting all teary eyed!
Sun was of course mother's day. James wrote me a poem: youre eyes are blue like the sky, your hair is golden brown like a normal golden retriever (NOT LADY!), youre the nicest person i know. I love you....(lady is my in laws dog) He also made me 4 coupons with daves help...a movie pass, a day of cleaning, red lobster, and a massage. Once again he spent mothers day with us (stayed until bed time even b/c he didnt want to leave) It makes me feel good knowing I am the one he wants to spend the day with

2 down...6 to go...
Time is just flying....I can't believe I have 2 semesters under my belt already. This past semester really went fast. I survived the hardest class I thought I would have...advanced stats! It really could have been so much worse...I had a really good teacher and I passed with almost a perfect grade. I'm pretty excited to still have a 4.0 :)
