Beth's visit, Day 1

Oh man, I can't believe my last blog post was on Wednesday of last week.  For some reason, things have been pretty busy around here.

I volunteered in Emily's class on Thursday and Friday last week so my bloggy time was done-for on those days.  On Saturday, we had morning swimming lesson and then a pot-luck lunch at a friend's and then Mike and Cibele were over for dinner.  On Sunday morning, we had church and then Beth arrived on Sunday evening.  Wow, no wonder I haven't blogged in a while.

Beth (and Kate) are here for a week.  Hooray!  It is just a smidge colder here than it is in Texas but so far Kate has handled it well and we even had her out in the sled today.  This morning we went over to the library.  Beth and I made cauliflower-sour cream souffle for dinner (so yummy).  Basically, we eased into our week.  I'm keeping Emily home from school for the next two days so we can venture a little further out (by bus, now that the strike is over!).  Tomorrow we're planning on the Nature Museum and stop at the yarn store.
