There's NO Place Like Home!

I am back from Chicago and couldn't be happier!  I had a GREAT time and game back with my brain turned into mush.  I am overloaded with all the information I learned.  The top reading researchers were at the conference.  It was amazing to be in the presence of such influential individuals.  

I horribly missed my family though.  I am happy to say that daddy did a fantastic job holding down the fort on his own.  There was only one mishap.....  Bailee fell head first into a water trough.  I think it scared daddy more than it did Bailee.  Now we are battling an ear infection. Water and ear tubes do not mix well!  

Today I am just enjoying being home with the kiddos.  It is messy outside but we need the rain desperately!  Daddy is in Lubbock at a judging contest with 12 students.  They were suppose to head to Amarillo in the morning but with the expected blizzard conditions there, they are headed home in the morning!  We will have 2-3 days together as a family before we head back to school!  Life is SO good!
