Plumb Tuckered Out

Heidi had a speech meet on Tuesday. Tom was able to take the day off of work so that we could both go and support our girl. A speech meet is not the best place for our two little ones because it's really a day of sitting quietly all day long, which, at the ages of 3 and 4 is not their cup of tea. ;) So, on Monday evening Gracie and Isaac were off to Grandma and Grandpa Dick's house for a few days. Boy, did they have a big time!! Lots of playing and spoiling, which IS their cup of tea. LOL! Grandma's house is about an hour or so from our house, so on Tuesday after the speech meet we met them halfway to pick up our little bundles........boy, did we ever miss them!! Before we got home they were both fast asleep. We brought them in the house and plopped them on the couch, which is where they stayed until we put their jammers on them and tucked them into bed. So, they slept from about 5:30 pm until the next morning. Now, that's two plumb tuckered out youngins!

Heidi did a great job at the speech meet! Her category was "humerous reading". Her reading was called "Lost Mail" by Tom Bodett. You know, the motel 6 guy, "We'll leave the light on for ya". It's really pretty cute. She picked it out herself. Unfortunately, no one from our school was able to stay for the rewards ceremony because of the distance from the location of the speech meet to our school. So, the kids that participated are still waiting to see how they did. The results were to be mailed to the school. Maybe we will find out today. Talk about torture....poor kids! ;)

Love, Wendy
