Since we have started school the kids are doing well. They have enjoyed reading and doing work that goes with Lewis and Clark expedition all the neat things they ran into.The cultures and land.

They have done quit a bit but there is always more to do. My husband Thomas, Jon-Jon, Makenzee and Lileigh are so lucky they are headed to New Mexico to see my Mom and Dad. The are planning on stopping at Copper Breaks State Park to put tent up and sleep then explorer the place. The will resume to New Mexico after they explore the area. What an adventure. On the way back they are are going to Palo Duro Canyon State Park TX.. They better have lots of pictures! I explained to the kids that they are being a Lewis and Clark and try to find something new and have fun!
