I was feeling kind of sentimental yesterday as the kids worked on their checklists for the last time. They really are pretty cute. One of the things on the checklist is read a chapter in a book. Morgan has been reading Dork Diaries. She always gets her book, goes into the piano room, selects Claire de Lune from the pre-recorded songs on the electric piano and listens to it while she reads. So cute.
We wanted to do one last fun thing, and we had talked about going to Heise. However, the weather wasn't really super warm and we had a lot of other things going on like Scouts and school registration, so we opted to go to the Artitorium for a few hours. This time Phoebe came too, and we had a good time.
I do have to add one funny thing, because we've been laughing at it so hard. Caleb is very literal and not always tactful (for example. he likes to poke my arm and say, "it jiggles"). So, Kory picked him up from karate last week after he had just had a haircut. When Caleb got in the car, he said, "Hey Caleb, do you notice anything different about me?"
And Caleb looks at him really intently and says, "Well, for one thing, you're being nice to me."
He never figured out the haircut, but we can't stop laughing about it.
And, fyi, Kory is very nice to him, he just gets to be the main disciplinarian too. Tough job.

After Kory got home, we loaded up and went to the Chukars game, because it was Melaleuca night. We ate cheap hotdogs, chips, and pop and watched what we could of the show. The little kids lose interest pretty fast at these things. Caleb became obsessed with the mascot and kept following him around giving him hugs and trying to give him high fives. The other kids mostly just asked for food, food, and more food. Finally the teenagers took off and we took the little kids to their mom, then we came back and finished watching the game with Madi, who is a true sports lover. There was a pretty awesome play that turned the game around and the Chukars won.

Love it! What a fun family!
