What we have been up to

I have been so neglectful of the of the blog lately.  I guess I just needed some time away from it.  I mainly keep it for a scrapbook for our family and now that I am off facebook I do not dare assume there are any readers left other than the occaisonial grandparent.  I am defintely going to finish our Give Kids the World trip, but I wanted to catch y'all up on what we have been up to.  

When we found ourselves at the being of February, I knew we would be so busy and the time would just fly between those days and the end of school...and it did.  We had our Give Kids the World trip in February, we went "camping" with friends for Spring Break at the end of March and then we had our annual family trip to Smith Lake a bit early this year the week of Memorial Day.

I knew that three trips in four months would not be easy with our girl, but Chad and I want her to have every experience she possibly can and we all want to do those things with her and with each other. With February and the coming months laying out before me, some of my thoughts tried to convince me that it would just be easier to stay home...those thoughts are right, you know.  It would be easier to stay home, in our environment, in her enviornment.  It would be easier to stay home where all of her equipment is easy to get to and we have her chair and her bed and all her stuff.  

Traveling with Sophie Kate is hard work, but the experiences with the people we love are so worth it.
