We had a fantastic fall break! Lily turned seven…7!…how did that happen?????? She had a friend spend the night, we went to Chutes and Ladders Park (it’s AWESOME and wore out all three kids in less than an hour. All of them slept all the way to dinner.) Then on Saturday my brother, two sisters-in-law, two nephews an mom all came and spent the day/night. We walked over to Minnehaha Falls and the playground over there, had tacos for a dinner, then had a Wii dance party. Yesterday morning we visited two playgrounds, the bakery and the coffee shop. Oh- and I finally got the blood work from my latest endocrinologist appointment—after worrying about the less-than-ideal-but-still-not-bad results six months ago my cancer is UNDETECTABLE. It was a fantastic weekend!

I will be back with Book of the Week next week, this week I’m finishing my last round of edits on the Ruby Slippers sequel…watch for a big reveal (with free stuff!) towards the end of the week!
