March 12th weekend

What a busy week!

On Tuesday Gabe had a concert at Liberty High School.  All the Hillsboro' Elementary, Middle and High school bands performed, a couple of songs each.
Liberty band did the grand finally.  Great vibes, as always.

On Wednesday Miranda had Hillsboro's chore performance.  Everyone did a great job!  From the soloists to the beginners' group.

Friday night I took Larissa to the rehearsal for the upcoming American Girl fashion show.  The show is a fund raiser for the Gales Creek camp.  A camp for children with Type 1 diabetes.  Larissa went to the camp last three Summers and loved it.  It is only a week long (for each age group), but kids make wonderful friends and learn to better take care of their diabetes.
Right after the rehearsal, we darted to a "Craig's List" location where I bought a used snowboard/bindings/boots set for a great price.  Now I have my own equipment!  It just needs a little "tuning".

Saturday was a bit insane for me!  Tim went skiing with his friend, so I was left trying to get three kids to three different location, all at the same time.

First I dropped Miranda off at her meeting place for a 9am run, then Gabe at a coffee shop (waiting for a 10am lacrosse practice), then off to the fashion show by 9am (bringing Jon along).  At lunch I had to run back, collect Miranda and Gabe and bring them home (with Jon).  Then, I went back to the show for a 3pm session.  Afterward, a quick stop at a couple of stores at the shopping center we were at, then home!

On Sunday Tim decided to take Jon skiing on a whim.  They both had a great time and had many stories to tell upon their return.  Looks like Jon is a natural and needs little directions, since he is still at the age when he is quite fearless.
