Back in Time

I have been watching the neighbor boy, Jake, while his daycare is closed and yesterday the funnest thing happened. I had greeted them off the bus and then I went inside because it was a little cold. A few minutes later Tate and Jake come in and Tate says something like man the good old days were hard. I am now in the room beside them so I just listen. The conversation continues something like this...

Jake: What about the good old days?
Tate: They were hard!
Jake: Yeah!
Tate: They didn't have houses and everything was dirt!
Jake: And no lectricee (electricity) too!
Tate: Yeah, just one light bulb for lectricee!

I was just rolling on the floor listening to these two six years reminisce about the old days. I did all I could not to laugh out loud for them to hear me and stop the conversation. There was more to it but that is all I can remember.

Since Will's season is wrapping up I added some hockey photos on the slide show to honor his season. Will is number 3. The team is now in the district playoff with single elimination. The first game was on Monday and of course they won. So tonight we are off to the second game, which is over an hour away. With game time and the drive we will be gone from 4:30pm to around 9pm. Late night for Tate, heck me too! I truly hope that they don't win because then we have to drive to even farther on Saturday. The team will probably win because of the drive and Mike is going to be out of town so I will have to drive. I don't mind driving it is just the there is suppose snow this weekend.

Hope Mike's travels go ok too. He is going to New Orleans for a work trade show and will be gone until March 1st. I think this will be the longest that he has ever been away from the family. He never travels for his job so I don't real mind this trip that much. Just hope that the weather doesn't effect his or anyone's travels this weekend.
