Elizabeth represented Finland this past week during her school's Parade of Nations event, which involves a poster presentation to her class and an evening event for all students and parents. Although it was in the 80s outside in Georgetown, she was true to her country's weather and wore her winter garb for a couple of hours while explaining Finland's habitat, pasttimes, and geography. She worked hard on her project for several weeks and her effort paid off: After she gave her class presentation, her teacher e-mailed me, telling me how proud she was of Elizabeth's spectacular work ...400/400 points!
Meanwhile, Michael's basketball career is over for the season and he's back with his soccer team. Today the 4 of us (sans puppies) traveled to Indiana to watch him play. Apparently soccer is like riding a bike and you never forget how to do it; you'd never know this was his first game in 8 months. He played most of the game, which ended in a 3-3 tie. (Lame officials.) The first photo reminds me of the "Airplane" game that kindergarteners play!
