We all survived the week. Ken left Sunday about 4 for Chicago. It was the first day in a long time that I had to get all the kids fed and Evan off to school. We did that just fine and he got to walk to the bus by himself and was very proud to do that. Rosemary came down Monday morning and was here until today. It was great to have and extra set of hands. It was great not to have to worry at all about supper and just spend time witht he kids. The daycare kids loved her too. Thanks Rosemary!!
Ken had a board review class and it was "like being back in school. They went from 7AM to 6PM and then had a 120 question test each niight. He met one of his friends that he used to work with at Medic in Davenport, IA. He is also a PA and he lives in MI. They were glad to go through the torture together. Ken left earlyt Friday and got home about 7:30 and didn't hit any bad roads until he was in Rochester. And what a relief to get him home.
We had about 14 inches of snow from the storm last week and another 14-15 from this one. There is so much snow the kids had a hard time walking around in the back. We are going to make a big slide in the front in the space between our driveways and the next. It should be fun.
Our babaysitters form IA are coming tomorrow. They are 20 now! YIKES!!! For those of you that don't know, they are twins and we met them when they were 7. This is the second year that they spent their Spring Break with Team Bentson. It is fun to have them here and it is also a shopping trip!
WE, notice I said we, started skatoing lessons today. I am in a class for beginners and the twins are in a class. Evan is also in lessons so he can "be a better skater." I was nervous but she said that I did great! I din't fall anyway. The twins and Evan did very well. Then Ken and Evan had practice tonight.
We are planning a quiet night and a quiet day tomorrow and get ready for the new week to start.
Take care and thanks for checking in!!

Cute picture! I'll bet the kids have been having fun playing in the snow! We're looking forward to seeing you this weeki-end and coming up on the 30th!
Drive careful!
Love,

Hi Krista and all!
I sure love checking in and seeing and reading about all the stuff you guys do. You are always having so much fun together! I can't imagine that much snow! The slide idea sounds neat...I'm sure the kids will have a blast.
We're thinking that since you've had so much snow upstream from us, that we will get to see it as floodwaters this spring! Yikes! But that goes with the territory when you choose to live by the Mississippi River.
Take care and keep up the fun times!

I am sure your kids are loving the snow just as much as ours. They like when we drive and the car gets a little wild on the road.
Fun times to always remember..
I didn't realize you had started your skating lessons! That is so neat! I would be suck a chicken about getting on the ice. Maybe I would do it if I were wrapped up in Charmin like the little kid in the commercial.
