Spring Break flew by TOO fast, but we had a great week (until the end...). Rafe's first day out of school was a big day for him. He bought his very own IPad Mini. Rafe has been saving his money for a LONG time, which is very hard for him to do, and when he had enough money he wanted to buy it immediately. I was proud of him for being so dedicated and sticking with his promise. He LOVES it and maybe a little more since it was bought with his own money!
Monday morning we traveled to Tennessee and spent a few days at one of our favorite places... Dollywood. We met up with several of our friends and the children enjoyed riding rides together.
We are ready to go back already!!
Tuesday Cory talked us into touring the Forbidden Caverns. This is something he has been wanting to do for a long time with the kids. What we didn't know was how dirty and wet we would get inside!
Friday was NOT a good day for Rafe. He was playing baseball with Cory (luckily with a tennis ball) and was struck in the eye with a very hard hit ball. He seemed to be alright after getting over the initial shock of being hit but unfortunately it did cause him to suffer a concussion. We took Rafe to the ER and they did a CT scan on him that was completely normal, thank goodness. It was a very scary situation and it caused me to keep an eye on him even more than usual all weekend. The biggest challenge was keeping him low key. I am so thankful it was no worse than it was.
