Getting Ready for Holland

Eman and Scott leave for Holland a week from Sunday.  I'm hoping Scott will give us regular updates through the blog.  We want to thank everyone who helped make the trip possible!

FROM EMAN:
I'm headed to Holland and you helped make my trip possible so I want to say:
THANK YOU!
We are traveling from August 12th to August 23rd and will get the opportunity to train with some of the best soccer players in the world. Our coach has been preparing us for our trip.
 
Thank you for helping me get there!



Quotes from ANNIE:
We have been watching a lot of Olympics.
A: There's a country named Hungary?
M: Yes
A: You know there's also a country called Turkey.
M: Yes
A: Maybe Hungary should eat Turkey
M: There's also a country named Chile.
A: Wow, Hungary could have Turkey and Chile.

Another quote from ANNIE:
A: You should get one of those gold medals for being a mom
M: That's such a nice thing to say.
A: Yea, they should have a mom competition in the Olympics than you could go.
M: Unfortunately if Eman and Abegail had a say I probably wouldn't make the team.

Abegail put the tooth under her pillow and then refused to sleep in her bed. She wanted to sleep on the floor...and then so did the other two. An hour and a half later, I walked into their room and A & E were asleep in E-Man's bed with the blanket pulled up over their heads. And Annie had sneaked away to HER bed. I asked Abegail this morning if the tooth fairy came. She said...

Today is Abegail's first day of school !!! And like our parents did for us...we made the kids pose for pictures! Unfortunately I wasn't able to take a picture in focus until the bus arrived. Oh well, Annie was picking her nose anyway. Abegail got onto the bus like a real pro!! She was soooo excited! As you can see...Annie and E-Man were skeptical. Frankly, E-Man was quite concerned.
