5:00PM CST: Randall is on his second of three trips out of town, and we're surviving, but we sure do miss him! Everyone is doing well, in spite of the recent snow storms. We haven't lost power, thank goodness, and the kids only had to miss a little school.
Lizzy got 4th place in the mid-high spelling bee yesterday, which included 6th-8th grade. She lasted the lost longest among the 6th graders, but she doesn't get to go on to the next level (only the top 3 do). I was really proud of her though! Her losing word: luxury. Maybe it's a good thing that she's not familiar enough with that concept to know how to spell it!
