The Countdown Is On...

46 hours until departure from Houston to the Twin Cities to check into the hotel
65 hours until the Houston Hurricanes play for their first ever state title

Whew, talk about a busy phone line in our house. (Macin is asking for a bedtime snack already [it is only 5 pm]). Last night Jason walked in the door at 8:21 from parent teacher conferences (yes even if you win football games you still have to have those wonderful evenings). From 8:30 until after 9:30 he talked with four media from newspapers and television. Macin is learning to answer the phone so she throws them all off when they call. "Hello Freed's", "Is your dad there", "No" long silence, then I am guessing they ask to talk with her mom.

And for the last week, my form of communication with Jason (my school email) has not allowed him to email me back...wait, don't I teach online, shouldn't I have incredible technology...must be wishful thinking. So tonight hopefully he really does get home at 6:15 so we can have a conversation. Oh, craziness.

Anyways, I accomplished the goal of getting ahold of a shirt for Jenny, but sorry Kevin no success with a hat (unless you have a head that cannot hold a brain, that is what the baseball coach said when he checked the hat sizes he had left) and the ones the booster club sells are "very, very ugly" according to Jason so I decided against that. Could get a grey stocking hat if you want the grunge look wearing a stocking cap in doors.

So, I look forward to seeing you all this weekend. Do you have the red and white window paint? We just got ours...signs are in process as well. Macin has made signs for the boys too (until she cut her finger with the scissors last night...she was even holding them the correct way).

See you all in 50 some hours.

Em

P.S. I am going to try to capture Hayden watching Dancing with the Stars tonight. She is quite entertaining and Macin says she gets a "10"
