Not Much New Today--From Italy


Not too much to report today. Eric was hoping they would be able to watch the finals of the able-bodied compound shooters today, but they couldn't secure transportation to the competition field. So he spent most of the day in the hotel. Which to some might sound very nice and relaxing, but not to Eric who wants to be out on the field shooting his bow.

Here at home though I've had a very busy day. I spent my morning taking a test, that if I pass, I'll be able to add the Media/Library Specialist endorsement to my teaching license. That would allow me to be an elementary school librarian. How cool would that be?! I felt good about the test, but don't have the results yet...so I'm waiting on pins and needles until then. Don't know how soon, or if ever I'll actually pursue being a librarian, but it's always nice to have that option!

Then tonight I was invited to go with wonderful friends to FanFest that's going on in downtown Phoenix. It is in conjunction with the All-Star baseball game that is in town right now. The kids and I had a blast running bases, sliding to steal bases, doing an obstacle course with the style of Reebox shoes the baseball players wear, and even arm painting (I wouldn't let them paint their face!) The kids even got to experience riding the light rail, which they thought was pretty cool. I was so bummed that I didn't think to take a camera and my camera phone is just awful, but here's a fun picture of the kids. It's been a fun day for us and we really missed Eric at FanFest. I know he would have loved it. :(
