Levi's time in South Dakota was productive as he was able to finish up his heart rotation, as well as defend his thesis. Thankyou for your prayers, I know he really appreciated it. He seems to think it went well, although they have not heard officially how they did. I know he was just relieved to have it over with and behind him. The boys and I drove up last Friday and joined him, kind of made a vacation of it.
We all had the weekend together, which included lots of swimming, going to the Apple Festival, and of course a visit to Chuck E. Cheese. A funny thing happened there, the twins were up by the stage watching the robot-like Chuck E. Cheese sing and dance (as well as dancing along with him, which was funny enough all by itself...) Levi and I totally thought Marcus knew it wasn't real, and he was sitting by us hearing us talk and laugh about the twins trying to get Chuck's attention...Carson and Cole came back and were all disappointed that Chuck wouldn't talk to them. Everyone went about their time there playing games and eating lunch...then all of a sudden someone dressed in a Chuck E. Cheese costume comes walking out to greet some kids who were having a birthday party. After that, he was nice enough to come over to our boys and give them hugs and say hi to them. (Which obviously made their day!) Marcus comes running back over to us and points at us and says, "I KNEW he was real! I KNEW it!"
That next week it got pretty cold there, and was rainy most of the time. The boys and I just spent time swimming and playing while Levi was in classes. It was a nice getaway, but it's also very nice to be home. We are really thankful for the Lord's protection in all of our traveling lately, everything has gone very smoothly. Have a great week, and enjoy these pic's!

you guys have traveled a lot lately! wow!
people in costumes have always freaked some of our kids out... the robots on stage... it is funny to watch the kids go close but then be ready to make a run for it if the robots make one false move :)
Yeah I know it seems like all we are doing is traveling...with his program there seems to be a lot of travel involved, so we're trying to make the most out of it as a family and go with when we can.
