It was a calm weekend! Kate went on her confirmation retreat Friday- Sunday. She came away after the family mass on Sunday night very moved. It is a wonderful experience to self examine yourself as a 13 year old on the verge of high school. I'm sure many of the lessons learned will stick with her forever.
The Ryan's were also in town for a short but always fun visit! Christmas was officially put away and the storage room was officially cleaned out! We also purge a dozen bags of clothes that the kids have out grown. If I could just have a few more days at home with little to no running of children my house would be so much happier!
