Cedar Campus

Just wanted to share some pictures of our very last-minute vacation at Cedar Campus, InterVarsity's camp in the upper peninsula of Michigan. We were there for a family camp, and this could very easily become a family tradition for us.

Besides going off (in our own car, no less) for a week of vacation, we have found our house. We close this Friday and will move in a week later.

The kids are signed up for school. Justin started cross country practice yesterday (six miles!), and we will go for his registration this morning.

Anna and I will go visit her school sometime before it starts on August 15th. We bought most of her school supplies yesterday.  

There are a few odds and ends to find before moving in--a couples mattresses and some dishes. But, the vast majority of what we need is stacked up in the garage waiting for moving day thanks mainly to my generous downsizing parents who have seriously good taste in furniture. No orange and brown plaid recliners to be seen.

Back to yesterday's school shopping--Anna's feet were measured before we chose her gym shoes, and we found out the her right foot is a full size larger than her left foot. And, when we were all examining her at home, we discovered that one leg is longer than another. Pediatrician visit is imminent.

Next post--Registration day at Justin's school or Why Americans Freak Out in France.
