Will had crazy sock day at school.

Dr. Seuss HAT DAY at school
(but he wouldn't wear it)

Addison liked the hat.

Will had soccer games on Tuesday and Thursday.

 

He and his friends ran non-stop for 1 hour and had a BLAST!

 

 

Addison at soccer games climbed up and down the bleachers non-stop.
Both kids went to bed easily afterwards!



Soccer medal!

On Wednesday, after school, Will had wrestling.

They played Sharks and Minnows which was fun too!



The rest of the week we stayed inside and played with cars and read books
and snuggled and laughed.  It was fun!

 

Leisa & Dale at Disneyland HONG KONG!

With Chewbacca

Dale and Leisa came home and the next day we took a drive to see some sites.

We went to Gettysburg, Pennsylvania.

We explored the field area which is lined with memorials dedicated

to the men who died here.

"More men fell during the Battle of Gettysburg

than in any other battle on American soil before or since."

Dale and Addison stayed in the car because it was quite cold and windy.
They took a picture of Leisa, Will and I up in the tower.

 

Next, we drove to Hershey, Pennsylvania!

a basketball challenge to earn free chocolate!

Sunday, we went to church and Addison wore her new
silk Kimono from Hong Kong

It was a really fun week!
