Leaving on a Jet Plane
Okay, so how many of you have a middle school child? How many play sports and are involved in music? I'm sure they compete against other schools right? Do they have to fly to the other schools? Crazy huh! In order for our Middle School to get any playing time they can A: take a four hour ferry ride to Prince of Wales island, B: Take a one hour flight to Sitka, or C: Take a one hour flight to Juneau. Our team? Well we did all three this year.


















It was one of the hardest things dropping Aaron off at the airport with his ticket and wishing him well. Seriously, it was hard. As I was talking to Dylan about it I realized that he will be next year! The kids are growing so fast. Literally too, Aaron stands at 6 feet 1 inches (13 years old), Dylan is 5 feet 6 inches (12 years old) and Morgan is 5 feet (10 years old). I think that maybe I will get my basketball team after all!

I hear you there sister - just wait until they have to use their own passport for travel. Shocking - and yet cool at the same time. It's hard to be away when he competes, but thrilling to see him evolving.
