5 down this weekend :(

The Rileys fell like dominoes this weekend, one after another. Only Paul was left healthy. Luckily the virus of the house only hit each person for about two days. It started on Thursday with Tom, then Jack Saturday, Kate and Anjie Sunday, and Will Monday. Sudden horrible headache, and fever in the 102s were the main characteristics. The past 5 days were filled with waking up with screaming, putting kids in the bath to cool them down, and running for the combo of motrin and tylenol. Except T yaks up any medicine, so he screamed literally all day when he felt sick. I think everyone actually woke up in good moods this am, knock on wood.

First Day 4th Grade!

Bye Bye Birdie!

Tom was Ed Sullivan in the production this weekend of Bye Bye Birdie! Kate donned her sock-hop costume from 5th grade to embrace the spirit of the show. For those of you unfamiliar with the musical, Bye Bye Birdie is set in 1958 and was influenced by Elvis Presley being drafted into the Army in 1957. Congrats, Tom!!

100 days left

We have just over 100 days left in the UK. The kids are super excited to get back to the States, and we are too. We have had a great time here, but look forward to being 'home'. This is the last week of term, and only term 3 left! The last term supposedly goes fast, as the weather improves, there are Suzuki concerts, the talent show, and lots of field trips. We have some travel still lined up, plus some visitors to join us - looking forward to seeing you, Auntie Sarah and Uncle Aaron! Stayed tuned for pictures of our last few adventures. We are starting to get the ball rolling on movers and pet shippers and all that fun stuff. And we have to have the whole flat cleaned once our stuff is out. One step at a time!
