Wave Your Magic Wand, Here Comes the Coffee Fairy

Well Happy Groundhog's Day everyone.  I must admit that most of the day passed before I even realized it was such a momentous holiday.  I never did hear, but I'm assuming by the beautiful weather today that the furry little varmint saw his shadow and scurried back down into his hole for another six weeks of winter.  Shocking. Welcome to the great Northwest.  I can't complain.... it's really been a pretty nice winter.  Hopefully the rest of it is just as mild.  Makes me feel for those people in Chicago, New York, Houston and such suffering through blizzard like conditions.  I'll take our snow-less winter any day!

In other news, today was my first day of delivering coffee for the Coffee Fairy.  The Coffee Fairy is a new business here in Canby that will deliver coffee to you from your favorite cafe with a nominal delivery fee.  No more mid-afternoon cravings for Starbucks!  You just have to give us a call and we'll bring it to you.  It was pretty fun.  I made five deliveries and made $30 all in about an hour and a half.  It works.

Austin has his second basketball game tomorrow.  He is really enjoying it.  Bless his little heart.  Truly he is probably my least competitive child, but he is improving greatly.  Of course he is the tallest on the team so I think the coach got pretty excited when he saw him walk onto the court.  Little did he realize my dear son's lack of experience, but again, he gets better every practice and I know he'll be awesome by the end of the season.

Drew has one of his last swim meets against Clackamas tomorrow and then has districts next weekend.  He is hoping to letter this year.  You have to swim 10 individual varsity events to qualify and he thinks he's close.  We're hoping!

Tomorrow Zane has a field trip to Franz Bakery with Tom squeezing in as a chaperon.  They weren't going to let Tom go because of limited bus space, but the teachers made an extra effort due to the situation with Zane's mom.  It means a lot to Zane that Tom is able to go.

Well that is the latest and greatest.  I hope you all had a fantabulous Groundhog's Dog with lots of celebrating and wishes granted!  Hugs and loves to all!
