Our trip to Illinois

Well, we probably traveled during one of the harder times - having a daughter who just got good at walking.  Man, she just does not want to sit still!  Can you blame her though?  For our first leg of our flight to our connection in Detroit she was non stop movement for 2 hours.  We were exhausted.  She must of been exhausted too because she slept on the entire second leg of the flight to Peoria.  Anyway, our visit was great and we got to see grandparents, great grandparents, cousins, aunts, and uncles.  We luckily had a great cottage to stay in on the grounds of the retirement village and that helped make it easy to keep Hadley sleeping well and in some what of a routine.  

We're now back to Maine and settling in to my second week of spring break from teaching.  We had a nice warm day today which gets me thinking about spring but also about some good spring skiing.  Before we know it, it will be summer.  A wise ex-coworker of mine once said, "Blink and you'll miss the rest of the school year."  

Here's some video from after we returned on a nice March day...I'll see if I can put a compilation of our Illinois video together before the week ends.
