Obama! Taxidermy! and rotating beds

I took the kids out of school today and we went downtown to see Obama speak. It was really awesome. They were really excited and the energy in the arena was catching. I don't think my kids (or I) have a true understanding about the tears streaming down the faces of old men as they watched Obama enter the stage and speak.

Dad leaves tomorrow afternoon. We went to Clark's Fish Camp with Rachel and her boys. A great place. Lee would love it. I don't know why we have not been there before. The finest taxidermy displays around (kind of weird...but really impressive). The menu, however, was the most interesting. Anything exotic from Ostrich, Alligator and Kangaroo to Mac and cheese, and fried green tomatoes.

The kids are wiped out with the time change and I am wiped out from working all weekend and keeping up with my life. So we are all off for an early night. The kids are currently rotating nights to sleep with me and tonight it is Hazel's night. She snores so I am hoping she does not keep me up all night!
