Welcome to Indi!

I've been anticipating this year's conference for weeks!  I'd love to be able to say that I was packed, organized, and ready to go weeks beforehand, but I can't!  As usual, life with kids keeps us hopping.  Abigail had a change in her school placement for ESY, the older kids were signed up to be counselors for our church Vacation Bible School, our neighborhood yard sale had to be set up, and the conference all coincided to make for a very busy few weeks.

David and I headed out at 5:00 a.m. Friday morning for the drive to Indianapolis and the 42nd annual NDSC conference.  This year, it's just the two of us.  Indi isn't a place where there would be much to interest our kids, and since Grandma S. and Aunt Wendy volunteered to watch the kids... here we are!  It was a beautiful day for a drive, and the clear skies and sunny weather made for easy stops along the way.  We made the trip in just under 9 hours and arrived just in time to join the 3:30 afternoon workshops Friday afternoon.  More on those in the next few posts.

I must say that what we have seen of Indianapolis is very beautiful.  This year's conference is at the JW Marriott and the accommodations are very nice.  We are on the top floor next to the Presidential suite, and the garden view is spectacular!

We have been busy with breakout sessions, so posting time has been limited.  We're headed off to a movie premier (again, more in later posts!), so we'll see you later!
