Well, I got a babysitting job! I was contacted by a family through the website I registered on. It turns out they live about four houses away! It takes me all of three minutes to walk there, so the commute is wonderful. I met the family yesterday and I am looking forward to my first day. The mom is Norwegian and the dad is South African. They have a little boy who is three years old and a daughter that is one. They both understand English, and the little boy speaks mostly Norwegian. I will be working while Travis is at practice, from 3:30 to 7:00.
Travis has a four day break in November, and we are going to Rome! We booked our flight and hotel this morning. I'm so excited to go! We are most looking forward to eating delicious Italian food and drinking fabulous Italian wine. I can't wait! Our hotel is very close to the Spanish Steps and Trevi Fountain.
Travis wore a new helmet at tonight's game. The leading point scorer on each team wears a gold helmet and after Tuesday's game, he was the top scorer.
When we left the game tonight, there was snow on the ground! Yes, you read that correctly. I said S-N-O-W. I was so cold when we were running errands this afternoon, that I decided to dust off my winter jacket and wear it tonight. I'm glad I did!

That was your dad's comment, Layne. Just to clarify...
Oh my gosh that was an exciting post to read...
Congrats to Travis and so excited to hear about Rome!
Rome is very cool! Be sure to toss your coin in the Trevi fountain. I really enjoyed the Vatican tour as well as the ruins near the Coliseum. Minnell
I am so glad that you are both doing so well. Congrats on the jobe and lucky you to go to Rome! Life is good!
Love, Shari
