Each fall, The Boss Man and Prima Ballerina go with friends to a fund-raising gala in Atlanta. The gala raises money for ALS research. ALS is also known as Lou Gehrig's Disease. The father of one of their friends had this disease. Sadly, he passed away last month after a prolonged battle.
One of the fund-raising things in association with the gala is a silent auction. One of their friends made the winning bid on a trip to Alaska for the start of the Iditarod dogsled race. The trip was for four people so their friends asked The Boss Man and Prima Ballerina to accompany them.
Which leads me to my excuse for being absent. While they were off playing in Alaska, Aunt Woody and Uncle Vol Fan kept Pita and AB. I actually got everyone to school and all scheduled activities on time! Hard to believe but it is true!
We even found time to do a little hiking one afternoon:)
