50 Nifty United States

So, Jack had his second grade "Westward Expansion" program this evening. He informed us before we left that the program would last exactly thirty-one minutes. That was the longest thirty-one minutes of my life! I do have to say that the cowboy/explorer costume that Jack was wearing came together nicely. Thanks to the costume, Jack was able to use his hat to cover his face slightly when he decided to go mining for boogers and when he got hot he used it to fan himself. Ahh, the joys of being a parent.
