It finally happened!!! I got notification today that we have been moved off the waiting list and have an official tag number for RAGBRAI XXXI. Now I can continue on with all plans and arrangements.
I have contacted a couple of teams and it seems like a small team that has host family camping sights already arranged in each overnight community will be the way to go. This particular team already has a 9 and 11 year old going, so my 8 and 10 year old would fit in quite well with them.
