Plus
Equals
Yes, that's right. Rain plus sick kids. That was our weekend. It all started about 12:30 Saturday morning when Jack woke up vomiting followed by more vomiting around 6 and John was also running a high fever by then. Nice. Jack threw up for most of the morning but by mid afternoon we had the fevers under control and everyone was in better spirits. All was looking well. Until Sunday afternoon. Ella said she wasn't feeling well on the way home from Costco followed by vomiting until bedtime. She woke this morning with a high fever and has laid around all day. None really have their appetite back yet but they are all looking better than they were when their heads were hung over in the potty or the "throw up " bucket. Ben hasn't looked sick yet so for that i am grateful. We have gotten a few things done around here despite the bug going 
around. Ella and i had some girl time on Friday night. We got manicures and she is very proud of hers. Eric and i have a wonderful sitter that the kids love. Jack's soccer coach, Melissa, came and kept the kids while Eric and i went for dinner Saturday. We also got our monthly grocery shopping done. It would have been nice for the weather to have been beautiful and the kids feeling great but my life can't be perfect all the time. HA! Maybe next year. Between the rain showers we did get to go out and enjoy some watermelon.
Anyway, i would like to take a moment and thank all the servicemen and women who defend and protect our country and freedom. On this day of reflection, i don't daily thank God for the precious gifts i have here at home and i rarely think of those who are making sacrifices to protect me and my family. Shame on me. My Grandfather served and my cousin Shellie also serves our country. I think that is a very large sacrifice and i am truly grateful. In closing, here are a few pictures of baby Ben. More updates coming soon.

Really like the new layout. Excellent work. Sorry the weekend was full of sickness but glad you guys got out. I also wanted to let you know that I received your card in the mail today. That is disgusting and you should feel a deep shame in your soul. Esp if you paid money for that.
HATE TO HEAR THE KIDS WERE SICK BUT GLAD YOU AND ERIC GOT TO SPEND A LITTLE TIME BY YOURSELFS. LOVE THE PICS HOPE I CAN FIGURE OUT A WAY TO GET IT TO PHOTORAMA TO PRINT
