Thanksgiving Week

    WOW, 10 days since my last post. My brain is not thinking as it should. I am thinking I have not much to say but I think I will surprise myself. Doesn’t surprise any of you I bet. We will start with last week. Starting Monday it has been a roller coaster of a week. Monday we woke to not much snow. As the kids all went to school and the little ones went to preschool the snow came. By the time I was coming home with the preschoolers our school district was calling school to get out early. Roads were a mess and getting home was very challenging with some of the hills. We all made it home safely. The snow lasted until Thanksgiving and our high day time temps were in the 20’s ……Absolutely incredible to say the least. I had a great week off and lots of fin with my children. Thanksgiving came and went just as fast. We had a good one celebrating with family. Tried to just take it all in. My Great Aunt Mari didn’t feel well on Thanksgiving so after supper my Aunt drove her to Overlake where she was admitted with Diverticulitis. Not fun….She is still there. I went and saw her tonight and had dinner with my cousin her son. She seem to have had a rough evening and was in lots of pain. I wish there was more I can do for her. My Aunts are doing a good job. The hospital staff is AMAZING~~……My dad went to Urgent care last night where is has this weird infection in his finger. They gave him an antibiotic shot and some antibiotics to bring home and he is to go back in the morning. It is not looking good at the moment for him. It looks way worse than last night. We will see tomorrow. The kids are all great. We had lots of fun playing in the snow and all the fun stuff. We have played games and read lots of stories this week. Brandon is doing great. They have lots of snow in Idaho where he is and they have already built an Igloo and today he got to go to the sledding hill which 50 ft long I think he said…..He had a blast. He is doing well and staying focused and on track. He gets to come home for Christmas!!! He does not know yet and as soon as I have the tickets he will find out. Hopefully early this week. We are anxiously or at least me waiting on word from my newest 2nd cousin to be born sometime really soon. Smile So EXCITING!! Well that is all I have or is it??? I have so much more but yes that is all I have for now. Everyone enjoy your week ahead….Make it a great one!!

He Swallowed a What??

Image
Not sure where to begin. Alright it is noon and Courtney is getting ready to take a nap and Cameron had just got in trouble so he needed to go to my room and take a rest. Court just went to bed and Cam is in my room. I sit down at the dining room table to finish some paperwork. All the sudden Cameron comes running down the hall screaming holding his throat, “I swallowed it, I swallowed it.” I said “Cameron what did you swallow?” Cameron, “ I don’t know it was silver metal, I don’t know what it is?” I am at this point going what on earth now. I can not fathom so we keep talking he gets a drink of water and coughs and says I really did I swallowed it. At this point the older boys know what he swallowed. So when we all came to the conclusion, we did in fact decide it was a battery. I try to call his doctors office but they had just left for lunch. I called poison control not sure what prompted that as I have never called them ever. The lady was wonderful on the phone and told me that if i...

I Have Missed.......

Well today was a good day. It was oh so HOT……I love it….okay well I love it as long as I can come in the house and cool off from time to time. Spent most of the day outside doing absolutely nothing except being kissed by the beautiful SUN!! My niece came over with my Great Nephew (thanks!) and we had a wonderful visit….Have I mentioned how precious he is? Cameron went to his first night at Mega Sports VBS and that was exciting for him. Tyler is camping at Dash Point with a friend. As for me and Courtney we went to Preston to go to the kids bounce place for a birthday party for Tucker. So while I was there I got to see the all the little ones I watch during the school year. Believe it or not I have missed that so much. As hard as it is to devote a day to kids all day with in reality no break can be difficult at times. Some days I was absolutely exhausted and some days I felt great. Some days were filled with happiness all day and some days I was so stressed I wanted to be done. No matte...

Safe Travel......To and From!

Travels……..So much to say and don’t know where to begin. Started my venture and decided 10 min. into the ride I was tired. I really dislike when that happens. I prayed immediately for safe travels……Thank you for those that took the time out to pray!! Travels were safe. Loud music and window down….dancing…..just to stay awake and make the run smooth. Let me first off start with I got some gas. Then I get into Puyallup and coffee is calling my name but decided hey I can wait. So what do you know……Starbucks on every corner and I wait to find the next one and NOTHING……….Keep driving, NOTHING…….Heavens to Pete I think by now I am going to die. So I am driving staying very content with the driver in front of me. A truck pulls out in front of him and he had no choice but to pass at that moment. So I got stuck behind this truck that is driving 35-40 in a 55 I finally get in a safe place to pass so I do. Of course he speeds up…..but its all good……I may like to drive fast but I do not like to pa...
