Boise Trip 2 day 1

     We flew in last night. Our trip was good and this time I remembered our tickets!! That is great news…Our plane was delayed and full. We strolled on knowing we would not sit together which of course sit by new people I didn’t care one bit. Mike on the other hand was a little more nervous. So let me give you a visual here, Picture the plane full. You are the last to board (well okay 3 people behind you)  We head to the rear of the plane and of course all you see are heads and people and everyone starring at you. So we head back and some young man (20ish) is trying to come back. He looks at me and says “its open seating”  ……my thoughts well duhhhhhhh!! So I said. “ are you telling me there are no seats back there?” me knowing the answer as I can see……bounce back for a second to part of the moral here. When your looking all the people are in the aisle seat or window ( would you expect any different?) so I see more middle seats but he wants to come through us still trying to get a seat….Crazy right? so read back to my question to him. Get this, his answer is…..Well except some fat guy back there that is taking up practically 2 seats. OOOOHHHHHHH MAN, I was lived first of all look at me…..Not miss tiny queen here and second, don’t act like that and be so rude. Personally I was going to sit next to this big gentle man and snuggle right in with him. Until Mike said Becca sit next to the baby and I will go right here. So we sat and isle over from each other. My companions for the plane ride and older man, very nice to my left with a little small talk and a nap for him. To my right was a young Mom with and 11 month old baby. The baby hopped back and fourth between Moms and my lap. It was very pleasurable plane ride for me. Mike’s compannion and older man to his right, tall grey hair….they talked most of the trip about military, sports, etc. His brother happens to be a coach for a college soccer team. Smile  To his left another older man……A captain of another flight. He was in good hands for sure. We landed about half hour late, got our tiny little white (now black) rental car and headed for the hotel. Nice place. Went to dinner and then bed!!

       Now on to Brandon….We have made it to Garden Valley. We made it for lunch with Brandon and then had a long family counseling session. It was all wonderful and went well. We are now in our room as we told them we would respect the decisions they made as far as spending time with him. His group is on Closure which consequences mean he needs to be with his group for today. That is okay. So Mike and I have been into town bought a coffee pot and now just resting before supper time. Well all in all I cant complain!

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...
