Sickness and a happy home

This week was a rough week, but at the same time ended up really good for the whole family. We have all been sick Kelly and I have sinus infections and both kids have colds. I don't think I have ever gone through that much klenex. We used almost 6 boxes this week between the four of us, sometimes one box a day. Well as we all started to get better we were finally able to play outside and have some fun. We have all been hanging around the house watching tv because no one felt good enough to do anything.

On Friday, Kelly left for Time Out for Women. I am really glad she went, she always has such a good time and comes back feeling better about herself and spiritually charged. On Saturday it was raining so I had the kids and we got bored inside. Mackenzie isn't quite old enough to play most of our games and I can only take so much of Hi-Ho Cherry-O! So I put every one in the van to go to Capital Mall to play on their indoor playground. After getting in the van I realized that I had to fix the windshield wipers because the drivers side windshield wiper broke off completely at the base. So with the kids strapped into the car I quickly fixed it and we went to the mall. We played for half an hour when Spencer came up to me and stuck his arms out for me to pick him up and layed his head down on my shoulder. We got home just in time to welcome Kelly home from Time Out for Women.

Today we woke up and it was snowing. I don't know what that's about, but it's already almost gone. I thought Spring was supposed to be near by? I am starting to get nervous about tomorrow because I am taking my middle school band on their first trip. We are only going about 40 minutes away, but it is a mass band festival where all 12 schools play the same 4 songs in a huge 400 piece band. I am excited, but I want everything to go well. I still have 5 kids that haven't turned in permission slips to go. AAAAAAAH! That's like a third of the band. I know of one student that can't go, but come on I've reminded you every day for the last two weeks to get them turned in.

Well I am hopefully going to be taking pictures and will post them as soon as I can. Have a great Sunday.
