Field Day Activities

Snow cones are a must - after the water slide, of course!  She took a few bites, handed it to me, and then came and took it back when I got it all mushy and perfect!

She couldn't wait to get her face painted, must have waited over 30 minutes for her turn.

Field Day

Walking to school ready for the fun day!

My boys.

Jamie taught Kaden how to tie a neck tie for his 8th Grade Graduation.  He practiced and practiced...he was so proud of himself he wanted me to take a couple of pictures! Such a stud!

The boys sold 60 cheesecakes for their Wrestling fundraiser.  The evening they were in we drove the neighborhood delivering over 50 of them...here you can see both boys riding with the back of the van door open and ready to grab a cake and run!

Poor, Sick, Morgie

Sunday = croup; Monday = doctor visit for croup, surprise strep swab = positive (antibiotic & steroid given); Tuesday = a little better; Wednesday - Friday = fever, headache, runny, stuffy nose, cough... ONE LONG WEEK!!   

Running fever and complaining of a headache, poor girl.  We think she possibly had the flu on top of the croup and strep throat...possibly a virus causing high fever, too.  It was horrible!

One look at the above picture and Daddy came home to help take care of her.  It really did take two of us.  One to hold her and one to run for the fresh ice water for the wash cloth and food/popsicles.  He's a wonderful caregiver.

Storage

I finally found the perfect storage containers for all the crayons and colored pencils we've collected over the last 10 years!  I saw a red paint can at TJ Maxx and it gave me the idea, and a wonderful friend told me they sell these empty cans at Lowe's - so now I just need to go back for one for markers.  Morgan loves it, she just grabs the handles and takes off.

 

More Morgan

Cheese!

Mmmm..."hot tea", Nutella on toast and 1/2 of a mini bagel with strawberry cream cheese - breakfast of champions!!

Well deserved lunch after doctor visit - strep test & blood prick!  OUCH! 

Morgan

Every time Morgan gets dental work done, she passes out on the way home...poor girl.  Luckily this was the last of 4 visits.  We're hoping the next visit will produce better results.

Cub-a-Thon...warming up, ready to run!  Morgan ran all 40 laps, way to go girlie!

Cheeseball!

Kolton, poor sick Kolton

I took Kolton in to the ER (used to be an Urgent Care center until the hospital was built) Saturday night and he tested positive for strep!  He would NOT let me take any pictures, but he did opt for the shot instead of a bottle of pills!!  He's my hero, so brave!

Another Birthday Party

Chuck E. Cheese...why do kids love this place?

Birthday Party Fun

This was Morgan's first time on a Slip-n-Slide...took her a bit to figure it out.

She decided that laying out was warmer...she's her mama's girl!
