Sickness Be Gone!

Ahh, it's finally Spring Break and to be honest, it couldn't have come at a better time.  School was just wearing on and on and there has been a flu outbreak for the past two weeks so we have been short of teachers, help, and some days kids!  Trey tested negative for it one week and then positive for it last Thursday.  He didn't get the flu shot this year because he was sick on the day they gave it at school (remember the Thanksgiving Program we missed) and I never got around to getting it for him(epic parent fail!). Makena has had a touch of something too and missed about three days of school.  I thought I was in the clear and the Friday came.  I started getting sick, but was in big-time denial about it.  I mean if you got outside at all this weekend you know that it was a beauty.  Temps in the upper 70's, sunshine, and blue skies....so there was no way I was going to be sick!  I made it through most of Saturday and we went out to eat with my parents and grandparents at Dondie's.
It was sooo good!
 
  By this time time Trey had been fever free all day long and mine was just starting.  I know, this is so not like me, to go around spreading my germs!  Well, when we got home I went to bed and did not get out of it until Monday morning!  I haven't been down that long in a very long time.  I was so glad that Carl could watch the kids and it wasn't a work day.  As far as I know we are all better now. The nights are still rough (for me) but I am doing better throughout the days.   I'm still praying that Carl doesn't get it because he didn't get the shot either.  Carlie should be good to go, she's been on Tamiflu and had the mist :)  And, like always she's doing her best to stay away from germy people.  I wonder where she got it from?!

So now, I'm casting my spell, "Sickness Be Gone"!

Friday Favorites

  Today I'm linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for the first Friday Favorites of 2025! Over the past three weeks, I have thoroughly enjoyed getting to spend more time with Wrenley. She is growing up so much. She is speaking in full sentences and is a clown to boot! We've enjoyed lots of naps in BeBe's bed, playing with baby dolls (one of her favorite things), and since I have to pick her up before 7 a.m. on the days she stays with me, we enjoy getting her favorites: donuts (nonuts) and hotcakes from McDonald's -not at the same time though! Snug as a bug in a rug! She loves her Ky Ky Another favorite is a clean kitchen! We have had our house in a bit of chaos like I'm sure everyone else has with all the holiday festivities (and with Carl being off). I am glad to have everything in its proper place! That ray of sunshine is therapy for my soul! The next thing on my favorites list is Carl's chili. We had it last night and will probably have leftovers for a few day...

Friday Favorites

 Happy January 74th! Ok but really, why does January seem to go on FOREVER?! Today I am linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for Friday Favorites! This was definitely a favorite moment from this week!  Our 47th President, Donald J. Trump! Since Monday was also MLK day, I had the pleasure of watching sweet Wrenley.  Celebrating my niece, Ellie Kate's 15th birthday was definitely a favorite! I also watched Wrenley on Wednesday because she was a little under the weather. She had fun playing and getting lots of ice cream and popsicles! Wrenley will always be my favorite. On this day she wanted to "work" like BeBe. She's so precious, even with her little bedhead! Good Music is a favorite. Play some old-school country music and we are golden :) My favorite meal this week. It seems like forever since I made a home-cooked meal! Cajun baked chicken, corn (because Trey loves corn), broccoli, mashed potatoes with white gravy, and rolls were on the menu, and every...

Wednesday Loves

Wow, I can't believe it's Wednesday again!  Here are a few things I'm loving this week: I absolutely love this cute little cupcakes. I want to try and make them soon :) I'm loving this idea that came from Merideth .  Trey and I are going to make it for his first day of school.  I know his teacher very well, since both of the girls had her :) I love this Razorback plate from the Magnolia Lane Collection that I got me for my birthday! WOO PIG SOOIE!! And finally, I'm loving my grandmother, or as my kids call her, Grammy. She will be turning 76 on Friday, and I am so blessed to have her be an active part of my life, and my kids lives.  We love you Grammy! What are you loving this week? Beth
