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

  Happy Friday, friends! Today I'm linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for another Friday favorites. And here they are in no particular order: Last week our preacher told us that he had a surprise for us next week.  I had honestly forgotten about it until Carl mentioned at lunch on Sunday.  Trey said he knew what it was, but he wasn't telling.  It still didn't occur to me what it could be until we arrived at church on Sunday night, and I saw that Trey had a notebook along with his Bible sitting next to him on our pew.  It was him. Trey was the surprise.  He gave a short devotion before our Business Meeting.  He did well, considering it was his first time.  He said the congregation was a lot scarier when you are the one being stared at! This is a big deal because about 7 months ago he realized that he needed Jesus as his Savior.  And that came after about 7 months of me worrying about him, while he was trying to stretch hi...

Friday Favorites

 It's been a hot minute since I've linked up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for a Friday Favorites! This is me trying to get back into my blogging groove :) I came across this little dress last year when we moved, and I knew it would be fit Wrenley this summer! It was Makena's circa 2004.  I just love it when a plan comes together.  A favorite for sure! Look at those babies. Twenty years has flown by. Miss Wrenley Beth. She doesn't look a thing like her momma, but definitely has Aunt Makena's sass! Hopefully as her hair grows, she will get Carlie's curls. We have been doing as much outdoor activities as possible.  That includes one of my favorite things...fishing! Carl, showing off his big bass. We weren't technically bass fishing, but whatever bites. It'll eat! Of course we have also been going to the river.  Our kids weren't able to go with us, so we just took the jet ski.   It has been raining so the water is a gross brown. I didn't s...
