Five Days, Three Holidays

These goofballs met me at the airport

I got to Texas just in time to celebrate Halloween

with my sweeties

Jack kept loosing his hat so a friend wore it for him

 

Then they wanted me to unpack

 

She wasn't feeling great and
wouldn't leave my side

Meanwhile in Maryland

 

Will Riker

Aunt Nenni made Ella's Merida costume

 

Aunt Chel,

I slept in bed with Lily and she started feeling worse
She was coughing and weezing
so I carried her into her parents at 5am
and off to the ER she went
just croup they said, just?

 

She felt better but we tried to keep our activities low key

So mostly just hanging out

Shawn was tired the next day so he took a nap on the love seat at lunch

They both wanted to sleep with me, Why not?

Shawn heard her coughing again before he went to bed

Then they got a prescription for steroids

Jack and I were always the first up

Loved our quite time together

Then it was Mommy's birthday

So, breakfast in bed

Poor baby

 She felt much better after a shower

Get ready for Thanksgiving

She felt so good she was eating Chinese leftovers cold.



Look, a heart

Then we decorated the Christmas tree

Jack and I worked on the veggies while everyone else napped

and then we ate

and had birthday cake

the next day started with birthday cake for breakfast

 

then we got ready for church

I tried taking a nice family picture but
somehow I got fingerprints on the lens of my camera

Then out to dinner at a great Mexican place

and off to the mall

still not realizing there were fingerprints on my lens

and since they never got around to decorating their pumpkins

we thought what the heck

Then we made goo

We thought we would get away without

cutting open the pumpkins

What were we thinking?

The next morning they both got up early

so we made fruit salad for breakfast

Then we bopped around town

I got him this $1 worth of goop and he was still playing with it
when I left him at the airport

1. Old Fort Bliss

We ran into some fellow home schoolers there

 

and she got a $4 doll, go figure

off to the mall

 

 

The next morning I had to leave

They came to the airport with me

there's that goop again

It's so hard saying good bye

Until December then
