These Days

Keith, the kids, and I participated in the CF walk here this year and we had a blast. The walk was held at a zoo this year, unfortunately, the weather was crummy. Around noon a storm blew in and almost everyone left, but Joey was set on riding the train. By the time the train ride was finished the weather became a little better and it was absolutely wonderful not having a crowd.











Clarissa has been ill lately. We took her to the doctor Wednesday, Thursday, and Saturday. Each day she had a high temperature ranging from 102 to 105. She had two strep tests, a flu test, and finally we were sent to the hospital for a chest x-ray and blood work. Luckily, everything was negative.

Shortly after we left the hospital Clarissa broke her fever and is now 100% back to herself. We were worried for a minute, but that kid is resilient. She likes to keep us on our toes.

Anyway, I had to miss one of Joey's games - the game he was awarded the trophy ball! He apparently ran after every ball and tried very hard on every play!

Let's Get Together

Finally! Surprising news! I have a new nephew. His name is Ryan Paul and I'm anxious to meet him. Being 2,000 miles away and having family not totally tech savvy means I get few pictures. :( I'm hoping Cindy or Ty will read this post and take my hint. Text me more pictures! Email me more pictures! So far I've gotten one picture from Lupe, several from Lacy, and some from Cindy. Have you heard of photobucket? Nevermind . . . have you heard of UPDATING photobucket? Get on it! It's not fair to me! I update mine all of the time (and have consistently for the last almost six years).

Enough of that (but seriously, more pictures would be nice).

Clarissa had her first ballet recital and it was ADORABLE! She was precious!







Joey started his season of tee-ball and I have to admit that I have the cutest ball player. It kills me how beautiful my kids are!
