Sick Savanna

Savanna has been home sick yesterday and today. She started feeling sick at church on Sunday with a bad headache, and her eyes were killing her. I ran her home after Sacrament Meeting. Not 10 minutes later, she was throwing up. She couldn't keep anything down until Monday afternoon. She pretty much layed on the couch until Tuesday morning. At first I thought maybe it was a migrain but then she started running a fever, so she just probably had a bug. She finally got her appetite back this morning. She was pretty weak from not eating, had a hard time walking. She said she had Jello legs. Hopefully no one else gets it. I would have thought that today the others would have started showing signs but nothing. Maybe we will get lucky.

Soccer Farewell

Hallie & Jase had their last Soccer game this weekend. Hallie's game was Friday evening. It went great. Grama had the other kids, so it was just Brad, Livee and me watching the game. It was very peaceful. After the game, the team had a party at Idaho Pizza. Brad went to Grama's to watch the BSU game, and to be with the other kids. (They had gone over earlier to help Grama hand out fliers and to make some Fall cookies.) Hallie and I stayed for the party for a minute. She got her medal and then we left. I felt bad leaving, but ordering pizza is just not in our budget right now. But we made it up to her by taking her back to Grama's and the kids got to sit in the hot tub while Brad watched the game, and I got to read. It was nice. When you aren't at your own house you aren't thinking of "Oh-I need to be doing laundry, or dishes." I just could sit and not feel guilty.

Jase's game was Saturday morning at 9 am. BBBRRRR. He did pretty good. He had a small tantrum in the last half because he wanted to be goalie, but one of the other boys asked first. I hope he grows out of the tantrum phase soon. He throws more fits than my girls. He will probably be out the fits and the girls will hit puberty and the fits will start. I guess I better get used to the idea of at least one child being in the fit phase.

I like how this picture showed their breath in the cold air.

Jase is the short one with the black beenie on.

BOO

I got the crafty bug so I tried some blocks. These turned out pretty cute, I thought. I just used some old 2x4's and a little mod podge and paper. I used the double sided paper so I could have more options of patterns. I wrapped them with some cellaphane. No this is not my idea. I saw a Thankful one that a friend let us borrow for Super Saturday, and I was copying. This set I ended up giving to my mother-in-law, so now I need to make me one. I might have to do some for every holiday.
