Still sick

This is a picture an an iris in our front yard; it reminds me of my Grandmother T's house growing up, she always had irises growing in the spring and the smell and image always reminds me of her ;)

Ansley came home from school with a fever yesterday, so we went back to the doctor this morning, seems her ear infection is still there even after she finished 10 days of antibiotics, so they put her on another round of antibiotics....but....no catheter!!! YIPPEE!!! That is a great day at the doctor's office in our house. Kind of puts being sick into perspective ;)

Have a great weekend!

Two Years Ago

Almost two years ago we went to see our Texas family and friends and Austin & Eric went swimming in the "springs"....let me assure you that this water is freezing even in August!!
Here is Austin's reaction to catching his first fish with Dad, Grandad, Uncle Scott and Cousin Carter....all of whom are not in the picture as you can see....

We need to make a return trip to Texas soon!!

Sick

We have been sick for two weeks in our house, first Austin had strep throat and then Ansley has had an ear infection & urinary tract infection combination....fun fun few weeks of antibiotics in our house, and several days home from work & school. Seems both are back to "normal" and doing well

This is one of our azalea bushes blooming; I meant to catch others, but alas, I have not made the time.

Charlie, trying to show that he knows how to listen...faker!!

Austin & Ansley had a picnic for dinner tonight outside in our front yard, Austin is clearly excited!!

Ansley was excited too; so excited she could not stop eating chips for the pictures to be snapped

We moved our picnic table to the front yard so they could enjoy a change in scenery....they had a great time!
Happy Spring!!

Happy...

Birthday to Grandad....he is so old he forgot to turn his phone on so that Austin & Ansley could wish him a happy birthday!! kidding!!

Birthday to Aunt Stacey...she is the big 40!! She had a big party this weekend, so Eric & I got a sitter and had a night out with adults!!

Easter! We had an Easter Egg Hunt on Sunday at Eric's parents house....his Grandma B, Aunt Becky, Uncle Skip & Cousin Eileen were all in town from St. Louis to visit for Stacey's birthday and Easter....

Ansley came home from school on Friday with a new word.....chocolate

This is Austin showing his competitive nature...he wanted ALL the chocolate!!

If you know me well, you know there was no chocolate in any of those eggs!!!
Happy, Happy Day!!
