But it started off so good...

Well the week started off great! I was over the horrible virus I had the Thursday before and both girls were still well. On Monday we went to the Pumpkin Patch with the MOPS group. It was quite a challenge to get a picture of the girls together since Campbell was not real sure about sitting near the pumpkins. She warmed up to the idea a little once she picked out her little pumpkin to take home. They both had fun decorating a pumpkin sugar cookie and listening to the storyteller at story time. It was such a cute place. I never even knew was there when I was in college here. Kaylee had a fun time with her friend Ethan. They chased each other and played a little baseball too. After a quick lunch we were ready for naps and a calm evening.





"I really do not want to be here."



"Is this good enough? I really want to go play."



"What am I looking at?"
"We really like the little pumpkins:)"



Of course that night the virus hit Campbell at around 11:00pm. I felt so sorry for her because she has never been sick like that before. She did not know whether to cry or just sit there in shock. Around 1:45am she went to sleep in her bed. At 7:00am the next morning I called in a sub for me and sent Cary off with Kaylee for school. Campbell seemed to be fine all day so at least she had a quick virus.

Cary went to San Antonio for business on Wednesday night and as things go around here Kaylee got the virus at around 11:00pm. Unfortunately she had the worst virus so far. She was sick every hour on the hour till 7:00am. By the time morning came I was dragging but Campbell was ready to eat and play. I once again called in a sub and then called my sweet friend Lindi to take dinner to some friends of our since I obviously could not. She came by the house to pick up a few things I was suppose to deliver with the food and even brought me coffee and a doughnut. Let's just say that I was really missing my husband. It was a very long day. Lindi again came to my rescue by bringing us dinner too. (Thank you so much sweet friend.)

I was so excited when Friday got here:) Cary returned home, I got to get out of the house for the first time since Monday, and we all got some sleep.

Kristen-
Cary got it this morning. I used cleaners all over the house before he got home on Friday...it must be one strong bug.
