What we have been up to

Photobucket

Our house was hit with a nasty flu.

Every single one of us got it.

Lila must have picked it up at church because she was throwing up all Monday night. Aaron was sick on Tuesday, then on Wednesday I got sick while driving home after picking the kids up from school. Not so fun.

By Wednesday night we were all sick, even Nick who was stuck in LA due to weather preventing him from flying home.

Miserable.

But my wonderful family came to the rescue.

My mom (who called this morning, sick......so sorry Mom) came over after work to take care of my sick kids,

then later my Dad and sisters came over with dinner for all who had an appetite.

Thursday morning Nick was able to fly back and then we all stayed home and in our pajamas all day.

It was kind of fun to take a break in the middle of the week and spend the day together watching TV and playing video games, even if most of us were still not feeling too great.

Being sick really helps you appreciate how good it feels to be healthy
