Devil's Lake, Wisconsin

Last weekend, we went camping up in Wisconsin with the Randy and Lucy Spencer gang. Jared and Leslie joined us, and we had a super good time! The weather was great, good friends, lots of food, and of course an accident involving who? Our little guy that finds all kinds of disaster, Will!

I took Will to the bathroom, and since he has a major fear of public toilets, (so bad that he will hold it for a century if he has to, until he finds a potty that looks sanitary, and well lit enough) he jumped off the outhouse potty and bent over to pull up his pants, before I knew what was happening. I had set the kerosene lantern on the ground, and when he bent over, he burned his bare little hinny on the hot lantern.

It was horrible, he was screaming in pain! I just grabbed him and ran back to camp yelling for Del. We got ice on it right away, and used the numbing drops we had for his ear infection, on his backside! I still feel just awful about it! He is still so sore, and can barley walk sometimes. But it is healing. He hasn't been able to sit on a chair to eat since. So he stands at the table. Oh, I just feel sooo bad! Burns are the absolute worst! But in spit of all that, we still managed to have fun rock climbing and hiking. Even if we had to do it with Will and Ella wearing no pants, right Leslie?

A Case Of The No-No's

Lately Georgia has come down with a case of the no-no's. Lots of mischief from this little girl! Dumping out entire boxes of cereal. Ripping apart every wipe in a brand new baby wipe refill bag, throwing everything in a grocery sack down the stairs, emptying all the disgusting garbage out the sack, squirting all the lotion out of the bottle and rubbing it through her hair, and just your general, almost eighteen month old, TROUBLE! With a capital "T" and that rhymes with "B," and that stands for BATH!!!

Thank You



Thank you to everyone who has done so much to make everything easier for us during these past weeks. We were blessed for a moment to be unexpectedly, expecting. We were very excited, and we are very sad to have learned that I miscarried.

We have had so much love sent in our direction, with people willing to help out. All the way from family, taking care of our kids in California, and helping with blessings, to friends and neighbors bringing food, and offering child care for our sick kids. We have had Aunt Sandy folding laundry, and neighbors accepting delivery on our couch while I was in surgery. Thanks for being there, and for just caring about us, all of you... we love you!

Disneyland!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We spent last week in nice, sunny California where we met my whole family to go to Disneyland! We flew out a few days before everyone else, and spent time with the Spencer family, who were nice enough to take all of us, and our luggage in! No small feat, let me tell you! It was so fun to see them, and the beach! We are missing both.

We had such a good time with family all week! We love Disneyland! Thank you for the trip mom and dad!
After Disneyland, mom, dad, Shelley and Adam, and Lauren and Christopher flew home, and Emily and I, and our families took few more days and went down to Sea World. The kids loved seeing all of the amazing sea life, which I didn't get many pictures of. We had such a nice trip in spite of a few set backs, thanks to me! We want to go back!
