Virus Defeated

Good morning! This will be a quick update as I overslept this morning. I am happy to announce that it appears that all of the kiddos seem to be on the mend. Ainsley stayed home from school on Thursday and Friday. Sydney, on the other hand, woke up with a 102.8 degree fever on Friday morning. It seems that all of the kiddos have now made there way through the virus. For Sydney, this was a little problematic because she was supposed to spend the entire day being tested at the school. Hopefully, by getting her back into the swing of things she can finish up the testing today.

The weekend was relatively unremarkable. Of course I say that with the exception of our 11th wedding anniversary, the steel one. Lynley and I went out for an extravagant night of dinner and then spent the rest of the evening scavenging the stores of Cow town for something steel and memorable. In the end, we came up with a stainless steel sink stopper and a horseshoe. We were pretty surprised at how much identifiable steel there was to be had. But honestly, what could be more perfect for us - a sink stopper and a lucky horseshoe - romantic, huh? Regardless, the point is we had a fun time and we were still home in time to put the kiddos down to bed.

Well, I had best be off. There is a mountain of planning and preparing going on today.

With hope and purpose
