We went to Sacramento and Stockton this last week to visit with family. With Hailey getting sick at church, we were worried about going. We all woke up Monday morning feeling great, so we decided we were still going to go! Well... Matt and I ended up getting sick while we were there. We pulled in Monday afternoon, and we were sick Monday evening...
I hate being sick . . .
Not that I think anyone enjoys being sick, but I really hate it. I feel like I am doing NO good to the world, and to make matters worse Landon started getting sick too . . .
THE ONLY good thing to my baby being sick along with me is that we just chilled together. I love that he will just snuggle up with me for hours!! We ended up getting my sister Sharon sick too. I hate being the one to get others sick. I won't take my kids out when they are sick, and I won't go out if I am sick... Does anyone know how you can tell if you are going to get sick ? ?
Anyways, we enjoyed our time there!!
I took all my projects that I needed to get help with. My mother is like Martha Stewart, I LOVE having someone who can fix anything!!
I needed to make Landon's long sleeved Church shirt into a short sleved...
I needed to repair Hailey's Tinkerbelle Chair that ripped in the seat...
Matt wanted to add belt loops to his HOT boardshorts because they were a little big...
and I needed to fix my ONLY jeans that fit before they got a big whole next to the pocket on the butt.
We did it all AND got our Taxes done! My dad (the accountant) helped with that one!
And what is even better is that we made THIS also...
check out this purse...
I picked out the fabric, and I think it turned out GREAT! ~
The inside has all kinds of pockets. The ones that are empty in the picture hold diapers and wipes!!
Thanks Mom for the adorable purse! It cost less than $6.00 to make! My mom had made one for herself, and I saw it and told her it was cute. She said "We'll lets make one for you!" LOVE IT!
We also went to one of Preston's Baseball Games.
He is currently the only Sophmore on the Varsity Team. He is a good player, and really enjoys being on Varsity. His batting avg is .333 which is pretty good. We look forward to hearing how the rest of his season goes. The game we attended was a Pre-Season Game vs. Marysville. Natomas won 14-9. Had I been feeling a little better I might have taken some pictures from the game. We were glad to get a chance to see him play! GO NIGHTHAWKS!
After the game we headed straight to RED ROBIN for dinner! YUMMMMMM!!!
Because I was still feeling a little sick I got the French Onion Soup and Salad Dinner. That REALLY hit the spot! My mom heard what I ordered and got the same! We REALLY enjoyed it! ~ TRY it next time you go!!
We really enjoy our time when we visit my parents. They love seeing the Grandkids, and love seeing us too!! My mom had purchased The Princess and The Frog and the kids enjoyed watching that together . . . can't you tell??
THANK YOU ANDERSEN FAMILY FOR A GREAT TRIP!!

Yeah, I totally feel dead to the world when I'm sick, I HATE it. It sounds bad, but I would much rather have sick kids then be sick myself. Because then I actually feel like I can care for them and hold them and be coherent. The worst though is when we're all sick, and all I want to do it lay on the couch and sleep and the kids are both crying for me.
I am HOPING this winter gets over fast so nothing else comes up in our family!
I can always tell when I am getting sick...my lymph nodes swell up and hurt. I think Steven thinks that I'm crazy when I make the announcement, but sure as rain, within a day or two I'm in full blown flu or cold mode.
Isn't it amazing how the kiddos eyes will glaze over while watching a movie. Ah, the joy of the DVD player...greatest invention since the VCR!
