Chicken Pox
Funny Story......
So, Sarah woke up Tues morning with a spot on her hand that I thought was a bug bite. No big deal, but I still had Jimmy check the bed for spiders (he found no spiders). Later that morning as I took off her pajamas to give her a bath I noticed that she had "bug bites" all over both of her arms. I called the Drs. office and they told me not to bring her in because she had a case of the CHICKEN POX!
This really would have been no big deal except for the fact that her birthday party was planned for SATURDAY! So, Jimmy and I called everyone and rescheduled the party and quarantined (bad spelling I know) our house. We bought calomine lotion and oatmeal bubble bath and faithfully called everyone she had been exposed to over the past five days........
Then today I decided to call the Dr. again because the sores were not behaving as chicken pox are supposed to. So, they had me bring her in so they could tell me that she is.........
ALLERGIC TO SOME KIND OF BUG!!!!!!!!!!!!! They don't know what kind of bug, possibly fleas (even though we have no pets and have never seen a flea on her). Whatever, apparently you don't have to be super intelligent to get into med school..... you just have to be able to read one of the books that you keep in your fancy office that tells you the difference between chicken pox and flea bites.

Grateful
Ok, so Obama was not our first choice, but he is now our president and we will support him. All politics aside, we do live in the promised land and I am SO grateful to be able to raise my children in a free country. I am grateful that I got to vote and have my say. I am so grateful that I can take my children to the church of my choice each Sunday and teach them the gospel.

Superman and his Hero
Halloween
Halloween was SOOO much fun this year! I had planned on getting up early and making the kids some fun pumpkin pancakes, but they wanted mini-wheats instead. (At least the mini-wheats were healthier). Anyway, we went over to my sister Jessi's house for our usual chili and cornbread and we had a blast! Minnie Mouse and Superman had tons of fun trick or treating!
