Spring Break

We are wrapping up the kid's Spring Break. Monday will be back to school & homework. But only for 6 &1/2 weeks, then it's Summer time. This week Jody was able to take some time off to do yard work, I mean to spend time with the kids. So we've had a fun relaxing week hanging out. The kids got new bikes, so they rode those a lot. We went bowling, out to eat, to our friend's house for a cookout, to the movie & out to eat some more. My Aunt Penny was back in town to get my cousin Cale back to Iraq. He had been home on a short leave (for my aunt's B-day) and was due at the ATL airport Friday. We got to visit with him Thursday. Please keep Cale and all the brave men & women in your prayers.
I'm sure you wouldn't be surprised to hear that we didn't make it through this week, without a trip to the Dr. We had to take Ella on Wednesday. She had not been sleeping well & had a little cold. So, after getting up every 30 minutes Tuesday night, & seeing some drainage in one ear,I decided she needed to be seen. The Dr said she had a double ear infection & that the ear drum had ruptured in one ear. Poor baby. I felt so bad. She seems to be recovering great though. They want to check her ears in 3 weeks, which works out great. Her 18 mth check-up is in 3 weeks, so we'll kill 2 birds with 1 stone. If you don't mind, pray for the health of our family. It seems that we've been nothing but sick lately and it's getting old. One good thing, we're getting into the warm months, so there shouldn't be too many more illnesses.
I'll try to post some Spring Break pictures later. Have a good day.
