We had another busy week here for summer break! The kids had swim team each morning and their first swim meet on Thursday night. Abby got sick on Thursday morning, she threw up and then was acting fine all day long. Friday she woke up and was fine until about 11 a.m. when she started burning up with fever and then threw up again, then had a fever all night. Saturday she started feeling better.
I found some pics that the kids took while camping before they all got sick...
One project that I wanted to get done during summer break was painting Abbys room. The only wall I painted in this room was the dark blue accent wall because it used to be Jacob's room. The other walls are a pale blue. These are before shots...
I got my first pair of new glasses in a few years! I wear contacts so I don't wear glasses very often, but mine were starting to bend and I was scared of them breaking.
This week we went and saw a play at the library, the kids really enjoyed it. It was put on by a children's theater group.
Here are the after shots, I painted her room the same color that the rest of the house is in, Benjamin Moore's Revere Pewter because I love it so much. It's a very neutral gray. Yes, Abby is still in her crib. She has yet to try and climb out so I'm holding out as long as I can. She sleeps so good in it!
I got some new curtains for her room and got some wallpaper cutouts to accent the curtain color.
She loves to play in her crib whenever I'm cleaning her room.
Here is my Dad with his two brothers on my Uncle Bob's birthday. Uncle Herb on the right and Uncle Bob sitting in his wheelchair. My dad has been faithfully driving up to Jackson almost weekly/monthly to check on Bob for the last several years, taking him out to eat/visiting with him/running errands for him. Jackson isn't near by, so this has been a sacrifice on my dad's part. My dad has a very selfless/generous heart. I've never met a kinder, more giving soul. I am so grateful to call him my dad! I'm sure his parents who are in heaven are just feeling so grateful that he is taking such good care of his brother/their son. Love you Dad!
I found this table at goodwill for $5 and had to have it!
We found a "free" bag on the side of the road and it had a ton of books and this cute princess sleeping bag in it. Abby was loving it!
You can't see in these pics but she's obsessed with wearing swimming goggles around her neck. It's hilarious!
Haley's been helping to make these mail carriers for camp. Girls camp is next week and she is very excited!
Rick's sister Becca gave birth to a new nephew a few weeks ago! August Elias Stratford. He was a big guy, 9 lbs! Here they are before leaving to get induced...
More camping pics...
Trying to fish...
Here's the new nephew August with his big brother Clark, so cute!
Grandma Johnson was able to go up and help for 2 weeks.
Last night I was able to attend a wedding reception of the daughter of my old "preschool" teacher that I used to work under at Bush Elementary. It was fun to see her and see her new grandkids. She helped me so much when I was pregnant with Abby! I'll forever be grateful for her! Mrs. Beecher:)
Also on Saturday Rick and I went on a date to Pei Wei and then we both got pedicures! It was so fun to sit in the massaging chair and be pampered! Rick was very hesitant to go with me, but I think he secretly enjoyed it:)
