BOWLING

Yesterday we took all the kids and teens at church bowling and pizza and then we went to Kay's Castle for ice cream. The picture was taken after we ate our ice cream. The two ladies that were working looked a little worried when we all trooped in there and wanted ice cream. We had a blast! I bowled on a lane with some little kids so I got the use of bumpers!!! Too bad you can't always have those. Bayli I think bowled better than me. She had a great time and fell asleep in the truck on the way back home.

Icy

We didn't go to work or school yesterday because our roads are VERY icy! We had a great day of doing nothing. Bayli went out for a little while and played in the snow. Her cough is doing better after the doctor gave her a pill for her cough. So hopefully now her breathing will improve. Our roads were still icy this morning, but Lealan drove us to school and work.

BRRRRRRRRR!

It is so cold outside that it hurts to even go out. It was in the negatives this morning and me and Bayli looked like marshmallow people with all our winter gear. I had her bundled up in her big coat, gloves, scarf, and a hat. She complained because she says with her big coat she can't keep her backpack and lunch box and purse from slipping around. She is hot natured and just wants to wear a thin jacket. I told her it was this or frostbite and frostbite was not acceptable. This is really making me reconsider going to the grocery store because I don't want to stand there to load them in the car and then unload them at home. This morning was pretty funny when we were trying to leave the house. Our two outside cats, Milo and Gigi, have a good place to get and they stay warm, but everytime I tried to shut the front door this morning Gigi ran in and jumped on the couch. She wanted no part of staying outside anymore. I had to catch her 2 or 3 times this morning before we could leave.

First week back to work.

I went back to work after my surgery on Tuesday, but I only worked until Bayli got out of school. Then I went home to rest. I feel pretty good now. Still a little sore, but I already feel a LOT better. I wish I could have had this done a long time ago. I probably wouldn't have been as tired this week, but Bayli's asthma is acting up and she is up and down all night and coughing. I hate this for her. She is constanting having to take her inhaler and can't breathe good. So far we have been able to keep her from having to go to the doctor and get some treatments. I hope that trend continues and that she gets better soon. The picture with this is one I love from Thanksgiving. Such a great face!

Seafood...it's what's for dinner.

We just had cajun seafood balls and jambalaya for dinner! It was all good, but those seafood balls were the bomb!!!! The jambalaya turned out to be a might spicy, but we all love food that is hot. We saw Paula Deen make these and decided to try them. Well I hope everyone is having a great New Year so far!!! I am getting over a terible cold and thinking how much I don't want to go back to work next week after being off for a while! Oh well, it could be worse.
