Yes, I have lived in this fair state my entire life....but Monday was my first trip to our state capitol in Sacramento. My 9 year old nephew and 5 year old niece were at grandma's for the day so we took them along with us for some fun. On our way we had to stop by my sister's house to drop off a gift and asked if my other 5 year old niece would like to come along.
So, there we were---all comfy cozy and crammed into our seven passenger Acura. It was about a 20 minute drive and at one point I looked at Luke, looked at all of the kids in the back and said, "Can you imagine..." and before I finished Luke cut me off and said "No I can't!" He knew exactly what I was going to say---as usual.

That Stop Wasn't On My Itinerary....
So the Hogue's made it to Florida for our first official family vacation. It was Sawyer's first plane ride....and Simon's first plane ride that he can remember. We were excited....the boys were stoked. We had everything we needed! But it seems that Sawyer packed something with him that wasn't on our checklist: a big case of pneumonia. Yes, the little fella made it almost one whole day in Florida before he started heading downhill fast. Our 2nd day in Orlando we were in the Urgent Care south of Cocoa Beach. (By the way, to see a doctor more quickly, it helps if you vomit all over the waiting room in front of the receptionist. Little tip for ya) After chest x-rays they advised us to head to the ER in Melbourne, where they eventually admitted him to the hospital. So, we had 3 night deluxe accommadations at the Holmes Regional Medical Center. The little whipper snapper was a trooper though! The nurses loved him, thankfully, and made us all feel right at home. We were going to send postcards out with pictures of the hospital since we spent 40% of our trip there...but they didn't have any. Imagine that!Hmmm.....maybe its something they should consider.
