Camping Trip for Bubba

Grandma and Grandpa took Bubba camping for 3 days up in the mountains. Bubba was very excited. The limited cell phone reception made it difficult for me because we couldn't talk to Bubba whenever we wanted to. Bubba has never been away from us this long without his brother. But Bubba is pretty independent so he did pretty good.
Grandma did tell me afterwards that Bubba had a few moments where he wanted to come home. (I was secretly glad that he missed us)
Grandpa Hogue loves to fly fish and since the boys haven't ever tried it, it looks like they picked right up on it. Thank you Grandma and Grandpa Hogue for the trip.

A fish!


Bubba's feet are so big he can wear Grandma's water boots!

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.
