Slime Time

Its our favorite time of year.....when Luke's school celebrates for making their federal and state API goals for testing. This year his school is tied for 5th in the county amongst elementary schools. They jumped nine places from last year so I am very proud of him and his staff.
This year the students voted to slime the principal. Each of the 700 students and staff were able to load up a squirt gun full of slime and take a shot. Sounds like a lot of fun. But I think it was mild compared to some of the stunts they've had him do. I always wonder what they'll come up next year.

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.
