Easter Eve 2012

Saturday started out EARLY with our annual FARA Run.
Actually this year it was a WALK.
I ran it last year...but not this year. I was just too sick and out of sorts from not runnings in weeks. Funny how not running for a few weeks (on top  of being sick) makes me feel like I haven't ran in years.
I was very happy to walk it this year with JENNY! I haven't seen her in a few years and she was off getting married last year, so she missed it.
This year Jenny, her mom, and her youngest sister Kelly got to meet Wiggy girl. We even brought Jenny a cupcake to celebrate her wonderful news: Jenny is going to be a mama!! I am excited for her. We brought her a pink strawberry cupcake for luck! :)
Wiggy was happy when Jenny offered to share it with her.


















The weather was perfect, so we made sure to have a nice long visit with Jenny and the girls. After we parted way Wiggy was able to play on the playground for a little bit.
After we got home from the FARA walk we headed home to the boys. I was exhausted from getting to bed late the night before and getting up at 7am. We cleaned up the house and boiled eggs. The kids were motivated to dye eggs, as usual. We kept it to a pack of 18 eggs. The boys managed to let the rest of us dye 1 or 2 and they split up the rest.
Happy Easter Eve! :)

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.
