Tubbs' 3rd/4th class made gingerbread houses at school, out of empty milk cartons. Everyone in the class could sign up to bring something, so we brought skittles and M&M's.
I was able to leave work for an hour to help out with the fun. It was entertaining to see a bunch of 8 and 9 year olds go crazy with all the sugar that was at their disposal. I think each of them consumed as much, if not more, then they put on the house.
This was Tubbs' gingerbread house after he left it unattended and his sister got a hold of it.....
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.
