Sunday 5/18/08

Jessica said she didn't sleep well last night - between the noisy neighbors in the hotel, and her daddy snoring. But I also woke up once with Steve snoring on one side of me, and Jessica snoring in the bed next to me on the other side. Jessica and I slept in, while Steve and Matthew got up at 6:00a.m. and went fishing. Then we went to eat with my parents, and we all went fishing again. Jessica slept on the way home, and then we stopped by to see Mia. She even got on and rode for just a little bit. It was something she's been wanting to do, so it was one of those things that may be testing the limits, but was going to be done.

We got home at 6:00p.m., and Jessica got on her jammies and has been resting since.

The lake was up 25 feet above flood level with trees, lightposts, etc. mostly under water that shouldn't have been. A sign at a boat ramp that said 300 feet to the water was at the water. This weekend was a fun get-away. We always enjoy the water! While Jessica and I are relaxing and glad to be home, the boys have gone back out to a friend's pond to fish again and see if they can catch something this time.

Jessica's throat is starting to hurt...

It's so great that you were able to get away for the weekend! It really does mean a lot when you're sick to see something different and get away once in awhile. I'm glad you all had a nice time.

P.S. For me, the sore throat is always my first sign that I overdid and will probably crash. Hopefully, this one won't be too bad, but sometimes you have just have to have some fun and deal with the crash.

Thanks Sue. It didn't have to be much - We just enjoyed getting away together. It was a fun weekend, and we hope it did Jessica some good.

P.S. The sore throat seems to be her sign too. When she doesn't feel well, her throat hurts.
