It's Only Been Two Weeks!!

 We've had a nice 2 weeks since I last posted.  It's been relatively nice weather - until today!

Three weekends ago, we went to PA.  We were able to go to Kris's 20 year high school reunion.  I hadn't attended any previously and enjoyed myself.   We were also able to go to baby Addison's baptism.  It was wonderful weekend all around.

 Two weekends ago, the kids had Friday and Monday off from school.  Ryan spent the weekend at my parents house going to the apple orchard and hanging out.  We spent the weekend watching football and going to a fall festival at the gym.

 Monday, we spent the day at the zoo with our friends, the McDonalds.  The kids always have fun together and we had to rip them away from the zoo!  They would have stayed all night!  They even got to feed the giraffes.

 These pictures are from a few weeks ago when we went to Kings Island with Toyota.  It was the first time we didn't take my mom along.  I was nervous about not having a 1:1 ratio with the kids.  But we managed to do just fine.  We split up a few times to take Ryan and Emma or Ryan alone on larger rides.  Nick is anxiously awaiting the day he can go on some of the bigger ones.  But I don't think any of them were disappointed with their day.  Well - except Emma's stomach.  She had been running a low grade fever off and on but was good all day.  She managed to wait until we got to Taco Bell after leaving, to throw up every where.

That led to the next weekend, where we all got sick at some point.  Ryan came home early from school on Friday (thanks to my friend Andrea who went to pick him up).  He threw up immediately upon getting home, followed by Nick - although I think it was a sympathy puke!  They Ryan puked on Nick's head - thankfully only water!  I came down with it the next day - oh did I mention Kris was travelling on a Saturday this day??  He did get it anyway after he got home.  And Emma ended up sick again on Monday.  Lovely.  We were thankful that we had nothing but a birthday party going on.  And could hang out all weekend!
