Family

For Enrichment I taught how to make these blocks. They are super easy and cheap to make. (Here they are Kari!)

Life latley

Life has been pretty busy since June. We had two big vacations weeks apart and a little excitement in between. Here's a bunch of pictures so you can see what's been going on.

Branson/Arkansas

Mid June we went on a vacation/Blair side family reunion to Branson Missouri and Mena Arkansas. We had a wonderful time enjoying the shows in Branson, and the outdoors in Mena.

We took the red eye in hopes that the kids would sleep the whole flight. No luck. Macey was delirious with tiredness but just wouldn't lay down and relax. She finally fell asleep 30 minutes before we landed. I never want to do that again!

It was fun to see my sisters son Russell who is one month younger then Logan.

We spent a day at the water park.

In Mena we did a little pond fishing. Grandpa had the special fishing pole that kept catching fish!

Macey's Febrile Seizure

Right before our vacation to Afton Macey started running a fever. It was only 102 but I thought I'd just call the doctor and talk to them, they said if I wanted to bring her in they had an appointment open in an hour. I wasn't going to take her in, but last minute thought I would. Alan randomly had an open morning and said he'd come along. While in the doctors office Macey had a Febrile Seizure. These type of seizures happen when your temp. spikes quickly.

Macey's was a pretty bad one. She quit breathing and turned blue. There were about 5 doctors in the room and they were pretty stressed. We later heard her oxygen level was at a 60 which is pretty low I guess. She finally came out of the seizure and the doctors called for an ambulance to take her to the hospital. When she got there her temp was 106. They kept her for 24 hours and she was fine. She recovered pretty quickly.

It was very scary. I was so glad that we were at the doctors office, and that Alan was there also. What a blessing.

I love that cheesey smile!

Macey loved riding with Grandpa

Grandpa wore the kids out as they raced each other.

We hiked up to the intermittent spring.
