San Antonio

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

This morning, we drove to San Antonio to go to Anika's 11th birthday.  The party was at 11am so we left around 9:45am.  Traffic was very light so we got there in under an hour and a half.

The boys really enjoyed themselves.  The party was at the same place that it was last year - a pavilion in a nice park.  The boys played on all the various playscapes there.  They loved it.  They didn't want to leave when it was time.

Rachel did not feel well on the way home and ended up being sick when we got home.  She thought it was just some nerves but now she has a fever.  She originally felt fine afterwards and she went to a gathering of Pink Ribbon Cowgirls.  The Pink Ribbon Cowgirls is a group for young breast cancer survivors.  One of them passed away yesterday.  She was only 34 with a young boy.  She was a participant in the bra fashion show that Rachel participated in last year.

When she got home, Rachel started to feel bad again.  So I drove the boys to McDonald's and we picked up some food for us.  Evan ate really well.  He's turned into an eating machine.  Noah didn't eat so well.

I gave them baths and put them to bed.  They did not go to sleep right away and Noah and I had a major battle over that.  He told me "they are going to put you in jail" when I told him that I couldn't wait to see him tomorrow but I didn't want to see him the rest of the night.  I don't know who "they" are, but I'm not too worried.

Evan has two days of school this week, so only two mornings of getting up early.

Until next time...
