Just Stuff…

Teens' Involved went really well and all of our entries but one will be going onto Regionals which are in Crawfordsville, IN, on April 12th. It was an exhausting day, but I am so proud of all of our Word of Life kids. They really put their heart in their performances and did such a great job for the Lord. That night we ordered Pizza Hut for dinner because there was so way after that long day that I wanted to cook dinner. Jared still was running a pretty high fever so he ended up staying home. I know how badly he wanted to go, but it was a good thing he stayed home cause he said he slept most of the day.

Sunday he still stayed home from church in the morning, but by the time we got home he wasn't running a fever and was feeling much better. I let him play with Brandon in the afternoon and then he went to RUSH that evening, but it turned out that by the time he got home from RUSH that he was running a fever again! I was part of worship team on Sunday and it was quite a hard one for me. We actually sang 2 songs for call to worship and then sang 3 more for worship team time. They were really great songs, but two were brand new so that made it a lot more challenging for me.

Monday even though Jared was still running a low grade fever we decided to take him to get his hair cut because it needed it SO bad. I don't think his hair has ever been as long as it was this time. Afterwards we went to homeschool bowling and then ran some errands. By the time we got home, he was pretty tired and still running a low grade fever! When we got home, I was surprised to find Mark curled up on the couch with a blanket…guess who is sick now?? Yes, Jared passed it onto Mark and he has been home from work for the past 2 days and I am not real sure that he will be going in on Thursday either. It is the same thing Jared had…just a fever which I assume is all viral.

Tuesday we had a bit of an accident. When Braden's grandpa dropped him off, when he backed out of the driveway, he hit Adam's car!! Thankfully it was only the mirror and actually the mirror itself is okay, but the case is nearly cracked in half and is dangling. We dropped his car off at Jerry's place tonight on the way to church and he is supposed to get it fixed tomorrow. Adam is not thrilled about driving our van to work, but at least he has a way to get there and I don't need take him.

Last night the boys had a 4-H meeting and I had to go and sign their sign up sheets so afterwards I went and ran some errands. It was really snowing and the roads were icy underneath and we saw a van turn sideways in the road in front of us. That was kinds scary, but nothing else happened, thank goodness.

Mark still wasn't feeling well this evening so he stayed home from Word of Life and since he had the lesson and Scott wasn't prepared to teach we did Quiz Blitz for the evening and the kids had a lot of fun with it.

I guess that is all for now…time for me to get my pjs on, pop some popcorn and go curl up on the couch with my book and my puppy!
