SNOW!!!

Last week was a stressful week here. My dad was hospitalized and almost died because his organs started shutting down. He said that the doctors said that this was due to an infection that was throughout all of his body but he didn't know what the infection was called or what caused it. I am suspicious that it is something more. He is now out of the hospital and home but we are in a constant state of worry. So we have decided to come home for the whole week of Christmas so we can spend more time with him. On a lighter note it snowed yesterday and was absolutely beautiful!

A Special Visit

Over Thanksgiving my brother and parents came for a visit. We had a very relaxing time. It was nice to cook Thanksgiving dinner at home. It was a pretty eventful time though because we went to
Black Friday sales. Now I do not normally go to these sales. Adam really enjoys this day which is odd because he does not like to be around big crowds. I asked him why he enjoyed it and he said that he just thought it was fun. Well, I can tell you that I do not find it fun. The people are really rude. In our Wal-Mart a pregnant lady was punched in the stomach by another lady (lady is too nice of a word for her-I have a few others but I won't mention them on the blog) all for a scooter. It seems to bring the greedy and ugly side out of many people. I have to remember that there are still plenty of nice people on that day I just have to strive to find them. Anyway, this is the first year that Austin went with us and boy did he get his eyes opened. He was ready at 5 am to go home. I was ready before that. I am not sure that I will go next year. We will see:)
