Weekend update

This post doesn't have an exciting title, but I have not been feeling well this weekend, so pardon my lack of creativity!  Friday night we had some friends over for dinner, which was fun, but I wasn't feeling so great.
Saturday, I spent the day on the couch all day. Today, I've spent most of the day between the bed and couch.  This is unlike me. Even when I have a cold, I still function and get things done around the house.  Not so much this weekend.  Avery has been kind to do the dishes for me and eat leftovers!  This afternoon, I finally took my temperature and I do have a fever.

In the midst of spending Saturday on the couch, Avery was gone working all day. Isabella spent 8 hours at a Red Cross babysitting course and got her certification!  I am so proud of her as she begins doing something she loves...caring for kids.  She is my one who wants to adopt a lot of kids and be a nurse.  This class was perfect for her loving, nurturing skills God has blessed her with.  My sweet friend took her and picked her up for me so I could stay home and rest.  Her daughters, two of Isabella's closest friends, also took the class.  Another sweet thing about the class is that this meant so much to Isabella, she paid for half of the class with her Christmas and birthday money.

Yea Isabella!

Brook, on the other hand, was living it up at Aunt Lynn's house.  My sister, Lynn, has been wanting to spend a weekend with Brook and her cousin, Eden, who is my brother's daughter, and just 6 weeks older than Brook.  She spoiled them and they had so much fun.  They got in the hot tub several times, had their nails done, doughnuts in bed, movie, dance party in Lynn's den, church, and out to eat.  It reminded me of when I use to spoil her kids before I was married (although I was probably never that great!).  It was nice to have a quiet Saturday.  Brook and Eden are now at our house to spend the night and we will take Eden to meet her  mom tomorrow.

Say a little prayer for me that I feel better. The last time I remember having fever was when I was in the hospital with Brook, 7 years ago.  Thank you friends and hope you had a great weekend!
