Lots in Last Week

We made it this far before Peanut missed a day of school. With 17 days left in the school year, he woke up with a fever. Even Buddy did not make him feel any better:( Fortunately, it was out in a day or so with only a lingering cough.

The XBOX 360 came down with the Red Ring of Death. The Big Guy and the boys were able to google the fix. They successfully fixed it! We are so grateful for this internet. What a resource! It did not hurt that it rained ALL weekend forcing us stay insided. Buddy patiently waited for us to give him attention. He's breaking in the new dining room carpet. We love it.

I read this post on Friday. The Big Guy and I decided to jump right in. We are three green smoothies in to the month of May. They actually taste pretty good. The color does vary depending on the fruit added. It will be interesting to see if we make it all month.

Day 1

Day 2

Day 3: I forgot to take a picture

In the middle of the weekend rain, the mailman came. He brought a pretty big paycheck to Peanut. He was thrilled! That ref stuff is worth it!

We faired well with the weather. The tornado sirens activated five times. Fortunately the only impact was a loss of sleep. We got lots of rain. We don't have a basement. So, we don't have to contend with that. The grass is now greener than it has ever been!

I'm sure by now he feels better... I hope! I think Nathaniel has had a lingering cold because of allergies for a month and a half! Glad to hear you guys are okay through all that bad weather. Oh, and we like our smoothies around here too- blueberries are my favorite!
