Cathing Up

Whew! It's been a busy couple of weeks and my blogging has suffered. So, I'm just going to hit the highlights here and then move on! :)

*My Mom and Dad came for Fred's funeral. It was so good to have them here! Thanks Mom and Dad!

*My sister was here this past weekend from Indy. with her five kids. They came for a gymnastics meet that her boys, Josh and Garett, participated in. It was awesome to be able to watch them. They both went home with a slew of medals. :)

*We attended our first hockey game ever........soooo much fun!! Want to do it again!

*We've looked at a few houses. Considering moving closer to school and work.

*Jacob to the rescue twice in a week. I took Mom and Dad out driving around the morning of the funeral and managed to get the van stuck when going off the beaten path. Talk about stress on the morning of the funeral.. ugh! Jacob was all about coming with Tom to "rescue" us! ;) Then Terrie's tire blew out on the highway shortly after she left to return home...Daddy and Jacob to the rescue once again! LOL!! They stayed another night and returned home with a brand new tire....two actually.

*The weather has been CRAZY!! Freezing cold with good snow accumulations for a few days followed by 50 degree weather for a day or two. This pattern keeps repeating itself........water is HIGH!

*Made a trip to Chicago to pick up Mike, Tom's brother , from the airport....Tom just took him back to Chicago this morning....Bad weather both trips! It was great to have Mike here for the past few weeks!

*Tom went to Louiville, KY for work and was able to visit the place where they make the Louiville Slugger bat while he was there. The boys would have LOVED it. They ARE enjoying the little miniature bat he brought home.

*Isaac just visited the doctor yesterday and has very enlarged tonsils and fluid on both ears. They did an X-Ray to check out his adenoids yesterday. We will likely be referred to a ENT specialist and will probably be facing surgery for him soon. Adenoid and/or Tonsil removal and possible tubes in his ears. Glad we have an answer though to what is affecting his speech!

*The kids have been on numerous field trips these past few weeks. Heidi spent a day at the high school she will attend next year. They matched each visiting student up with a freshman and they spent the day together....attending all classes with them. She will sign up for her freshman courses on Monday....:-O

*Jacob is enjoying basketball. He will play at the halftime of the JV Game on Thursday night.

Those are the highlights! :)
Love,
