What a weekend....

So after a very crazy weekend I finally have time to sit down and share about it.

Where do I begin....oh the beginning.

Thursday night late (more like Friday morning early, 2am.) my brother and sister-in-law came into town with my nephew, Kyler. Aren't they cute?

Friday morning started early.....I mean way early, like 6am early! We had a lot to get accomplished. My brother, Buddy has accepted a job here and he had an appt to get things squared away for him to get started. My sister-in-law, Moe had a job interview. I had babysitting duties that also turned into chauferring duties, with Hayley and Ty in tow, of course. So we set out to get those things accomplished. We were delayed twice by Kyler projectile vomitting milk all over me. It's a good thing he is cute because I don't like milk, vomitted milk is even worse. Then on the way into town he gave back some apple juice. You can just imagine how that melt in my vehicle. God love him! We met up with my Mom and my sister for lunch after everything was complete. We attempted to starve Kyler in an attempt to better his belly but he would have none of it. So he ate. Fortunately, this didn't backfire on us and all was kept down. Saturday morning Hayley had her 4-H chicken show so again, an early morning. I had to go into work Friday night so after 3 hours of sleep we were up and at 'em, again. When my sister in law went running by me to the bathroom I knew there was a problem. It turns out Kyler didn't drink bad milk, he had a stomach bug. And he shared. With his Mommy. So Hayley and I started out the morning by ourselves. Saturday was also Kyler's 1st birthday!! Here is the happy birthday boy!!So Hayley and I go to the show, everything went well. The judges didn't really look at Hayley's chickens but the buyers did. She sold them for $11 each, one of the highest prices there. Then she cried. Not moped. Not teared up. Not shed a tear. She CRIED!!! I cried (I am mushy like that plus sleep deprivation). She was good right up until they said "sold!" Then the waterworks started. She kept walking from me to her cage and back. She kept petting them like they were puppies or kittens or something.

As teh show comes to a wrap the rain starts. Not a drizzle, not a sprinkle, RAIN and lots of it. We have been dry so it was a welcome sight had we NOT had so many outdoor activities planned for the rest of the day. So after wrapping up the show we headed to get Ty fitted for his football uniform. Pads issued, helmet fits, and uniform in the bag we rush over to the lake to register Hayley for a fishing tournament. Initially it was supposed to be Hayley, Ty and Kyler fishing but due to the rain we decided to enter the boys for fear that they would be miserable and make everyone else miserable. They aren't quite the avid fishermen Hayley is, yet anyways.
So it was a 4 hour tournament with weigh-in at 7pm. Ty swam for a little while and then we went home to get some things done before heading back to the weigh-in. There was a 3 fish limit but when Hayley got back in they only had 1 fish. They had a great time on the boat so they figured they would weigh it out and see what happens.

As it turns out most of the teams only caught one fish. So we weighed in at a whoile great big 1.27lbs. Which also turned out to be not too shabby! She placed 73rd out of 400 teams. It paid $100!!! Where were these tournaments when I was a kid??

We all had a really great time, well except for Moe I guess. She was still puking. We went home and I fell into the bed, what everyone else did I am unsure. I was TIRED!!

Sunday I got up to find that everyone else had started the puking. Moe and Kyler were all smiles though. I felt fine fortunately. We had planned to go to church and then head down to the lake for a birthday party for Kyler. Well with everyone puking we medicated with emetrol and pepto bismol and called the remaining party guests to give the warning. Everyone decided to come anyways. So we went to the lake. Ty puked before he left home, Hayley puked on the way. This was looking to be a rocking party. One for the books for sure! We were having a good time, as good as could be expected anyways. There was plenty of food for those that were able to eat it and boy was it yummy. About an hour after we arrived my sister passed out, EMS was called, a trip to the ER to be rehydrated and drugged up for the vomitting. That crashed the party for sure. We packed up and headed back to the house. We decorated the dining room and decided Kyler was going to get his party and whoever was there and could eat the cake, fine that would work.

This has gotten really long and it is late so I am going to end here. I have some great pics of Kyler's party and some other things we did this weekend. The stomach bug has left, all of the sheets have been washed and lysol has been sprayed on everything, mobile or not. More to come on this crazy weekend later and school is fixing to get under way here so lots more on that too!
