So the past couple of weeks were kind of crazy. About two weeks ago I got really sick with this cold/allergy thing. I can't drink milk or have ice cream. For some reason whenever I drink/eat too much (which isn't THAT much) I start getting a cough and what not. And of course my health insurance just ran out so I can't go to the doctor. But I just stayed in bed and my honey got me some chicken noodle soup. Then I got better just in time for my birthday party. We had a BBQ at a park close to our house and then we played softball. We didn't have teams because some people couldn't make it or had to leave early but it was still a lot of fun. There was Mason, Kaylee, and Gracie along with me Kate and our cousin Maddie. I was most surprised when Aunt Shirley walked up and started playing too!! We just took turns at bat starting youngest to oldest. It was so much fun. OH and Mom bought me the most beautiful purple pinkish lei from her trip to Hawaii. I also got real pearl necklace and bracelet from her as well. Kate and the kids got me a very nice shower set with shower gel and lotion and bath confetti. Sadly I don't have a tub so I'll have to take that on a vacation! Auntie and Aunt Shirley gave me wonderful cards and in Aunt Shirleys was some money which I totally didn't want her to do. However it got me my memory card reader so I am very grateful. So then the next day was Easter. Mom made a ham ( I LOOOVE HAM!) and lamb cake!! After all that good eatin' we were too full to hide the eggs! So we go home and I'm pretty sure I passed right out heh and Mom wakes me up Monday morning around 6 I believe saying Kate's dad was sick and if I would watch the kids. And of course I'm always up for it. So I made me a lunch so I didn't have to eat up Kate's food, took Mom to work, went to Kate's work and got the kids then we went to Fry's. The kids played Rock Band, it was SO cute. So that's when I got my card reader and we came back to my house. It was so cool I got to upload pics from my other camera which is broken and I figured I lost those pictures forever. So anyway I ended up watching the kids the next day so Kate's dad good relax and get over his flu or whatnot. Well about the time I picked up Mason and Kaylee I started not feeling well. I ended up with this huge like fever blister and a stomach ache. When I got home I tried to sleep it off which was working for a while but then it all just went down hill. I won't go into detail 'cause it was just GROSS but it was a very horrible night for me. I don't think I've ever been sick like that. And on top of that the fever blister on my upper lip swelled up like crazy. Then the next morning I had to pick Mom up from the airport but by that time I wasn't as sick thank goodness. We still aren't sure whether it was the bug that Mason and Kate's dad had or if it was from my food I had packed the day before and left out for maybe a little too long. Either way it sucked! So once again just in time I started feeling good enough to go see my brother and sister and my new little nephew. I had such a blast! I was so happy Mom could finally see what I was always rambling on about when I came back from my trips. Oh and my goodness my little nephew is such a beautiful little boy. Not to brag but I think he really digs his Aunt Sarah. He kept looking at me and followed me around with his eyes a bit. And it may have just been gas but I think he was smiling at me. haha. I got to feed him and burp him a little bit but was a little too scared I'd break him so his momma had to take over. We got to have some awesome Mexican food while we were there as well. Pepe's and El Commodore (is that how you spell it??) and then this little place that has really great frozen yogurt. I also hung out with my cousin Anna a little bit as well which I always love to do. Over all these past two weeks have been... well.. really great yet really not great hehe. Enough yapping now I'll show the pics.
Alright so this is Kaylee, my mom, Gracie and Mason at my BBQ.
This is Auntie, my cousin Matt and his daughter Maddie.
me with my beautiful lei
The kids playing Rock Band. They each took turns playing all the instruments.  Here's Jamie when we went to New Mexico and of course they're little bundle of joy Sammy or Sam or Samuel whichever you prefer.  Here's JD walking around outside with Sammy. I think this is a really good picture.
And this is my most favorite. JD's on the swing singing to Sammy and little Sammy is loving it.
Look at this little one hold is own bottle. He still can't do it for very long but I'm sure that's gonna change in no time.
 I tried to get a pic of us together but it wasn't going very well.. but he still looks adorable!
This is Sammy on Grandma's lap looking at his Mommy and Daddy. 
Here's a better shot of them.
This is in the backyard/sideyard lol up above is a vineyard thing going on.
My MOMMY!! She's beautiful.
JD is part of a very secret part of the military called the leopard berets. Actually it's a shower cap I had just bought.
this is just a uber cool car we saw on the way back to the airport.
This was on the way to JD and Jamie's house and you can go through the mountains.
LAS CRUCES
This is just a water reserve that I thought was cool lookin'.
This picture does not do the tree justice. New Mexico is kind of dark with lots of browns and tans and what not and then there is this beautiful tree.
Top half of the state flower which is called a Yucca.
This is apparently where Billy The Kid was put in jail.. i think...
This is the other way to get to and from the airport which passes right next to Mexico and well... this is Mexico!
I promise from now on I'll try to keep them shorter!! |
