I'm Coldiiiiieeeee...........

My body has finally decided to succumb to this horrible cold that my children have been passing around for two weeks. For the second Sunday this month, I was dressed and making breakfast when I discovered Camille running a fever. The Sunday before, same story with Olivia. Then, this morning I woke up sicker than a DOG! So I decided to blog when the cold meds kicked in. This is long, but some good pictures.

This is Olivia after we discovered that Camille was a NO go to church. Brandon had already left, so she was all dressed up with no where to go:(


My incredibly handsome husband!

Olivia is proud of a receiving a book not about a pig.


Spreading the germs, I mean cheer!


Look what kids do when your not looking.

Thanks for the boots Queenie!
