Exciting day for Austin

Austin meeting Reed Johnson from the Chicago cubs on Sunday.
Austin was excited to wear his Greg Olsen jersey that nana and papa got him for Christmas when meeting Greg Olsen from the Chicago Bears on Sunday.

David Neville is an Olympic gold medalist from our area. Not very often you can say you met an Olympic gold medalist.
Thanks nana and papa for taking Austin to meet all the athletes!!

My family has been so good to me since I have been very sick since Saturday. I finally went to the doctor yesterday to find out I have a double ear, sinus and throat infection. I've also had a high fever since Saturday (this is my first day without a fever and I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it's gone for good)

Austin has been asking me what he can do to help and Madison made me this nice tray full of light snacks. The only thing that sounded good enough to eat yesterday was a frosty from Wendy's that my wonderful hubby hand fed to me. Sounds pitiful... but my fever kicked my butt so bad I couldn't even move. The first frosty felt so good on my throat that my dad stopped by to give me another one. I'm sure the calories in those 2 frostys made up for the fact that I haven't eaten anything in 3 days. My mom is on her way over here right now with Subway for lunch and spaghetti dinner for tonight. I don't know what I'd do without my family around to help when I'm sick.

Flags, Guitar Hero and Superbowl Fun!

This is the second year that the guys played flag football at Redar Park a few hours before the big game started. They were all good sports when I made them stop playing for a minute so I could take a picture of them. They were all walking funny when they got to our house later and I've heard many of them are sore since that day.Yijie and Dustin rocking it out on guitar hero.

A few more rock stars that day...

The girls were banished to the living room so the guys could watch the superbowl on Brian's new 50 inch plasma in the family room. We soon found out that there was an 8 second delay from our tv to their tv. All the girls thought it would be funny to cheer really loud when the first touchdown was scored. Of course 8 seconds later the guys saw it happen and started cheering. Needless to say, they didn't find it very funny at all. We assured them we did it just to be funny and we weren't planning on watching the whole game.
