Ponies, Priests, & Pipers

With as few pix that were taken, you'd never believe what a busy week we had! To start, Bev's surgery went very well and she is doing GREAT! She now has a new ball in her elbow and will have a few more weeks of recovery but she is rebounding like a champ!

The weather has been beautiful and the kids have spent several afternoons at the new park across the street and on the back deck with Lexa's water table! Grandma and Papa came for a quick visit and Grandma got to witness both girls score at least 5 goals each at soccer!! Look out the window now... pigs may be flying!

On Sunday, the kids and Eric went to see our favorite patient, Bebe, while Tracy walked a half marathon with Julie and Becky. The kids had a hard time staying off Bebe's bad arm and Tracy and the girls walked 12 min 41 sec miles!

Kyle officially came though his bought with croup like a champ as well, however on Monday his ear drum ruptured! The poor kid never really complained and can't seem to catch a break! While driving to his doctors appointment after a few sleepless nights, Riley whispered to Tracy, "Mommy, why does Kyle have goo in his ear?" Ugh!! He was feeling much better by Wednesday and joined Tracy and Riley for her last field trip at her current school. We spent the day at the zoo and had a great time! And to top out the week before our fun camping trip, we spent the evening at the childrens museum and got soaked in the water features outside!

Grandma and her kids!

Kyle getting ready for the camp out - the kids are obsessed with their new sleeping bags. Riley has slept every night and nap in hers since we purchased it!
