this week was kind of a hard week :(
Sunday Eric headed back to laradise so he could get back to work
all the festivities were finally over.
me and madyn stayed behind so we could attend don's funeral.
monday madyn was fevering again
and she slept till 12:30 that afternoon. she was up for 20 minutes then out again.
so i decided that i needed to take her to a doctor.
after spending all afternoon in the urgent care they said she just had a respiratory virus.
that night we all went to don's viewing.
carilyn and tony were kind enough to watch madyn while we went.
it was hard seeing him.
i don't usually handle death very well, even with the perspective
that i have being a latter-day saint.
but i felt comfort knowing that just a week ago i had told him
that i loved him and was thinking of him.
i felt peace knowing that he knew that i cared.
after the viewing when i went to pick up madyn she wasn't doing too good.
she was SOOO hot and SOO lethargic.
tony, my dad, toomer, and grandpa phil all stood in and gave her a blessing.
im so grateful to have the priesthood in my life.
tuesday i went over in the morning to see tyson
get set apart as a missionary.
his blessing was beautiful, but president isom was late and so i was pushing it
getting to the funeral. it was a good thing that
they offered to babysit madyn during the funeral so i didnt have to give a rushed
goodbye to tys.
the funeral was nice. my dad spoke and he did a really good job.
the music was perfect. but it was still hard.
after the funeral and the cemetery i went back to get madyn and say bye
to tyson. we are sure proud of him and
his decision to serve a mission.
then us sisters (besides megan, cuz she had to go back to teach summer school)
went to crazy ate and had lunch together.
after that we headed over to jays house to relax in their new hot tub!
that night the kiddos were tuckered!
but they are sure cute and i love them a lot!!!
wednesday it was time for micah's family to head back home.
so me and dad went half way with her to evanston
to have lunch with her then do a little shopping of our own.
i got eric a 17 hmr ruger for our anniversary and father's day.
by the time we had finished our shopping and got back to the valley i
had a massive headache and wasn't feeling like heading back home so i stayed another night.
thursday i let madyn sleep till her little hearts content
and then we took off to come back to laramie.
madyn had still been fevering and she now developed a red rash all over
the stomach and neck.
but i couldn't get her into the pediatrician till friday.
when we got home we dropped by eric's jeep to put his new gun in
his gun rack.
we then went home to unpack and wait for him to get off work.
i was pretty proud of me for keeping this a secret!
he was pretty surprised. i guess it took him a little while before he even noticed
it sitting in his rack.
he also came home to a 5 pound bag of peanuts, targets, and ammo.
friday was our 2 year anniversary.
2 years sounds soo little when you really think about
how long we have been together.
eric had to work and so we didn't really plan anything to do since
he gets off work so late.
but mikey had planned a company picnic that night at the park
so that was fun because he got off earlier then usual.
when we got back to the house he surprised me with a beautiful
bokay of a dozen red roses.
saturday me and eric basically slept our day away getting caught up
on sleep.
that night mark offered to watch madyn while me and eric went out to eat.
we headed up to centennial and had a DELICIOUS steak dinner.
we had a beautiful drive. it was perfect.
it was a good week :)
