And Then We All Got Sick

Labor Day weekend started out great. We visited a little park called Tiny Town with some friends and had a great time. It's a kid-sized village. Some of the buildings are decorated inside and others are open for kids of all sizes to climb inside. (Yes, Brian always has to get inside with the girls)
The girls even sat still on a kid-sized bench together long enough for us to almost get a cute picture!

But, instead, we had to settle for the blurry shot the old man took for us on the train instead.

So, Saturday went well. Sunday morning was a completely different story. We somehow got the flu bug (Type A--whatever that means) and have all been knocked out all week. We didn't want to get anyone else sick, so we went stir crazy at home most all the week. Amazingly enough, the house never got too messy, laundry got rotated and we're all still alive! (Because, trust me, for a couple of days, it didn't seem like we were going to make it!)

So, here's our week in review:

Brian pulled everything out of the medicine cabinet to examine all his options.

Meanwhile, the girls (mainly Morgan) pulled out every tupperware in the cupboard to examine their options:

...and sucessfully put every duplo block inside every tupperware container. (Which mom then put every last one into the dishwasher.)

And Sadie spent much of the weekend wasting batteries on the remote control car.

We made it through the week, are all feeling much better and hope we didn't pass this awful bug onto anyone else! I guess it's back to church, work, and preschool!
