Sickness looming

-
Natali started coughing the Sunday before we came back from Utah and of course it got worse and then Noah spiked a fever and then Kate and I started showing signs of it. I am sure it was just a viral upper respitory infection for all of us...Natali's cough got pretty bad, Noah got a high fever but the cough wasn't very noticeable and Natali never got a fever except once at some really random strange part of the cycle. Kate's fever just kept getting worse. I never got a fever just the sore throat and then the horrid cough. Kate got worse and worse. I took the kids into the pediatrician on Wednesday and that Natali and Noah could return to school if the fever was gone and the cough was controlled which it was (Kate was just in the beginning stages of it didn't seem too serious) over a couple days Kate got worse and finally Friday night refused to eat, or drink or even take tylenol and if we tried to force her she would start to choke and gag and it was HORRID! I finally got motrin down her at 10 p.m. and at 11:30 she woke up gagging again and her temp was still up. Nathan assured me if she wasn't doing better and her temp was still up he would take her to Urgent care. The ped told me being pregnant and having underlying health issues to stay far far away from urgent care and ER (because of the Swine Flu) so Saturday morning the morning of Natali's first soccer game she was extremely lethargic and still had a good fever and had labored breathing so we split up. Nathan to urgent care with Kate and I to the soccer game with Noah and Natali. Needless to say Kate had bronchitis and is still getting over it although she has finished her antibotics...and I was just diagnosed with an ear infection...figures...

Gods Hands

God's Hand I haven't blogged in a while. I guess it's time to show some gratitude. I have come to realize in the last year or so how often we take for granted how incredibly involved our Heavenly Father and Savior Jesus Christ are in our everyday life. Just because we can't not see them physically, I find that we often forget how much they really do have their hands extended and are continually guiding us.        Of course I do believe that life is all about choices. The good, the bad, the ugly, or rather determining what is good, better and best. What we choose can shape a lot of who we are and who we have the capability of becoming. We have agency. He let's us choose. But as we follow His guidance through the Spirit I definitely think He knows where He needs us better than we do. He also knows how it will benefit us and others around us the most. I believe in being in the right place at the right time.       Most of you are aware tha...

Merry Christmas 2018! I deeply apologize for the 2nd year in a row not sending out Christmas cards/letters. I just haven't had the extra time or patience to do so. I haven't been on my blog in forever and almost forgot how to post anything. I hope you all enjoy. The past couple years have brought some trials as is life. But through it all we have continually be blessed and the outpouring of love and support from those around us have made burdens lighter. We are most grateful for our Savior and His divine hand in our lives and that is really all we can ask for. A short blurb for each of us. Nathan's business is expanding which brings more travel and more stress. But blessings all the same. He hiked the JMT trail this summer/fall for his birthday that was in May. He spent two weeks with bare minimums to survive the Yosemite mountains. It was quite the accomplishment I must say. He also co-runs a flying club that people rent planes and learn ho...

CONTEST!

I sat thinking today (dangerous I know)  and decided to change things up on my blog today...who doesn't like a CONTEST! Yup...now don't get too excited. You won't be winning millions of dollars or anything like that. Now I have friends ALL over the country and out of the country for that matter. SO if someone outside of Vegas or Utah wins this ridiculously silly contest, then I will figure out something I can mail to you. If you are local or in Utah I will make you something amazing. My amazing chocolate cupcakes, or fresh baked bread, or maybe even invite you to our home for dinner (if you are local). But as I was pondering my lack of energy today. It has taken me years...I mean years to find the secret trick to getting my energy back and back quickly. Most people I know rely on I also know several people who rely on Energy drinks/Boosters I even know a few who rely on  to get them through the day do to lack of energy as well as pain. Well for me any ...
