QUICK Update

OK OK OK! I know I said I'd be back - but yes, this is a crazy week at school, plus getting ready for mom and dad to arrive (in less than 24 hours!)

Craftstravaganza.

Well - it came and went. I pretty much missed it all. Alice Mae was up in Big Lake with Jaime's sister. She was having a rough morning - and with the bad weather we had that day - with more bad weather on the way - it was a no brainer: Someone had to go get Alice. I spent 2.5 hours on the road that day - getting Alice and then bringing her back to Minneapolis.




Emergency Room.

By the time we made it to Minneapolis, Alice was really crabby. I brought her home, we had some lunch, and she went down for a nap. When she got up she just wasn't herself. She slept again, and after that nap, she was even worse. She had a fever and definitely not feeling good. Jaime got home from the Craft Fair a little after 5pm - and by that time Alice's fever was higher, and she was just limp. We ended up braving the sloppy (& dangerous) roads to bring Alice into the ER. Lonny met us there . . . yadda yadda yadda . . a few hours, a chest x-ray, a cathader, some Tylenol, and some Pedialyte later. . .Alice was looking more normal. (She actually was up walking around and gabbing it up by the time we all made it back to Lon/Jaime's.)


Christmas Cookies.

Last weekend, Jaymie invited me and Alice to join her kids in some Christmas Cookie Decorating. We accepted - especially because Lon and Jaime were busy opening Who Made Who (new storefront to Lon's new studio). Alice loved playing with the cats, pointing at all of Jaymie's beautiful Christmas decorations, and eating the cookies she "made."






Here Alice is enjoying Jaymie's tree - and made sure to take advantage of Joel's height to see the ornaments up high!
















Haircut.

Ok - and this week I got my hair cut again - getting beautiful for the Holidays! :)


Hope you are all enjoying the season!

don't you mean "no-coast craft-o-rama"? ;)

i think it was just viral katey. she was on tylenol and advil for the next few days and got over it. (we managed to get the fever under 100 that night, and it stayed there.)
