This is AUGUST...how did that happen!

This summer has gone by so fast, I have no idea what happened to it. First of all, we started out June going to the library as I promised we would. We took a quick trip to Utah for me to cut and color my hair, I also got Aubrey's hair colored and cut, Connor and Taylor's hair cut. We had a nice visit.

Then I graduated the end of June with my masters in Marriage, Family and Child therapy. I decided after all these year of going to school that taking a break was a great idea...so that is just what I did, I took the summer off to enjoy my family, without any homework, internship or even a class.

In July we went on a family vacation to St. George, but before that happened Jon and Renae moved to Utah...so we helped them unpack that truck...three days later we were off to St. George. We had a great time, it was wonderful to hang out with the family. The kids all had a great time swimming and playing with their cousins. The very last day we were there, I got so sick, I could not even get out of bed. I told Loren the night before on our way home from the St. George Temple, that I felt like I was starting to get Bronchitis, well low and behold by morning I felt like death. I coughed, and coughed, wasn't able to do anything that day.

We drove home, and I thought I was going to die coughing in the van on the way home. The next morning first thing I called the doc, who confirmed I had bronchitis...she gave me a zpack and cough syrup and set me home to drink lots of fluids and rest...that I did, a week later when the zpack was gone, I was worse than I started, so I went back to the doc where she told me I had pneumonia. That explained a lot. She put me on a steriod for a few days, a stronger antibiotic and I went back to bed.

My parents came to visit while I was sick, that was nice, that my mom was able to cook some meals and help me. I am so grateful for that.

After my parents left, school started back up.....

We also celebrated Connor's birthday, Paityn's birthday, Aubrey's birthday, Loren's and Parkers birthdays during that time...whew!

I'll try to get around to posting pictures..I'm just starting to feel normal again!
