Addison got up first this morning, but then came back in and asked for a bottle so I had to get up. :) Spent the day doing laundry, folding, Travis picked up the den for me...I cleaned up several messes that Addison had made (things I had just put up yesterday, so I was frustrated with her all afternoon). Then I saw her bedroom...oh my gosh....tornado struck it. Can't see the carpet. She got into 2 boxes of clothes of hers that she has outgrown and I had packed up and got every bit of it out, dumped out all her baskets...everything in her room was out on the floor. includings the parts of her bed that are not bolted down. Mommy was NOT happy.

Patrick and Ty got home around 6ish...Patrick apparently got sick this a.m. and threw up. Fun. He said camp was okay, but I think the getting sick ruined it for him.

I got up early this a.m. and made breakfast for Ty and Patrick before they left to go on their campout with Mrs. Luppy's class at Sid Richardson. After Addison woke up, she took a bath and got her hair fixed because we were going to go meet Mary and Marshall at the pumpkin patch; however, the weather took a turn for the worse and we ended up not going. Travis came home from Matt's to go w/ us, but then we did not go. It stormed really hard, tornado warning...several supposed sightings in the mid cities area.

Donna came over later and made the mum for Travis. I made Kathy's caramel corn recipe , kinda messed it up but it still tastes fine. I'll try again when this batch is gone! :) It's gooood!! I'M not real big on caramel corn, but this stuff is good. Sweet and salty.

After Donna finished I took her out to eat (Kincaid's) with Travis and Addison. Came home and got her to bed...and went to bed.

Patrick stayed home again today, so I took him to the CVS Minute Clinic to make sure he does not have Strep and sure enough..he does. So, he is on an antibiotic now and can go back to school tomorrow. He has a project due tomorrow on the tube nosed bat too so worked on finishing that up, plus all his homework that was sent home while he was out. What an ordeal. We don't have the art gene in our family. Dad and Linda Beck got that gene and kept it to themselves, I guess...and Linda N has the photo art gene...but my poor kids did not get squat in that dept, so lots of tears where shed when trying to draw the bat!. I told him as long as he did the best job he could do, I did not care what the grade was on the drawing portion of the project. I feel for him. I HATED drawing projects!

While we were at Cozymel's Friday night for dinner, Pat left the Kindle there and we just figured that out today, so after I got Travis, we drove back out to Grapevine to get it.

I pretty much worked until bedtime...

No work in the a.m. back to bed until I took Travis to school. Pat got up and started getting ready, but then felt sick and went back to bed. I did not know whether to believe him or not. He did not show any physical signs of being sick all day, until about 6 p.m. when he started running a really high fever. Went and got Tylenol and Motrin for him and put him back to bed.

Ty brought Tamales home from someone at work that makes/sells them, so that was dinner. I worked until I went to bed and still did not get my lines in.

Patrick missed his game against Michael's team last night...heard our team won.

TRAVIS SHAVED TODAY! First time. Definitely my photo of the day!! (I'm so far behind in this it's not even funny).
