Boy has it been a while!

There may not be much to this post. But I hadn't posted in a while so I thought I'd put the millions of people who wait by the computer for my next post out of their misery. Ha!

Well, the big news in our midst is the stomach virus. It started with me last Thursday, then spread to Shaun, and now Shaun's sister and her best friend have it. Plus tons of people from church. I'm not totally convinced mine was a stomach virus, though. It seemed more like food poisoning to me. But that's here nor there. Whatever it was, was bad!

We went to Warren Thursday night to see my family...yeah that's when I got sick. So it was not a good trip. Fortunately, Cayson had a doctor's appointment Friday and I was able to get a prescription for some medicine. (Throwing up in the doctor's office does have it's good points!) It's funny, the first thing he asked me was if I was pregnant. Suzanne, if she gets to read this, will see the humor in this. But no, I am not pregnant. I am very positive in that! (I actually took a test to be sure!) By the time we went home on Saturday, I was feeling much better. Just weak.

By the way, Cayson's appointment went well. He weighs a whopping 19.4 pounds and is 27 and 3/4 inches long. He is in the 75th to 90th percentile in everything. I got me a big 'un!

When we got home on Saturday night, we had messages from our GUEST SPEAKER for Sunday saying he wasn't feeling well and might not be able to preach. Our pastor is out of town so Shaun had to start studying, just in case. Fortunately, Lee was able to make it. Although he wasn't feeling his best. He had the bug too.

Sunday afternoon we took the youth to Winter Jam 2007 in Little Rock. It was pretty awesome. Over a 1000 kids got saved. On the way home, Shaun got sick. Fortunately we still had my medicine so I doped him up when we got him home and he slept all night and all day Monday. So Monday I played nurse as well as trying to keep Cayson as far away as possible. Amazingly, he did not get sick! The bug is still going around, so please pray that he stays well (and that we don't get sick again).

Spring break is next week. We're taking the youth to Minneapolis, Minnesota to the Mall of America. I'm so excited! Pray for us as we travel next week! I think our hotel has internet so I'll try to post while we're there.
