Spring Break

So, Spring Break. It didn't exactly turn out like we planned. We always, always, always go to Brian's parent's lake house. So Saturday, I headed to the beach with Max, Miranda, Melissa, and BJ and Brian and Megan met us there after a detour to Portland. Everything was great. Sunday morning, Melissa said she had a headache, which of course I brushed off and made her get ready for church. About half way through church, Melissa's head is killing her, so Brian takes her home only to find out that she has a fever. Well, that fever did not go away until Thursday and Miranda also came down with a fever on Monday which lasted until Sunday-well after we had come home. I felt so bad for them!! They really spent the majority of their time on the couch. You would think that this would constitute a not so fun vacation, BUT, we still had a great time. With our busy schedule, it was actually nice to be stuck in the same house for the week. We watched a lot of movies and played a lot of Wii. I did take some of the kids up to Tillamook to the cheese factory one day, and we did manage to go walk on the beach and play at the park. All and all it was very relaxing and some much needed time together. Megan, Brian and I managed to not get sick, but Max did get a little fever after we got back home. Fortunately for everyone, it only lasted about 2 hours!! He is pretty pathetic when he is sick. Now we are in the beginning stages of soccer season (Sound like a disease!) Melissa is playing on a team in Springfield-yes Cindy, I gave in- and Max and Miranda are playing down here is Cottage Grove. Brian and I are coaching Max's team so that should be fun:) If you don't hear from me for a while, just assume I am driving my kids around or that I have completely lost my mind!
