What a Week!

What's for Dinner: Goulash and Noodles/Rice, Orange Jell-O, Mashed Potatoes (Sick Tummy Fare)

At the Sewing Machine: Do I have a machine? I don't see it!

On the Scrapbook Table: Working on September boy birthday layouts



The flu has ripped though our family this week, toppling one Stumpf after another. We thought we were all done, but Teddy started turning colors after breakfast this morning. Fortunately, the Pollards had agreed earlier this week to host tonight's Bible study.

Between the obnoxiously cold temperatures and the spontaneous releasing of body fluids, we've stuck pretty close to home. I did sing when I found out that AWANA had been canceled because of weather on Wednesday. We then decided to cancel an orthodontist appointment so we could stay home in our jammies.

Thursday I postponed Hunter's baby check-up because it seemed wrong to take an infant out in -15 degree weather so the doctor could tell me he looks great.

We've jumping back into the swing of things tomorrow. In the morning, Bryan will take most of the children to cut out their cars for next weekend's AWANA Grand Prix. We will do our part to stimulate the economy tomorrow afternoon when we do our bi-monthly grocery trip. Much needed. You can hear an echo in my fridge.

After church on Sunday, the oldest three have their first 4-H club meeting of the year. It looks like Bryan and I are going to help lead the club. With the number of members we're contributing, it seems only fair!
