Scary Morning


I don't have any pictures because I'm the one who is always shooting the pictures. But Friday morning I got up and was feeling fine. A bit worn out, but who isn't as an on the go mom. I went to my job and was cleaning and kind of felt funny but thought nothing of it. I got to cleaning and was finished with the upstairs and putting the mop and broom up and had sprayed and dusted the basement when all of a sudden my arms started to go numb (like when your hands or foot fall asleep...that feeling) and paralyzed. I called my mom and told her I needed help and then I began to get dizzy and my face started to go numb. I guess I was breathing fast and they tried to calm me down.
My mom took me to the hospital and they checked me out. I was dehydrated and thought to be low on calcium and maybe having appendix problems. Took some tests but all is fine. A freaky day and then I sleep the rest of the day. In an out when family would come into the room. I guess as a mom we try to do everything and just keep going and hope we can make it through the day and when our head hits the pillow we are out until the alarm or a child wakes us up. Onward I will go doing what I do best. Keeping up with the kids, keeping up with my husband, keeping up with the house, keeping up with the year. and trying to keep up with my expectations. WOW!!!! maybe I do need to slow down. I just don't want to miss anything. Do any of you ever feel that way? Getting better but already in the swing of things again. Washing clothes, cleaning and picking up the house and then off to my husband tournament game. Busy as usual. That's just the way I am. Running or jump roping to everything.

Carson concentrating on fishing and watching his line. He is the most patient fisherman I have ever met.

Michaela, Carson and Carlos in front of the Wyoming sign. Yes we went to WY. YEAH!!!

Juan and I in front of the Wyoming sign. We had a great time in Jackson with Sue and Curtis Halls. We camped, talked, fished, talked, laughed, ate and just had a down right relaxing fun time. We did however only catch "1" fish (The Halls have never caught less than 5 on a trip to Jackson Lake). Just one of those fishing days.

Fastpitch softball RUNNNNN to Choir concert!

Doesn't she look great in green? She likes her choir teacher and He had her try out for select choir and she made it.

Can you spot Michaela in the choir????


Following after her mother.

Michaela trying out catcher for the first time. She was hot and would have never guessed she has never caught before. She's a nature. Like mother like daughter.
YES!!! She is watching the ball like a hawk. Michaela is doing so good at catching and she loves it.

Michaela practicing with her Dad before she tells her coach she can catch. And her Dad was not at all easy on her. He throw hard and she catch about 98% of them. She is just an awesome girl.
