Flowers from a wonderful husband!

Just a quick post...John and I were very lucky the other day to go out on a date! One of our friends from the ward watched Anna for a couple of hours in the morning and John and I hiked up to the Sabino Dam in Sabino Canyon. It was SO wonderful to be able to just talk uninterrupted and BE with each other. I sure love my husband. He is an amazing man and I realize that more and more everyday. Later that day, he went to the store with the kids and got me flowers. I LOVE roses and John got me beautiful red and white roses. See photo above :) I feel pretty lucky!

Vera has been sick the past couple of days. She's had a cough, cold, and fever, poor thing. It's gone around our family---I had it first, then Anna got the cold and cough, and John is sick with it as well. Vera doesn't have a fever now and is recovering, thank goodness, but we've had two days of movies, Emergen-C, lemon and honey, childrens tylenol, and early bedtime :) Luckily I got better a few days before Vera got sick so I have some energy to help her. I can't imagine what it would be if all of us were sick at the same time. Thank goodness it's all in the family, but not all in the family at the same time :) :). Ha. Well, at least this time :) John has only two more days of PICU and then we're done! We celebrated yesterday because it was his last on-call EVER! Yahoo!!! Celebrate good times :) :) Hopefully John and Vera will get better soon!
