Back from SEATTLE!

We had a great time in Seattle this weekend. The HAWKS lost but it was fun anyway! We had LOTS of good food and relaxation time. Just wanted to say THANKS to Allissa, Kevin and Roxanne for a GREAT dinner on Satruday nite after we flew in. It was so nice to finally meet them and get to chat. I am looking forward to spending more time with them this Thanksgiving. ABOVE are a few pics from the trip:) ENJOY!

Mom update.....

So there is not too much to report. Mom is comfortable and on a steady regimen of meds. We got her a hospital bed and she loves it. (The last one we got she absolutely wanted nothing to do with!) She looks really peaceful and has been sleeping most of the day now. It is hard for her to verbalize what she wants and now, most of the things she says makes no sense....but I just talk to her and pretend she is making total sense:) The nurses say her vitals look good....but I can tell that her body is so tired and she is ready to make her transition. She is incredibly stubborn though so........

Not much else to say. I have just been working as much as I can and taking care of grading and lesson planning on the weekends. (EWWWW...not fun.) Kris, Steph and I managed to get out for the weekend and make it up to the UNR game. It was FREEZING and almost so cold it wasn't even fun but we managed to hang in there.

Here's a pic of us before the game.....it started out not so cold but......got there quick!

Here's a cute pic of brother and sister...AWWWW

Here's us at the game....note the red faces and super red noses....COLD!!

So Steph.....I told you I'd post this! This was BEFORE we had a couple drinks! hahah....a little windblown??

Here's us after we found shelter in the jeep out of the COLD....note the red eyes and bunny ears. Thanks Steph!

Here's some divine "River Tea" at the Ruby River Steakhouse.....that'll warm you up!

Note the bunny ears again....too funny!

Anyway that is our trip....considering the stress of the family issues and my short temper I had a fun time.....maybe next weekend will be a little WARMER so we can ENJOY the GAME!
