We had a pretty good weekend. We finally found a commuter car for Jeff...hallelujah! No more driving the truck 70 miles a day. My dad was here and had fun helping us find the right one. It's a 2005 Chevy Malibu and only had 87K miles, so fingers crossed it should give him quite a few years. Jeff is very excited to give the truck a rest and I am excited we found something that I feel like he will be safe in. In our price range we didn't find many that looked very reliable or safe so we were really blessed to find this one.
The best part of our weekend was having my dad in town. He flew in because my nephew, Thomas, was getting the priesthood. He was at my brother's house and then we went and got him Thursday evening. We spent Friday showing him our town, our land, and having a picnic and playing at the park. The girls were really happy to have some time with grandpa.
Unfortunately the weather was miserable!!! It had been so nice and then we got a nasty heat spell last week and it was pretty hot and extremely humid.
On Saturday we looked at cars (my dad's favorite thing to do). We were happy to have my dad there to give us advice and his opinion. We also went to the Tennessee State museum and it was really cool! The girls were very interested in everything they saw.
We were very happy to have grandpa along for one of our adventures. We are hoping the cooler weather that is supposed to come this week will stay so we can do a bunch of the outdoor things on our list!
Sunday was a wonderful day! We went up early to my brother's church. Thomas got the priesthood and it was a wonderful, spiritual experience for everyone. He is such a great young man and wonderful example, friend, and cousin for my girls. We love him so much and love being closer to cousins. The girls had a great time playing with their cousins after church and didn't want to come home.
We got home and put the girls to bed. Around 2 in the morning Caimbree woke up and was burning up a fever! 103!! What in the world?? She showed no sign of being sick at all previous to this. We finally got the fever down with Tylenol and Advil but a few hours after she woke up it spiked again. Of course with it being a holiday the pediatrician was closed. I tried every Urgent Care in town and they were all closed as well. So frustrating. Since we were able to keep the fever down with medicine every 4 hours, we decided not to take her to the ER but we are obviously hoping she can be seen early tomorrow morning and that she doesn't get worse tonight. I hope we can get some answers and that no one else gets whatever she has.
Overall we had a great weekend and we are looking forward to cooler temperatures in the next few days!
