Vacation
Well, we've been back a couple of days from our road trip to Colorado. The trip was good overall. The ride back home was a little challenging since we were all tired but we made it through.
We got to Loveland about 7:30 on Oct 18th. Sarah was really good on the whole trip. I was amazed and proud to admit that we didn't need to use a portable DVD player. Some people had commented on how brave we were for not taking one. I thought about what I had done on long road trips back in the day. Some of my fear was that Sarah has to be in a car seat where as back in my day we didn't need one. My parents had a big car so there was plenty of room to move around.
Friday we didn't do much of anything. Shay (Jimbo's mom) and I went to the store to get the ingredients for dinner and I made lasagna (yes, I can cook and it was more than edible). Saturday took us to Estes Park for a short walk in the moutains. Sarah loved the mountains and still is talking about them. It snowed on Sunday morning but not enough to do any damage. It was a wet snow and didn't stick. We had some delicious ribs that night and started a game of Phase 10 (that we have yet to finnish-but who knows when). Caly (my sister-in-law) had Monday off from work but had an interview for a different position within the company so we went to Fort Collins and did some shopping. On the way home we got some pumpkins for Sarah to help carve.
Tuesday we got a later start than we should have and only made it to Lincoln rather than Council Bluffs. We ended up in Madison on Wed about 7pm. I took Sarah to urgent care when we got home because she had developed a horrible cough that was keeping everyone up at night and she was complaining that it hurt to cough. We were given cough syrup and amoxycillin and she's doing much better.
I, on the other hand got sick on Friday and am dealing with sinus and flu symptoms. I hope to be back to work tomorrow but we'll see.

Please stop...
Just recently this link was posted on MySpace. Watching this video made me cry like I haven't in awhile (and still am as I type)...it makes me ask God "Why, why, why?!" This poor, helpless, beautiful baby...your child that you brought to this earth...why did she have to suffer such cruelty!! Her suffering may help to raise awareness but at such an expense!!! My heart just aches not only for Kelsey but how many other thousands of children who suffer and will continue to suffer. I ask you and everyone to pray not only for the children but for those that abuse these precious works of God.
