No...I didn't give up already! My week absence from blogging was due to illness, courtesy of my baby sister. Great birthday present, don't ya think! Since last weekend I have been feeling like death warmed over.
Anyway, last weekend was my 32nd birthday. The celebrations lasted all weekend. Friday night, we had dinner at my Mom's. Mom and Dan, Kristen and the kids, Katie, Geoff and I had a great time. Mom makes fantastic meatballs and gravy! Of course, Mom makes fantastic everything! :)
Saturday morning I watched Ryan and Ethan for the first time by myself. Whew! 3 1/2 years and 9 months. A challenge for sure! After a rocky start at Cracker Barrell, we had a great time. We went to the park and took some really cute pictures. I also got a good video of Ethan on the swings that I've attached.

Saturday night was Geoff's turn. He planned to take me out to dinner at the Melting Pot and then we were going to try to attend the Owl Prowl at the Jacksonville Arboretum. But I was so exhausted from playing with the kids (and now looking back, probably attempting to fend off this lovely plague) that we decided to postpone the Melting Pot and stay local instead. Geoff was such a good sport about me spoiling our plans and invited Steve and Katie to join us for dinner at the Palm Coast Outback. I was completely gluttonous, opting for no dinner, but only cheese fries, a couple wallabe darneds, and a sinful sundae! :D What a fantastic birthday dinner! But glutony comes at a price and I was so sick that I fell asleep as soon as we got home and poor Geoff spent the rest of the evening taking care of me!
Sunday ended the weekend with a bang. We met for lunch with Kristen and the kids, Dad, Terri, Sara, and Randy, and Steve. We grilled out at Dad's house and enjoyed the good company and beautiful day. By the end of the day though, the bug I caught from Katie was taking full charge of my body and I've been feeling like garbage since. I guess the old body can't fight the germies like it use to! lol It's hell to get old.
Thanks to everyone that helped make my 32nd birthday a happy occassion!
