Logan's Scare

So as we are out of town for my Birthday getting on the elevator and I get a call from Brad saying Logan has had a seizure and he is going to the hospital.  Let me tell you how helpless I felt.  This was the worst feeling in my life.  I know Tim was feeling the same way.  And I felt terrible for Brad and Diane that had to call me and tell us this news.  I can't even imagine what that felt like.  I will forever be indebted to them.  Since I was hours away from being home.  I called all of our family and had them get to the hospital and be by Logan's side as they did all the tests and procedures and to make him feel loved and safe until we got there.  Also, we had a blessing given to him.  After I knew the blessing was given I had a sense of relief come over me and I knew everything was going to be just fine.  We love our families so much.  Thank you all.
Well Logan is doing much better after 2 1/2 days in the hospital and a week off school.  He is back to bugging his sisters and running around the neighborhood just how we like him.  I do worry a little bit more about if he is feeling and of course he just looks at me like what is the big deal.  He doesn't remember any part of his seizure just the drivers name "Tim."  This was a incredible scary thing for our family to go through.  I would like to say it brought us closer as Logan and Allie are picking on each other.  But, I know it has.   

40th Birthday

So for my 40th birthday Tim took me to LA for the weekend just the two of us and we stayed at La Montrose Hotel.  This is a great little hotel.  Would stay here again.  Then Tim took me to see Wicked.  This is the best play I have ever seen.  Everyone must see Wicked if you get a chance.  Then we went back to the hotel and had a great dinner.  It was just a quiet time together.  I got to sleep in for the first time in I can not tell you how long and it was great.  So thank you to my family and friends for helping Tim and I go away for the weekend.  It means more to us than you will ever know.

Valentine's Day

Let me tell you how wonderful day I had today.  First Tim took the day off so he can spend the day with me.  I went for a quick run, gave all the kids a quick valentine and sent them off to school.  Then Tim and I went out to lunch to Pink Taco (great place).  Then off to the mall.  What a blast.  This is just one of things that I love about my husband is his willingness to take me shopping and stay with it as long as it takes.  We just have a blast together.  
After getting home Meghan was off to the movies and she asked her sister to go with her.  I was so excited for them.  I just hope that they will start to understand how important there are to each other.  Just one more great gift today.    
Lastly,  Allison got a special gift from someone (a boy) it was a heart shaped cake he made for her.  He put it by the front door with kisses all around it and rang to doorbell and left.  We just had a great time with her.  It was very sweet.....Great cake also.  
Just wanted to write about my great day.  Now Tim and I will be off to LA to see Wicked this weekend....
