Sick (again)

Last week was spent as a sick week. That's how it always goes right? June gets sick for a couple days and then I take a turn getting sick for a few days and by that point we've been inside a whole week. Blech. And what did we decide to get sick with this time? Oh you know, my favorite- STOMACH FLU. So maybe I get a little CRAZY when I think about this being the TENTH time for me in two years. So maybe I'm starting to get more and more paranoid (excessive hand washing, essential oils that I don't even know if I believe in, constant cleaning, and avoidance of friends and family for a good week after they've healed from a sickness...) and all for what? FOR WHAT?! Only to get sick over and over again?! Should I become more paranoid or just give up?

*sigh

Okay.

But the point is that we still managed to have a little Christmas-y time. I mean, first of all it snowed. A lot.

Which also made it easier to be stuck inside doing a lot of this:

There was a small window where June was better and I wasn't sick yet and we had a free chance to go see the drive thru lights at Thanksgiving Point.

June and I made sugar cookies when I was on the mend from the virus- (they are pretty fancy people, try not to be jealous of my decorating skills. But in my defense I had to hurry, Buck had eaten half of them before I got them frosted!)

And after all was said and done, June got to go play in the snow and she actually liked it, much to my delight and dismay. (I'm torn. She's a kid so I want her to love the magic of snow... but I hate it. Oh well... I'll keep pretending for her sake... for now...)
