What a wild week we had! We survived an earthquake, hurricane, colds, and pink eye. And a great visit with Pete's mom and sister (they managed to escape just in time to miss the natural disasters and infectious disease)!
Loraine and Tina arrived last weekend and stayed for three nights. After leaving them waiting at the airport way too long due to a disastrous eye appointment, we spent the afternoon at a local fair. It was really hot, but Brady enjoyed watching the other kids and the animals from the petting zoo. On Monday I had to go to work, but by the looks of the pictures, a great time was had by all at the park.
On Tuesday they left just in time to miss the earthquake. It was a crazy experience, especially considering where we live. I was very thankful for the camera at Brady's day care. I immediately logged in, and laughed when I saw that kids had slept through it. Brady's teacher said he cried a little, but she thinks it was because he dropped his ball more than anything else, ha ha. Sounds about right.
Wednesday Brady was rejected from day care due to symptoms of pink eye. His eye had been a little goopy, but we attributed it to his cold. Since we didn't have any experience with pink eye, we didn't realize that's what it was. But on Thursday, you'd better believe I recognized the symptoms in my own eye!
Over the next couple days, people wiped out all the flashlights, batteries, and bottled water in all the stores as we prepared for a potential hurricane. Fortunately for those of us who were totally unprepared (unless you count the cookies I baked for sustenance), the storm was relatively mild here.
Here are some pictures from the less intense moments this week:
