I feel like we have been cooped in! It seems Emily has had an illness for the past couple of weeks. We have missed Awana 3 weeks in a row. We missed Bible Study on Tuesday and then Play Day yesterday. Emily has had an ear infection and some strange rash all over her body. The Dr said it was a viral infection and would clear up in two days. She is a good Doctor because it happened just as she said. Yesterday we got ice and a little snow. I was NOT going to get out in that mess. We have saved a lot of money of gas this week. That has been really nice. Tonight I am getting out and I can't wait!!!!! We are having our Christmas Sunday School party. Steve's parents are coming some time this afternoon. God willing, next week we will have good health and good weather so we can get back into the swing of things.
