UCONN Women's Senior Night at Gampel!

Tonight Christopher, Shaun, and I had the opportunity to head to Storrs for the UCONN Women's Basketball Senior Night Game at Gampel against Syracuse. We had a ticket for Anneli, but she decided that Basketball games are boring and she would stay with Meme and Pepe. That was okay, I think she would have been happy for a few minutes and then she would have been bored.

We really enjoyed the game! Of course the Huskies won--which Christopher loved because he went to the UCONN Men's game on Thursday night at the XL Center and they lost to Marquette! We got to watch the UCONN Women's Basketball Senior Night Ceremony as they honored Lorin Dixon and of course Maya Moore. Christopher was impressed to watch Jonathan, the UCONN mascott, unveil Maya's jersey number in the rafters. Christopher counted 13 women players have banners on the wall!

A Day at Mystic Aquarium!

We woke up this morning thinking of things to do. Christopher and Anneli wanted to go to the Mystic Aquarium. We picked up my parents and headed down to Mystic. The kids always love to go and they love to bring others like my parents so they can show off their vast knowledge of Sea Creatures. Christopher should really work here when he gets old enough! He wouldn't have to learn too much more! :)

Tripping with Pepe!

Today we went to the Science Center with Pepe. Meme was in South Carolina and Pepe had the day off. We called him and asked him if he'd like to go to the Connecticut Science Center in Hartford with us. We have gone many times and even taken Meme, but Pepe has never been. I don't have many pictures, since my camera battery was dying, but we had a great time!

SNOW DAY!

We got a lot of snow today! The piles are getting higher and higher and higher.....pretty soon there will be no room for the snow......









Snow & Stones....

This morning school was canceled again due to snow. It was canceled the night before so we knew we didn't have to get up and check. Anyways, I was awoken early with the worst side/back pain. I thought it was just the weather because that's what happens to me sometimes ever since I had back surgery, but this was in a different spot and it hurt REALLY BAD! I woke Shaun up and told him I had to go the the ER. He jumped in the shower and the kids got ready and off we jumped into the van. We were going to drop the kids off at my parents house, but it hurt too bad and the road conditions--because of the snow storm--wasn't good either. UGH! We made it to the hospital, where my mom came and picked up the kids. It was a Kidney Stone! It made me laugh--even though the pain was excruciating, because my dad had just passed one a week or so before and I was teasing him! UGH! I'll never tease anyone ever again! Passing a Kidney Stone was the worst pain EVER!!! UGH! Lucky me, I was told I have one more.......Yippeee...... :(

YIKES! I"m Allergic to Something....

Since November I've been battling some skin outbreak. I had a biopsy of the rash and they said I"m just allergic to something. To what? I have no clue....we shall see...
