Camping and the Stomach Flu

Thank goodness we got some horse back riding in before
we headed home!!  Thats the boys favorite part!



Every August we go camping with the Eagar family!  My Uncle Reuben has done a great job of keeping us close and helping us to remember all our family that have gone before us!  My Aunt Helen's family owns some land up in beautiful Alpine Arizona.  It's called Sherwood Forest! They have awesome facilities and beautiful land all around them!  So for the 3rd year in a row, we headed up!!  Well it's a 4 hour drive and about 45 minutes into it Griffin was throwing up!  Jon had to stay home for work so luckily my nephew Zac was with me to help!  He threw up 2 more times before we got there and was starving when we arrived.  I decided crackers would be safe.  Nope!  About 30 minutes later up they came!  And then again as we were all around the camp fire roasting marshmallows!!  In the morning I decided I better head into Eagar (about 20 minutes away) and get some pedialyte so he doesn't get dehydrated.  Well on the way back to the camp ground Gunner threw up!!  What was I thinking!!  So when we got back to camp I decided I better head home!  Mostly because I didn't want to get any one else sick!!  Gavin was sooooo sad!  He loves his cousins and Uncle Reuben and Aunt Helen and all their kids too!!  He is my social butterfly and the thought of missing out on something is just the end of the world to him!!  We ended up getting home around 5.  So I was gone exactly 28 hours and 8 of them I was driving!!  Fun times!!  Thanks to Mike and Cindy, they didn't make it up this year so we called to see if Cole could play with Gavin to cheer him up.  They came and took Gavin and Gunner  to Peter Piper Pizza!  They were in heaven!!  I love my family!!
This is what Griffin and I looked like most of the time!!  
Poor Guy!

If you are searching for a brand new dentist, you must read the online reviews that other folks have published. Becoming a dental practitioner needs plenty of treatment. Most people are scared of the dental professional, so when you can see some evaluations of the items other individuals thought about the dental practitioner prior to you making a scheduled visit, it helps set your thoughts at ease.
