Not so fun weekend....

Friday night we had a fun girl's night out planned. We were going to the What Women Want Expo in St. George and then to dinner and out for ice cream. The expo was really fun. I started getting a little sore during the last couple of rows but figured I'd tough it out since we were almost done. It was also after dinner and I was hungry. We went to Texas Roadhouse after and I was so excited - I have been wanting to go there for a long time. I ended up getting sick and threw up twice while we were there and wasn't able to eat any dinner. We went to a shoe store after and I stayed in the car (Rachael stayed with me). Rachael ended up driving after that because I was getting worse. We stopped at Cold Stone (I stayed in the car) and then headed home. I kept throwing up, even once everything was out of me, until about 3:30 am when I was finally able to go to sleep. I kept Jared up too and he had to be to work at 8 am (and work 16 hours!). I felt bad. I was sore from walking around and trying to throw up half the night. I ended up going to my parents' house so that they could watch Crue and I could sit and relax. I was able to eat a little bit and that was good. I felt a lot better, especially by Sunday, but my stomach still hasn't fully recovered. I still can't eat as much as before and I don't want much sugar which is unusual for me.

Jared felt sick at the first of the week but never threw up. Then in the middle of the week we were at Jared's friend's house getting a helmet that he was giving to Jared and Crue threw up a LOT - and all over me. Luckily his friend was pretty cool about it. Then on my one night of fun, I end up getting it and got it worse than both of my boys! It went progressively worse from one of us to the next. I'm just glad it's all over with now!

Tonight Tyson and Rachael are coming over to plant a garden in our backyard. They are going to be doing stuff to their backyard so it's not ready for a garden but they don't want to wait any longer so they decided to do it in our backyard. I'm glad because I wanted to do one but don't know what to do and figured it wouldn't get done this year (we're only good at growing weeds). Since they're coming over to do one, we're all going to work on it and do a community one - so I'll add what I want to it and we invited some other friends to come add to it if they want. I'm really excited to learn how to garden. Tyson's mom is going to come teach us how to bottle later this year too so we can bottle some of our stuff. I'm excited to be able to add to our food storage, especially stuff that I've grown and bottled myself! I'll post pictures of the garden and hopefully of us working on it. I also got some flower seeds to put in the flower bed out front so I'm going to get that done tonight with the edging I have to go around it. Hopefully it'll do good and the front of the house will look a little better! I'll get pictures of that too when it's done.
