It's been a long, but good weekend. Libby and Cameron got here after the boys were asleep Thursday night. We got up Friday and took all of the kids to the zoo. It was a perfect day for it too. It was warm without being hot and it wasn't crowded at all. We were able to let the older two walk on their own most of the time, which is alway a plus with Corban. After Corban woke up that afternoon Johnny took him to get his stitches out. He did amazingly well. They still had to papoose him, but I don't think that he cried at all. When he got home though, he was sick. He had been working up to it for a while, but it finally hit him. That was a rough night, because both of the woke up quite a bit, but by the next morning he was feeling much better. Saturday we took everybody to JCPenny to get pictures done. We're planning to surprise John and Paulette with them this year. That was in interesting experience at best. The studio was crowded with other appointments and the kids weren't in the greatest mood. When we were trying to get just the 4 of them there wasn't a single shot where all 4 of them were looking at the camera. We finally did a whole family picture and those turned out OK then Libby and Cameron did some of just their family. After that it was lunch and back home for naps and Libby and Cameron packed up to head home.

This morning I have kept the kids home from church. I don't want to spread around whatever we've had to all of the other kids in the nursery. We also had to cancel a cookout we had planned for this afternoon. I've looked forward to doing this for a long time, so I'm bummed that we've had to cancel, especially at the last minute. I figure though that the parents would rather have plans cancelled than to let their kids get sick.

We don't have big plans for this week, but this weekend is a Celebration of the Restoration movement here in PA. Funny that the two places we've lived since we've been married are 40 minutes away from major restoration centers. So, our weekend is pretty busy with that and Johnny's parents are coming in for it too. Then he's got his minister's appreciation dinner next week and the next Friday is an Art Bush concert here at church and the next weekend I'm headed to KY!
