I woke up on Thursday morning with a sore throat...all throughout the day it just got worse and worse and I went home from school and just slept. I knew something was wrong. I looked and my throat with a flashlight and yep, you guessed it. I had strep thoat. I was just about sure of it. I thought about my class and how I HATE not being at school but Sarah told me I needed to call and let them know I could not come it on Friday. I couldn't be around the students because it is contagious. Otherwise I would have gone in anyway. Anyway, so I stayed in on Friday and went to the Doctor. After a swab test, she said, "well, you were right" it is strep and you will be contagious for 48 hours. Sooo. Now I cannot go anywhere today and I can't go on the bus or to my Sunday school class tomorrow. I think I a going to be SOOO bored by the end of today. I cann't wait until church tomorrow night! I was supposed to go to a football party today and also to a suprise birthday party but I'll have to cancel both. I guess I can stop having my pity party now :-)
Earlier this week, My brother and I were able to visit for a little while with my Aunt Tami and Uncle Rick from West VA and their family. We had such a nice time with them. So here is a picture of My brother and I with little Matt. He is Jessica's baby...sooooo cute!!




















This is mommy and baby! Jess is my cousin.



























Ok, one more thing. As many of you have already read on Sarah's blog...We were both treated to Tennessee football game last Saturday. It all happened so suddenly. We were both at home and going to go shopping when our friend Nick called and said he had 2 extra tickets!! We couldn't believe it. It was the first football game that either of us had been to. So we rushed around and finally got there. It was a blast! Here are some pics from that. Thanks Nick!!

Umm, so I meant "hope you feel better SOON!" Don't really look at you as a son...

I'm so dumb.

Aaaww, sorry you are sick! We took Austin to the ER this morning and he also has strep. He so desperately wants to be at school tomorrow. The DR said he could go as long as he wasnt running a fever. He would have had 4 doses of antibiotics by then, so I think he will be fine. Looks like you had fun at the game! I am very glad you updated your blog!! *smile*
