Bummer In The Summer

Well, that caption pretty much sums up this last week.  What a bummer it started out to be!  Remember how Mason was running a fever for 4 days and puked, and he shared it with Scott, who puked on baptism day?  Well, we got better from that and decided to go to the local Rec. Center for a family swim last Saturday.  BIG MISTAKE!  Some kid apparently diarrhead in the the kiddie pool and although they shut it down, it wasn’t cleaned properly because by Monday Tuesday 5 of 6 of us were puking and had diarrhea!  It was horrible!  Somehow Scott managed to escape; maybe a reward from the penance he had to pay the week before with his illness at the baptism!  Poor Jared had really looked forward to his State Baseball Tournament and was all set to play in the games on Tuesday.  Michael took him and Scott while I stayed home puking with the baby and Gavin.  Michael text me through the game saying Jared wasn’t feeling well and that he hoped he’d make it through.  Fortunately, he made it through the first game and took one look at the post-game treat (donuts we brought), and ran to the side and hurled!  Poor kid!  He had a second game scheduled for that day, but there was no way that one would be in the cards for this little guy!  By Wednesday, Michael was on his sick bed and Jared thought he could make it through his final playoff game, so we went……and he did!  They did lose all 3 games and ended the season, but he had a great time and I’m so happy he was able to play that last game!  It was a long week…….of resting!
