Busy week

This has been a busy week! The kids had no school on Monday for Veterans Day, so we did some Christmas shopping. The Vice President came Monday night and left on Tuesday. They had to cancel the last half of school because of the flight line shutting down...so they just had their Walk/Jog-a-thon that morning. Tuesday night we baked like maniacs. And Wednesday was PWOC...and we were exhausted. Today was more baking and tomorrow is the memorial for an airman who died on base. I am helping at chapel for that...which was part of the baking. 

We really liked her hair on Sunday!

I’m thinking she may have some sort of allergy. This is from the bandaid from her flu shot. Bandaids have tended to do this to her....which is unfortunate because she loves them.

We stopped at McDonalds for lunch in the middle of our shopping on Monday. Honestly it is so much more stressful to do anything here (foreign country and all) and I just haven’t been doing much since my surgery, we should have just come home after lunch. We were tired. From now on we will just do one store at a time.

They posted this on the base FB page. Some of my friends got to meet them! 

Johnny is one of four fire fighters that San Angelo sent up to CA to fight the fires. They are really bad right now. 

This is from my friends FB page. This is Beale. It is so bad they cancelled school for the rest of the week.

walking at the walk/jog a thon. This was before she saw me.

Making pfeffernusse. She was in charge of dumping the flour in the mixer. 

She wanted to make something. She got out sour cream, lime juice and something else. I told her no. I said that from now on if she wants to cook something she has to have a recipe. I even showed her how to get on Pinterest to look up recipes. Well, while I was making dinner she found one...cookies. And I did tell her she had to have a recipe, which she did.  So we made cookies. We must not make cookies very often, because when they came out of the oven she said, “they look like cookies!” So we had milk and cookies for a bed time snack.

Oh, Polly. She was throwing up tonight. 

She is currently sleeping on Emma’s couch in the living room. She has 2 blankets and some “tea” right beside her. Hopefully she feels better in the morning.
