I'm really behind in my blogging. In an effort to catch up, I'll depend on facebook, the texts on my phone, and the technology that allows me to backdate posts to update our lives. So the first part of February... pretty much sucked. Matt and I are super busy working the tie-in outage at the plant and then we were hit with the flu. First Matt was sick, followed a couple days later by Joshua, followed a day later by me. I think the picture says it all. We were all pretty miserable. Noah however was chipper and running at 110%. Joshua and Noah had both had a flu vaccine so at least Joshua didn't get as sick as he could have been. I found out that we were some of the first cases of the flu in Pensacola, the ground zero so to speak. Luckily I don't think we spread it around and kept the germs to ourselves.
Before we got sick I met up with my mom and the twins in Mobile and we went to a Mardi Gras parade with some cousins. We all had a good time. Joshua thought it was really cool. I learned something at the parade. I knew that they threw beads and moon pies at the parades, but they also threw stuffed animals, random toys, and bags of dry roasted peanuts. I tried not to freak out but was a little uneasy at the bags of "poison" being hurled in Noah's general direction. No matter, it was still a good day.
