Ouchies, Birthday, and County Fair

Last night, while I was sitting on the reclined couch, Madison jumped from the foot stool part onto my stomach. While this is normally not a problem, this time I had been talking to Emily and wasn't prepared. So, I didn't control my muscles and her landing hurt my lower back. When I woke up this morning, I could hardly move. I took two Aleve and 1 muscle relaxer.

After eating breakfast, and watching a few cartoons, we prepared for a trip to Uncle Chad's house for his oldest son, Jayden's birthday party. He just turned 6. HAPPY BIRTHDAY JAYDEN!! We had hotdogs, smoked sausage, and hamburgers, chips, homemade potatoe salad and watermelon. After completing the outdoor picnic part of the party we went inside for some cake and opening of the presents. The girls really enjoyed spending time with Uncle Chad, Jayden, Devon, Papaw Ron, and Mamaw Linda.

Remember when I told you I took a muscle relaxer? Well, we finished the cake and they were getting ready to open presents when I started falling asleep. When it was time for us to leave, Melissa woke me up and had me walk out to the van. We went home, put the girls to bed, then I slept for 2 hours. When they woke up from their nap we went down to Mamaw Kathy's house in Morgan county. I slept on the way down. Arriving in Morgan county we realized that the fair wasn't going to set up the rides until tomorrow, they were just having animal showings and other fair type stuff going on . So, the girls played at Mamaw Kathy and Papaw Bob's house for a few hours....While I slept. Finally at 8pm, I was woken up and I was finally almost fully awake. Just enough time to say goodbye pack up our stuff and leave.

Tomorrow, we are planning on driving back down to Mamaw Kathy's house and going on a few rides, seeing some animals, and maybe eating something that is bad for us.
