Posin Ivy

So we have been doing alot of cutting down trees, Building fence and stuff like that in our yard. Well Geoff and I had got into some posin ivy somewhere but was not sure where it was. Well I guess Mercedes found out where it was. This was the first day when she woke up. I thought what did she get into that she has a rash all over her face. So I called the doctor but they did not have anything for that day so I made an apt for the next day. Well when she went to bed it looked pretty good. I thought if she looks like this in the morning then I will cancel the apt. Well when she woke up she looked like this.
She is such a tropper. She never complained about it one bit. She just always rubbed it. She is so good with things
This is what it looked like by the time that we got to the doctor in the afternoon. Luckily as soon as we got her on the medicine she did so well and it healed up really nicely with no scars.
We still have no idea where it is because all of the plants look the same but they really don't look like posin ivy. Hopefully she does not get into it again.

Holiday World

These are a few pics that we took when we went to holiday world This was close to the end of the day and she kept saying "No more pics Mom"
My sisters thought that it was fun to give him a mohawk.

Busy Busy Busy Summer

Well we have had a very busy summer this year. It started in June when Geoff's parents came down for a week and we rented a cabin in the smoky mountains. That was alot of fun. Then in the month of July the kids and I went up to Maryland to stay with Geoff's parents while Geoff was at NTC for the month. Then we were here for about 2 weeks and then My family came down for about a week and a half. We rented a cabin in the smokies and we went to an amusment park called Holiday World in Santa Clause Indiana. We had alot of fun. Then comes Sept. Geoff get promoted to Captain on Monday. We are so excited. Well I will be putting pics up from all of the fun that we had.
