Anika, the Queen

I finally have a little princess. Kelby and Tegan never took to the "princess" thing like dressing up in crowns, jewels, and dresses. They've always been the animals, but Anika has decided she is a queen. The last three days she has worn a "gown", tiara, dress up shoes, and carried a wand. When I ask her to do something she says, "A Queen A Do" or "A Queen Help" in her sweet little dialect. She can't say princess yet, but she says queen perfectly. It cracks me up. How funny that they all have such different personalities. She must be a fairy queen because sometimes she waves her wand and says, "A queen a turn a you a frog!" Hope you smile too!

I Have No Voice!

On Thursday I came down with a strange bug. I was only sick at night, but it has moved into my lungs and now I can't talk at all. I guess it is going around and lasts about three days. It is so weird to not be able to talk. The phone is pretty useless at this point. I feel pretty good though, so that's good. The rest of the family is fine. Just thought I'd let you all know. Love you!

Finally...Pictures!

I'm so sorry that I haven't posted pictures in so long. I didn't realize that I hadn't posted any at all in October and I even had some in September that I hadn't posted yet. It might take you forever to go through all of these and I don't even know if I'll have time to comment them all, so hopefully you'll be able to figure out what is happening in each picture!

There was a flood here this week and Mike was out at a conference in Las Vegas. We are no where near the flood waters, so we weren't worried, but school did get cancelled one day. The girls enjoyed that. There isn't school on Friday for Veteran's Day either, so I'll have to find something fun to entertain them with. If it is windy I won't have to think of anything because they'll be out playing in it. They LOVE the big wind. Kelby prays for it to be windy!

I got to go to a Women of Faith conference in Canada on Saturday. That was fun and refreshing for me. I needed it!

I finally have completely finished my kitchen painting project. There was one wall that was holding me up because I ran out of paint. I have the paint for the next room, but I think I'll wait. However I'm really excited to get the paint up. I have to start thinking about Christmas instead now.

Kelby has been feeling "dizzy" every now and then at school. I'm not sure what it is exactly. I was worried that her blood counts were really low, but when we went in for her regularly scheduled appointment, they were the same. They are on the high-side of low. The doctor didn't seem worried and told me to just let her know if the dizziness got worse. It hasn't, so it must be nothing. It is hard trying to tell regular kid stuff from weird cancer stuff with her.

I'll try to write more often this month. In previous years I have noticed we hardly take any pictures or do anything exciting in November. It must be because it is always rainy. We are all doing well at least.
