Perfectly Candid.....: April 2007

Poor Kristin....

Kristin spent the weekend with us and woke up on Sunday morning with back pain and said it hurt when she went to the restroom. She started to drink lots of water and cranberry juice but by Wednesday she was in such severe pain, could barely walk and was expressing more blood than urine. Turns out she had a really bad urinary tract infection. Needless to say, she spent some time in the emergency room, got a shot and lots of medication. She had to go to class today but was spending the rest of her time in bed. Poor baby.

Match Play

Jeffery and I are driving to Albuquerque this afternoon. He qualified for a match play tournament which is different than school golf. He'll play 36 holes on Friday! If he wins on Friday he continues to play on Saturday.

He doesn't want me to follow him around during this tournament like I do for school golf because he'll be playing with "old guys, he says, you know, 25 and 30 year olds." He doesn't want to look like a little boy who's Momma has to take care of him.

Mark worked in Albuquerque this week so he'll already be there. We've decided that we'll take our clubs and play a little golf too, at a different course, of course. I haven't even touched my clubs in a long time. I hope the bag is still in style!

30 April is District Tournament and State Tournament is next week. I'll keep you posted.

This is Juli's granddaughter Abry. Isn't she just too cute!

Construction

We're closing up two awkwardly positioned windows in my bedroom and replacing them with one window placed horizontally in the center of the room. I'm a little nervous about the change but they leaked anyway...We had to do something!

Silly Wabits!!

Beginning in the spring when you look into our backyard you may see a bunny or two. As the weather improves will see four or five. When the grass gets lush and green you can barely see the grass cause there are so many DANG BUNNIES EATING UP OUR YARD!

It Must Be This Blog....

Last night I had a dream. I couldn't tell you exactly what it was all about but someone was getting married. Jen, Dave, Jamie, Jodie, Becky, Von, Jen's cousins, couldn't tell you who, Carla and Chuckie and everyone's kids were there. Rolling green hills, kids playing, beautiful dresses, I guess you could say picture perfect. I think this all stems from Dave accusing me of going to the Dark Side because I have a Blog Header and because I've looked at so many posts that include family photos...How strange is that?

Who's Going Home?

Well, we may not have the kind of shopping that you have in Las Vegas but we do get to watch American Idol two hours before it airs in Vegas! I have to admit that its been so much fun to tease Jennifer and Jacob!
I get my paybacks though....Mark is in Las Vegas enjoying my family while I sit home alone watching American Idol....it all evens out.

Ruidoso, Alto Lakes

Can you believe this place is only 40 miles away from Alamogordo! The course is quite challenging. Jeffery continues to do well especially considering it was freezing cold and windy. Uncle Mel really enjoyed seeing herds of deer. It was funny to watch them standing right in front of the tee box, chomping away and never moving while balls screech past them.

April 16

Mark and I were supposed to be in Colorado Springs this weekend to watch Erol play baseball at the Air Force Academy but the weather canceled our plans. Bright and early Monday morning, we're off to watch another one of Jeffery's golf tournament. Its a two day tournament in Ruidoso. It should be cold with the possibility of rain. The weather has been so strange. Its been cold and extremely windy. Coach says they will play so we'll be there to watch!
