Sunday-HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!!! Began the day by getting up a little late for church, stopped by McDonald's for breakfast only to get up in the drive thru to order and they were only accepting cash because their machine was down. We ran to the gas station to get cash from the ATM and back to pick up something to eat. Arrived a little late for church, but before the message. Tracy had a nice relaxing afternoon watching the ballgame and napping. I ran to pick up a few things from CVS while he relaxed at home with the girls. Tomorrow is Trystan's four month checkup with the oncologist. Nerves are beginning this evening. The worry of cancer returning is always on our mind with every ache, pain, and appointment. God will carry us through no matter what.
Monday-We took Trystan to have a chest x-ray and her appointment with Dr. Wilson. We arrived at Children's Radiology at about 8:20 a.m. and were called back for the x-ray at about 9:00 a.m. We were in and out of there pretty quick. We all then headed up to the nineth floor for her doctor's appointment. They seem to think that she's doing really well and her chest x-rays looked good. NED! NED! NED! Back in four months. :) The only thing we have to take her back before then for an EKG when we take her to see Dr. McDonald. We were really wanting them to check her heart because she sometimes has chest pains when she go for walks. We were very happy with the results for today! Thank you God for continued answered prayers.
Tuesday-VBS started yesterday, but since we were at her appointments we were unable to make it. We were sure to go today and are planning on going the rest of the week. :) Late this afternoon there was a pretty severe thunderstorm that knocked out the power. It went out about 4:30 p.m. just as we were talking about what I was going to make for dinner. It was still out when we ended up leaving to go into town for supper. We came home to find that the electricity was still out and didn't come back on til about 7:30 p.m. Relaxed the rest of the evening.
Wednesday-After VBS the girls and I went to eat with Grandma Watson, Tyler, and Toby to eat at Madge's. When we finished lunch the girls and I headed to Edwardsville. Trystan wanted to go to Old Navy to use her gift cards she got for her birthday and Alyssa had one as well she wanted to use. They each picked out some clothes. Then it was off to Border's. The girls didn't find anything so it was then off to Wal-Mart. Trystan wanted to find a particular toy and ds game. We also had to purchase a birthday gift for Cade's birthday party this weekend. Once we finished there it was off to pick up a gift card for my dad at Home Depot. We weren't finished yet! I still had to do grocery shopping. We decided to try to shop at Shop n Save. Some things were cheaper than Wal-Mart but others were about the same. It was deffinately cheaper than IGA! We then came straight home to unload the car. Spent the rest of the evening at home. :) We were all exhausted!
Thursday-VBS again this morning. The girls are really enjoying it! I believe they are going to be a little upset tomorrow when it ends. After VBS today Trystan asked if I would take her to the cemetary so she could place her wood cross craft she made today on Grandpa Watson's grave. Impossible to say no to that! We stopped there and then came home. It was too cool out today to swim. Trystan was unhappy about that but Alyssa didn't seem to mind much. Maybe tomorrow!
Friday-Last day of VBS today. They had a carnival for the kids today! The girls had a blast as well as all of the other kids that attended!
Saturday-Starting to use coupons a little more all of the time. Today I had a GREAT deal! Went to CVS and picked up four American Greenting Cards after ExtraCare Bucks and 25% off coupon I paid just paid $0.74! That's right 74 cents!!!
