Zach had a really good birthday party turn-out. There were 17 or 18 kids plus their parents that showed up. It was a lot of fun!

Gretchen's parents left 2 days after the party. Her mom got sick while she was down here and now Gretchen is sick. She woke up with a sore throat last Thursday and then came the cough on Sunday. That's all she has been doing since Sunday. It got so bad that she hasn't been able to sleep the past 2 nights. She went to the doctor yesterday. The doctor says that she thinks Gretchen has a sinus infection that is turning bronchial (sp?). So, she is on an antibiotic & a cough suppressant. You should see these pills. They are like "Horse" pills.

Corey had shut-down week last week. He worked almost 80 hours in 6 days. He got a little sick towards the end of the shut-down. He's coughing some but not as much as Gretchen. Hopefully he won't get what she has.

We set up our Christmas tree yesterday. Gretchen's parents are coming down for Thanksgiving and we want to have our Christmas decorations already up so we can just relax all weekend. Plus, this will be the last time we see them until we go to Hawaii in January.
