2023 :: 6/52

 wednesday the kids had school. i picked trev up from school at 2 for his 9 year check up. he'd been complaining of a sore throat for a couple days and i'd heard strep was going around school so i asked for him to be swabbed. sure enough, he had strep. we went to target after his appointment so he could spend his birthday money and he wore a mask inside. he picked a few toys and some snacks. he ended up not feeling very well by that night and the pharmacy didn't have his prescription done until almost bed time. he couldn't go back to school until he'd been on the antibiotics for 24 hours so he stayed home thursday. 

trev didn't feel great thursday but not awful. tova went to school.

by friday trev was fine and went to school. Al was off work. 

saturday we all went ice fishing up in rice lake and got to use Al's co workers cabin as a "home base" right on the lake so we could eat lunch, use the bathroom and take breaks as needed. it was a bit windy but so nice on the lake. we all caught some pan fish and we even got a perch on the tip ups where the minnow barely fit in his mouth. we had a good time and left there about 430. 

sunday started our week of having cassie, liam and elliott's dog murphy for a week. she's a golden doodle and such a good, easy dog! the kids loved having her. we went to matt & jodi's for the super bowl and i had to run trevor to swimming lessons during the game so i didn't get to see much of it, but it was fun. 

monday was a regular day for all of us: work and school. 

tuesday we had rue and trev had basketball. it was also valentine's day so we had a little party at jodi's and trev got to pass out and recieve valentine's at school. 


it was so nice out we played outside for a bit waiting for her bus

2023 :: 5/52

 wednesday Al was off work. the kids had dentist appointments so we all went up to bloomer. kids teeth look great other than trev has chipped tooth and tova needs to stop sucking her thumb. then we headed back home and dropped trev off at school. 

friday was the day before trevor's birthday so he took treats to school. tova and i went to the children's museum with jodi and carsyn, and not even a half hour into us being there, carsyn fell and split her chin open. she had to go to urgent care and get stitches. i had a call with one of the owners of the landscaping company my brother works for to start doing some bookkeeping for them. 

saturday was trevor's and my birthdays. mom came down, i worked out in the morning, then picked up trevor's cake that kassie dunbar made, and then trevor had his friend party here from 11-130p. he invited 3 friends and they played so good together! 

sunday my dad and brother came down for trevor's family party. we played games, opened presents and had lunch and ice cream cake. then trevor had swimming lessons at 6. 

monday Al was off. kids went to school then we had supper at cancun with matt and jodi and kids for me, trevor and jodi's birthdays (hers is the day after ours.) 

tuesday we had Rue, i worked at jodi's and trev had basketball after school.

2023 :: 4/52

 wednesday trev came home from school very tired and a bit warm; he had a fever of 101 and went to bed early. 

thursday trev stayed home from school but was rid of his fever by the afternoon. 

friday it snowed. Al was off for the weekend. that night Al and tova went to Al's friend Tice's house for a spaghetti dinner (Tova met Tice's daughter at the track meet) while trev and i ran some errands and had supper together. 

saturday trev and i went to watch chloe play basketball at 1230. we had dinner with matt, jodi and the kids and then Al stayed to watch wrestling with matt. 

sunday trev and i went to cam from soccer and the gym's birthday party at high roller (the skating rink right by our house.) trev had fun trying rollar skating indoors and got much better at it. then we watched football and trev had swimming lessons at 6. 

monday Al was back to work, trev to school, and tova and i to jodi's house. we also had Rue all day. i worked out at 530 while grandpa stayed with the kids. i brought Rue with me because her mom was at the gym. 

tuesday was the same except trev had basketball at 630.
