Oh Where oh where has our Patti gone?

No I have not dropped off the face of the earth. No I haven't gone into a deep depression after the year anniversary of Rob's death. Let me try to sum up what I have been doing.

Sick, preparing for speaking engagement, sick, speaking engagement, sick, switch monkeys to beds, sick, dinner for Rob, sick, spend time with brother and family, sick, see Bennett and Ross families, sick, teach lesson, sick, finally see doctor and get medicine.

I realized that I had done nothing the whole week, when I went to get the monkeys dressed for church and realized their church pants were still in the dirty clothes. This meant I had gone the whole week without doing laundry. So this last week I spent the week catching up on life from the previous week. I haven't been on the computer much and have barely check my emails. I am finally feeling better, running five miles on Friday. Now I am afraid that I gave Jeni my sickness and hope she gets feeling better soon. I just wanted to quickly let everyone know that I am alive and doing well.

I found some old pictures on a camera from Jake's first grade Christmas party. I can't believe how little Jake and Ellie look in these pictures.

Crazy Hair Day for Jake and Ellie. Jake was mad the next day because I wouldn't put his hair into a Mohawk again! I don't think this picture truly shows how "high" Jake's hair really was. Robbie is too cool for crazy hair day.
