All is well...

Hello! I know its been a while since my last post, but we have been a little pre-occupied at the Ferguson house! Last week, Jordan and I were both sick. My amazing parents took Karis for me to try to keep her from getting sick and to give me and Jordan time to recuperate! Aren't they awesome? Well, even though she wasn't around us, she still got sick. She went to her dad's house for the weekend and came back almost back to 100%! Sunday night, I didn't get to go to my Dave Ramsey class, but I took Karis to my parents and we had a GREAT visit! Jordan called me around 8:30 or so and told me he was going to the hospital... I was just a little confused :) It turns out that one of our high school kids had a seizure and when he fell out of his chair, he hit his head on the concrete floor! He had a concussion. They ran tests on him and the doctors don't really know what caused it... they told him he was allow 'one free seizure' in his life before they started to worry too much. Interesting... Anyways, we had that kiddo over to our house for dinner on Tuesday night. He is really a GREAT kid! Wednesday we all of our junior high kids over to our house for what we like to call "Fast Lane". Its just a time of fellowship and we have a devo. Its really nice having the kids at the house. One big goal of having Wednesday night bible study at our house is to help them feel more comfortable being in our house and letting them know that they are always welcome! Karis LOVES having them all there! Of course, she not really in the mood for bible study, but she loves getting to play and have all the attention! She's not spoiled at all... HA!
I was the bad guy yesterday and took Karis Mae to get her flu shot. We went to 3 different places, but we got it done! I made her an appointment at my doctors office, but apparently, the new shipment of vaccines has a mercury preservative in them and couldn't be given to kids under the age of 4. So, they told me to try Walgreen's... We ventured down to Walgreen's and found out that you have to be 9 years old to get one there. I called a pediatric clinic that I take her to sometimes and they were great and worked us in! Hooray!
This weekend, we are trying to think of something fun to do as a family! We only have her 2 weekends a month, so we try to do something really fun and different on at least 1 of them. We are thinking Kemah or maybe the children's museum or maybe the zoo. Any thoughts? Well, whatever we do, I will be sure to write about it and post some pictures! We got some sad news in the office this week. I don't think that the news is going to be made public for a while, but if you think about it, just say a little prayer for a special person. God will know who and what you are talking about.

  1. Kara, in November you and Jordan should plan to take Karis Mae to the Woodlands Childrens Festival. We've gone a couple of times in the last few years (they didn't have it last year due to Ike damage), but we LOVE it. It's not expensive, and the best part is that none of the activities cost extra. It's Nov. 14 and 15 this year. I highly recommend it as a VERY fun family day!!!

    And for October, if you're still looking for something to do, the Children's Museum is AWESOME. It may be busy on a weekend, however. We may even buy a season pass, since our kids loved it so much. Even Connor found a lot of stuff to do there!

    LOVE your blog! I'm too disorganized to start one, LOL, so I just enjoy everyone else's! :)

I got paid today and realized I'm getting paid more than I was expecting... So I'm trying to plan a trip to Houston. It will have to be a short one, but its ok. I love you so so much!
