It's beginning to look a lot like....a virus.

Well, well. Remember the 'ol RotaVirus years a while back? If you still have the link to my old journal, I encourage you to take a walk down nightmare, er...memory lane. Just for funnsies. Or, you can just take my word for it when I say that every Spring Break and Thanksgiving means only one thing for us....a fever (and vomiting, coughing, sore throat, pooping, rash, etc.) Hhhmm. Sam has a fever and a sore throat. Go us. Of course, we knew this was bound to happen. How, you ask? Well, it's simple. Thanksgiving break started yesterday. We're all as good as infected with something by now, I'd bet. ((ROLLLINGG MY EEEYYYESS.) I think the only other person I know with our luck is E. Jo! Hope you're all healthy my friend.
This morning (when we thought--HA.HA. that we were all well) we went to town. We stopped at the pet store and bought Pongo a ridiculous sweater that he absolutely hates but that we put on him anyway because it was cute. Ahem.
Proof that we really shouldn't have......

Then we went to Michaels where I bought some things to decopauge (I never can spell that right) these reindeer thingys that I also bought there. HHhhmm. What else? We went to World Market and picked up some GINORMOUS pillows for the new room/daybed. Looks nice. Pics soon, I promise.
Oh. But the really big news is that on Friday eve we went to SciPort/Space Dome. If you don't have one of these near you, well...you're just missing out. It's the neatest, interactive place for kids where they can learn about science/math related things. Well, they just built this 9 million dollar space dome with all types of space/flight related activities (guess who loved this place?) as well as a planetarium. The kids had a ball, but especially Jack. See?

We went to the planetarium, saw an ENORMOUS model of the sun that reflects live images from the REAL sun onto the model. It's something to see. Jack got to land the space shuttle in a flight simulator program, build a paper airplane and launch it in this cool test launcher, ride in a vacuum chair, and tons of other cool stuff. Wanna see pics of Sam and Soph too? Alright!!
Here is Sophy riding the giant protractor thingy. Hehe.

Sam is plotting a course to somewhere warm.

Pinke Man has family portraits and senior portraits to do tomorrow. I think I will go buy somethings for our new, soon-to-be mudroom! Oh, and Sophy's birthday cake for her party!!! 5 years old this week~EEK~
