Good News!!

Sammy is NOT a MRSA carrier. We are so relieved with this news. We did tell her that she still has to wash her hands often along with normal hygiene care! Enjoy the photo. These were cards made at last months classes I taught at the Elementary schools. Hugs and Giggles!!

Sammy update

Well she got over the MRSA and now has folliculitus. Infection of the hair follicle. It is in her armpit. She is now on an antibiotic for 10 days. After she is done with that. She will go in and get her nose swabbed to see if she is a carrier for MRSA. After that. We don't know. Will keep you posted. Oh, here is a photo Bill's Dad took of us on the log ride at Silverwood!

First Day of School

And Chandler's first day of high school. I think she was up at 4:30! She was a bundle of nerves! lol As you can see they both got there haircut, colored and highlighted! I was sure there would be some huge arguments in the morning fighting over the bathroom etc. But so far so good! they are also learning to get up with their own alarm clocks, so I get to sleep in a bit more since I have to be at work later then they have to be at school. When they got home from the first day. I had cupcakes and milk ready for their afterschool snack. It was fun with all of us sitting at the table eating and talking about our day. Hugs and Giggles!!

Chandler's 14th Birthday!

I cannot believe she is 14 and going to High School in a week!
As usual we went to Red Robin for dinner. Love the onion rings! As you can see Red the Robin was there! She was sooo embarrassed when they sang to her. One of Chandler's requests this year was money, money and more money. She wanted to buy what she wanted with it. We waited til Friday and her and I took off in the morning and went shopping til we dropped! It was fun. We also met up with Bill and he bought us lunch. We found a ton of bargains too. Next up.....the first day of school!
Hugs and Giggles!!










Chandler's new haircut. It is sooo cute!

I know I know

It has been a month since my last post. I was busy helping Sammy through the MRSA thing. Chandler's Birthday was coming up, school/work was starting soon and I was geting overwhelmed by it all. So Bill got some Mariner tickets for the 8/25 game. He and the girls went and had fun. It had been awhile since they had seen an M's game. And I got to have a break! lol Will post again right after this one with Chandler's 14th Birthday!

Health updates

Hi All,
Well we took Sammy into the Doctor's again on Monday 8/18/08 ( Mine and Bill's 18th wedding anniversary) Her cultures came back...she actually has MRSA, now before you freak out. it is different strain then what we see on the news. He is still positive she got it on that water ride. She is on another antibiotice plus still taking the first one. They are healing up and drying out. Thank goodness because they were just nasty. Chan's finger looks much better, some of the swelling has gone down and the bruising is going away. Me, well I passed the kidney stone this morning. How something so small can wreck havoc on your system is beyond me! I now have to take it to the doctors. Such fun in the Boelter household. Enjoy the picture of the cats!

Hi All,

Last of the Silverwood photos!

Finally, here are the last of the Silverwood photos. Most of these are of the sunrises and sunset, people and the bathroom Bill and I had that connected to our room. I meant to get the bed shot after I had washed and remade the bed but forgot. We hope we cleaned and kept the place the way it was so that we may stay there again!
Sammy is on the road to recovery I will update with more photos this week, along with new photos of Chandlers pinky finger. I am doing sooo much better, except I now have a uti which has to wait till tomorrow morning when the doctors office opens. Morning can't come soon enough right now! lol
Hugs and giggles!!

I met..........

STACY JULIAN............the founding editor of Simple Scrapbooks and the founding partner of Big Picture Scrapbooking. It was so cool. Bill and I were just walking along and Stacy and her family went by us going the opposite direction. I was like omg omg omg that is my scrapbooking idol! Bill is like huh, what! I turned around to catch up to her. She was so sweet. I didn't want to interupt her family time. She was so cool and her son Trey took a photo of us. Sorry, I was all hot, sweaty from being at the park all day. lol I was so excited I was shaking....so was Bill's head as he just didn't understand. It was the best vacation ever! Hugs and Giggles!!
