Makings of a quiet Weekend and perhaps week!

So Friday afternoon, Rachel calls to report that she tested positive for the Swine Flu! It is highly contagious and unable to come to our annual Jackson Family Halloween Soup Party Saturday night! Both of us were very sad, but what do you do? :( Friday night, one of my doctors from work called me to report that she just came back from her doctor's office and also tested positive for the Swine Flu. What does that mean? I am highly contagious and need to be "quaranted" for the weekend. Bruce came home from work sick with stomach problems and persistant cough! Hope he doesn't have the Swine Flu! So, I ask again, what does that mean? I had to cancel the Jackson Family Halloween Soup Party! What a bummer! Rachel was actually excited - now she can come! We will still have it, just postponed!

Anyway, this is makings of a quiet weekend and I can just imagine it may also be a quiet week at work! Keeping my fingers crossed I don't get it. Today, feeling great (Bruce is still sleeping)! Gonna get some fun projects done! Will post them! Yes!!!

General Conference Weekend!

I loved General Conference and all the talks! I also loved hearing the annoucement of 5 new temples! How exciting! Can't wait until they announce a temple in Jacksonville (lol).

Rachel and Travis came down around noon Saturday. We had a lot of fun spending the afternoon with them! Then at 4 pm, we met over at Lisa's house to make watch bracelets! The guys met at our house for pizza and then on to General Priesthood Meeting. We went to Spaghetti Factory for dinner (the girls) and then we all met up our house at 8 p.m. for pie and ice cream! It was a lot of fun! I was really missing Robby this weekend! I think because it has been six months and Robby left the Wednesday after General Conference. We had fun talking and reminscing.

Sunday at noon my family met at our home for our Traditional General Conference Breakfast. This year we made scones, waffles, omlets, and french toast while we listened (or tried to listen) to the afternoon session of General Conference!

Hope all of you had a fun weekend despite the cold and yucky weather! Not liking that it is fall! Can't wait for Spring! (lol)
