Sickly Kids

Well here's our big story for the week. I was really hoping to finally meet and get to know the people in my ward this last week at our ward party. But of course Briley wouldn't let me. We had quite the tramatic experience on wednesday. Briley just happened to get the stomach flu that day and she was just acting lethargic all day and then about 10 minutes before we had to go to the ward christmas party she threw up all over my living room. And after that she acted like she felt ok so I continued to get ready for the party while Ammon cleaned up the puke. He then took off to the Utah State Basketball game and I went to the party alone with the kids. (if that wasn't hard enough) We were there for about 45 minutes and it was finally our turn to get in line to eat. And I scooped briley up in one arm and pushed Katelyn in the stroller with the other. And then it happen all down the front of me and all over the floor and a couple chairs curdled milk and hot dogs everywhere. Oh it was so humiliating she was screaming I wanted to cry. Our cultural hall has carpet not wood so it made it even harder to clean. Finally a couple women escorted me out and helped me with the kids and poor April Litchford ended up cleaning up my child's mess. About 10 minutes after we got home a couple men showed up on my door step with food. I'm not exactly sure who they were but I think it was my bishop and a counselor. I couldn't remember what they looked like. They obviously could tell I was not having a good night. What's bad though is I swear they were clear on the other side of the gym so that means EVERYONE saw. How imbarasing.
