This past week started out with a birthday part for Kevin's dad. He turned 50 last Friday. We got together with the Watson side of the family. The kids had a great time with Grandpa and their cousins. I only stayed for about an hour and then Kevin took me home because I had been having bad headaches. (more on that later) Thankfully we live about a mile from their home and Kevin didn't have to miss to much of the party!
Victoria and Logan playing around with Mommy...
Logan took this picture...not to bad...On Sunday we headed to church as normal. We joined Berean almost a year ago. When we joined Kevin and I decided to be faithful to the church, but we weren't ready to dive in right away...just because of somethings that happened at our old church...well this was Kevin's first Sunday at being an usher. He was a bit nervous at first but he got the hang of it and by the end of the service he said he thought he could handle it!!! It is coming a sort of tradition to stop at Qudoba on our way home from Church. Logan loves to eat there and Victoria finally found something there that she likes. ;) We first started going there because kids eat free on Sunday. Not to bad...I love something free. :)
I didn't make it to church on Sunday evening. My headache was back with a vengeance. I decided that I was going to have to call the doctor the next day. My doctors office was able to get me in right away on Monday. I spent 15 minutes with my doctor and she concluded that I have migraines. Ok....so now what?? They gave me a prescription and sent me on my way. At first I was so excited and couldn't wait to take the medication just to relieve the pain.
I took the medication and 1 1/2 hours later I was IN bed...dizzy and barely able to keep my eyes open. So how was I going to take this medication and work??? Don't think so.
I had to take the medication once more and then I talked to my mom. She has also had bad migraines and gave me some help. She asked me if I use a lot of nutri sweet in my diet. Uh....oh yes...Diet Pepsi, crystal light and tea...that is all I drink all day long. I also add it in my cereal too. She suggested to me that I cut it all out of my diet and see how I feel then. Right now I am doing better. I miss my crystal light and pop, but I am willing to miss it and not have headaches...
This isn't the best picture of Vitoria but my mom got her this dress for Christmas and didn't get to see it on her. Sorry, mom, I tried to get a better picture of her before Church on Sunday but it just didn't happen!
Logan wanted a picture too...what a ham!!!A friend of ours got married yesterday...yes, on leap day...it was a beautiful wedding!! We were so excited to be part of their special day. They got married in Madison, Wisconsin so we were able to spend the night. Their reception and our hotel was right next to the state capital. It was a great night away. Although I will say I am a bit tired today.
Last night at the wedding...the food was delicious and we had a great time with all the guys I work with!!

I agree with everyone else - your hair cut looks great on you!
How awesome that your mom knew of a natural remedy to the migraines! Are they getting even better since you've changed your diet?
Ooh, I wonder if that Qdoba freebie is a regional thing. I'll have to check that out because we're always looking for somewhere cheap to eat on Sundays after church! I like Qdoba way better than Chipotle.
