Missing out on our mini-vacation

[believe]

I am suppose to be in Tennessee for an extended weekend vacation. DD#2 became sick yesterday, 103 fever and vomiting, so I told DH to go on without us. We couldn't cancel since his mom, dad, aunt, uncle and cousin were also going and DH was the leader/planner of this trip, as well as the driver for his mom and dad. DD#1 was a little upset that she would be going without us, but I think once she gets there she will feel better about it. Hopefully this will also keep her from getting sice, she was just sick last week with this same thing. I would like to stop the cycle.
I plan on taking DD#2 to see Brother Bear on Monday, if she is feeling better. Right now she just wants to watch videos, which is fine with me. If she feels better at some point during the day I would really like to do something special for her since she didn't get to go....any ideas?

My girls always liked special attention when they were sick, it didn't matter what kind. A picnic on the floor, a board or card game, even coloring pictures together. As long as the attention was focused on them, they thought it was very special.

I hope she feels better soon, Amanda! And I hope you two have a great Mommy/daughter weekend!

Today has gone well. Cassie has finally eaten and is keeping it down. She has slept a lot, which is good. Hopefully tomorrow will be an even better day!!!!!!!!!

Serena....I know what you mean about special attention. All Cassie wants is for me to do is stay with her.

Awww, I'm sorry your youngest is unwell. Hope she is feeling better very soon.

I'm glad Cassie is doing better today.

My SO's brother and cousin went to Pigeon Forge this weekend. Is that where Shep and Mandy's at?

Enjoy the time alone with Cassie. Maybe you 2 can plan a trip to TN soon. I hope she's feeling much better.

Glad to hear Cassie is feeling better. What about a picnic at the park. We have been having some beautiful weather here - what about there. Maybe popcorn and a special movie with you and her curled up on the floor with pillows and blankets.
Hope you have a great rest of the weekend.

Well.....last night was not a good night, but she is better this morning. I know last week when Mandy had this the nights were the worst part of it. It was a long night, but should be coming to an end today or tomorrow.

browneyes....Todd and Mandy are in a chalet between Townsend and Pigeon Forge. They did visit Pigeon Forge yesterday. Today they are heading to Cherokee. I am not a long distance driver so Cassie and I won't be going by ourselves, I prefer to sleep during the long drive.

Amanda, I am so sorry you and Cassie didn't get to make the trip. I hope Mandy adjusted well to it and is having a good time. We like to head to the smokie mts whenever we can also. I haven't been since last dec. though. I'm hoping we'll be able to squeeze in a trip before this year is over too.

Hoping you guys are doing better today, Amanda, sounds like it.

I know Todd was looking forward to this trip. Hope Cassie is feeling better.

Amanda, I am sorry to hear that you two had to miss out on your vacation. I hope that Todd and Mandy will have a good time despite this. I am glad to hear though, that Cassie is feeling better... and I hope she is well enough to go see Brother Bear today! I remember Todd saying when Mandy was sick earlier, so I am sorry both have been under the weather recently. I hope you two can have a good day today

The trip went well...
We went to Pigeon Forge and to the Outlet Malls saturday while waiting for the check in time to get our chalet...Funny thing was I ran into someone from work...lol..
We ventured into gatlinburg that night and went to church and walked the strip...Went home and played cards and got to use the hot tub...(Mandy loves the hot tub..lol)

Yesterday we went to Cherokee and walked around the souveneir stores and went to Mingo Falls and drove by the Casino in Cherokee and drove to Maggie Valley...Then headed back to the chalet and played more cards...

Today we went to the Christmas place and picked up some ornaments and then came home..And it looks like Amanda might be sick now...

It's good to be home...

 

[catsrule]

Glad you made it home, Todd. Now come back to work.

 

[shep]

It's WAY to nice to come back...
I'm staying home tomorrow too...
