Fun but eventful weekend

Hello friends and family -

We are winding down from the weekend after many hours of Wii. Our nephew and niece came to visit and were a force to be reckoned with on the Wii. I do believe I beat Sabrina once at boxing but she in turn kicked all three boys butt at golf. We had a really good time with Mario Kart too! It's a good thing that game isn't 3D.

It was a very eventful weekend. Our sweet Lucy managed to hurt her paw as she chased her new 'boy toy' Kinu around. Jason and I ran her off to the vet and left everyone here. Its a good thing we did - b/c Scott was working on our door from the garage when he smelled something funny like smoke. He took a look at the neighbors just to find smoke billowing out from their garage. He immediately grabbed his fire extinguisher and helped them as much as possible before the firefighters arrived. Jason and I came home to 3 fire trucks in front of our house....I PANICKED! The smell of smoke on Scott's clothing brought back a lot of memories from Reservoir.

Anyway, Jason and I are both coming down with something. Jason thinks he is getting (if he doesn't already have) a sinus infection and my throat is sore - and we all know what that means for me! I am just hoping it gets better before it gets any worse.

Update on the weight wagon....Its week 6 and I weighed in today to find that I had lost another 1.6 lbs making it a total of 6.8 lbs in 6 weeks! So I am 0.8 lbs ahead of my goal. I couldn't believe it either with company and a little less exercise than I am used to getting! Another 10 weeks to go and I will be smokin'. HA!! :)
