Well, Rachel and I got back from Rachael's wedding shower last night! We got to our hotel Friday night and swam a little and then just chilled out in our room. Unfortunately, Rachael and the baby got hand, foot, and mouth disease so the shower ended up being pretty small. I saw Emma and couldn't stand it, I had to hold her regardless of getting sick! She is so adorable. Chubby babies are the best! I can't believe Ryan and Rachael's wedding will be here so soon! I got the info from Rachael for Stephen's tux since he is going to be the ring bearer! Hopefully, that will work out okay! At the end of the shower, Mom called and told me that my Uncle Bob had passed away. Uncle Bob was my Grandma's brother and him and his wife, Betty used to have awesome wiener roasts at their farm. The girls loved to go and ride their horse, Molly, when they were little. They also would take us on hayrides! Bob had gotten into a car accident earlier in the week and never came back from it. I hadn't planned on going to my Grandma's since we were traveling back to TN that night but went ahead and made the trip and ended up getting to see my Dad for a few hours, too. Rachel and I got back on the road and grabbed some dinner. Right after that I started feeling sick! I was sweating and just felt awful! I sat in Steak and Shake's bathroom for about 40 minutes just trying to not be sick! Then, I thought I was okay and got back on the road. Well, I wasn't. I then pulled over and sat in Wendy's bathroom for about another 1/2 hour! We finally got back on the road and made it home by about 1:30am! I slept and felt better this morning but still just feel off. Hopefully, this will go away quickly! Michelle's having a great time in FL with her friend, Mary. They are going parasailing later this week and I wish I didn't even know about it! NO way!!!

Sorry to hear about your Uncle Bob, too!

Wow! That sounds terrible! What did Rachel do during these bathroom vacations? Hopefully she didn't have to stay in there listening or anything, unless she was holding your hair while you hurled. If so, what a good daughter.

I was sad to hear about Bob too. They did have the best wienie roasts & hayrides!
