long days & nights....





well,

drae has been out of town at a healthcare conference in iowa since sunday. i miss him when he is gone & i guess livi does too. she has been on a crazy schedule this week where she wakes up about 2:30am wanting to party... i guess she thinks she can get away with it since dad is out of town. my sweet parents came and stayed all day on monday while i worked and cared for livi. she loved having her grandmother & grandfather there & i am so thankful to them for giving of their time to help me & love on her. mom spent the night & also relieved livi's sitter, steph, @ 5:30pm yesterday too since drae is not able to. but, today is finally my last day at work this week and livi's aunt tiff & uncle nate will be picking her up from sitter @ 5:30pm to keep her till i get off tonight. (thanks so much to them for that!!) then, hopefully drae will be home tomorrow night as scheduled. however, with all the flooding in iowa they evacuated the town they were in today & the rest of the conference was canceled. when i talked to dana (several people from TLC are there) she said there was water in the streets, some bridges had been washed away, and the entire town was filling sandbags trying to save the city from the rising waters. so, they evacuated the hotel, were shuttled to the airport & tried to change their flights to come home. but, they couldn't get anything so had to check back into a motel & wait till their scheduled flight tomorrow. crazy. i'm including some pics of their adventure this week.

HAPPY 50TH BIRTHDAY TO MY SWEET SISTER SHALIA!! YOU ARE FABULOUS!
