Spring Break--worst ever!

We had wonderful plans for Spring Break.  Stephen took the week off from work and we were going to go camping and rock climbing up in Oklahoma.  And then on Monday morning, Kaitlyn woke up with a fever.  And she stayed sick for a couple days.  Before she got better, Sam came down with it.


So there went our plans of camping and rock climbing.  We still hoped for maybe an overnighter somewhere local.  Stephen filled his time fixing up our back fence, replacing 3 poles and a rebuilding a panel that was rotting.  Matthew was helpful with his tools and loved helping his dad.


But sure enough Matthew and then Stephen came down with the same virus.  A fever, and then a cough.  Matthew bounced back pretty quick but Stephen's really lingered.
And it lingered so badly that that weekend's plans to head to Houston to attend the baptism of Elisa were in jeopardy.  In the end Stephen stayed home, we took the gamble that Lindsey and I would remain well and not infect the rest of the McKneely clan.
The baptism was lovely.  Kaitlyn played the piano and did a great job.  It was her first time playing for a meeting outside Young Womens.  So proud of her!

And I was honored to give the talk on baptism for sweet Elisa Sophia.
