Snow Mountain and the Plague!!!

Sorry it's been awhile since I posted! We've been hit with "The Plague" in the Sullivan house...and one that hit the rest of the neighborhood I might add.
The kids hung around each other all weekend so it was inevitable that Tyler would get it.
He woke up on Sunday night with a 104 degree fever...scary I know! But the good news is that he didn't have a seizure this time...hooray! I think we are out of the horrible febrile seizure woods, which is always a huge relief.
We broke the fever with ibuprofen but took him to the doctor on Monday. Diagnosis? Upper Respiratory Infection and Pink Eye. So Monday and Tuesday I worked from home while Tyler got better!
He's back at school today and everything seems fine! Fingers crossed they stay that way!

This weekend was so much fun though!
Friday night we hung out in the neighbors yard for a bit, then ordered Asian and chilled. Nothing big.
Saturday morning we were up and ready to hit Snow Mountain by 10am. Our neighbor Jill turned the big "Thirty-Something" and wanted a family friendly day at Snow Mountain as her gift. So 7 families in the neighborhood all got tickets and joined in the fun! What's Snow Mountain you ask? It's a Stone Mountain (the famous landmark in Atlanta) that they cover with Snow in the winter time! Of course it's man made snow and you take a gamble when you buy your ticket (will it be too hot..will it rain?) but luckily the high on Saturday was 41 degrees and the kids had a ball! Tyler was scared shitless to go down the slides so Ben made him go down once (we are trying to encourage the whole "conquer your fear" thing). I sat out since I was preggers...but Tyler had zero desire to go again. He was content building forts and building snowmen.

We had a picnic lunch and stayed from about 11am until 3pm. Below are some pics of our fun day!





That evening Jill's party continued at our house. Everyone came over for pizza and cake and the kids ran wild. It was a very fun and very exhausting day!
Sunday we continued organizing (we tackled Tyler's closet) and then hit up Studio Movie Grill for Escape from Planet Earth. Tyler loved his second trip to the movies and I'm glad Ben finally got the chance to go along with us!



Hope everyone out there had as much fun as we did this weekend!!!
