We got home safely last night and I had a great 10 1/2 hour night sleep. Tonight however, it's back to the usual insomnia so I thought I'd hop on and post a little.

I went back to Nephi in Friday and since I wasn't sure if anyone took pictures after the burial I snapped a few (ps, just a reminder that I want a copy of everyone's pictures). The flowers were still in pretty good shape so I left them there.
We tried to take a family picture while we were at Daniel's brother's house, this was one of the best we got...

So it seems that the fever Spencer had at the Red Barn was the beginnings of Hand-foot-and-mouth disease. Spencer has the rash on his hands and feet but thankfully doesn't seem to have any in his mouth. I felt bad that we probably exposed several children and had to fly, but there wasn't much we could do about it. He hasn't complained about it at all, for which I am supremely grateful. He's more annoyed by the mesquito bites he got here at the airport that have swelled on his forehead, ears and neck; they're so painful to even look at...
(The weird eyes make it look even worse!)
But life seems to be quickly getting back to normal...
It was so good to see you all. Love from Texas.

I love the family picture, and I am pleased to hear you all made it home safely. So sorry to hear about the illness!
Thanks for your post and all those pictures! I'm glad you got back to Nephi. As soon as I stop procrasting my invoicing and 2010taxes, I'll take a look at our few photos and get them on here.
Interesting about the hand-foot-mouth issue. I'm guessing that's what all our kids have had then. Jonathan and Suzanna had a fever show up a few weeks ago, with mysterious spots on Suzanna's hands and Jonathan's feet a few days after. Christina's girls I think must have had it and maybe Cody?
Glad things are looking brighter, more normal today.
nice!
Jared now has a fever and a budding rash started on his hands and feet. So, thoughts...should I stay home with the kids or still try to go to Dallas for the BYU/TCU game???
Christina may have already called you, but the Dr. told her the girls were only contagious while they had a fever. So I'm guessing that it will be fine to go the game.
