Pictures - 40 - 46

Tuesday - Day 40 - February 9th - I went to see Jodi in the hospital and she was doing so much better. A student nurse had washed her hair and she had gotten all her tubes out. She was walking around and looked so good! She even let me take a picture of her.

Wednesday - Day 41 - February 10th - Lucas got strep throat and Bethany had an ear infection, so they didn't go to school this day. Steve took the girls with him to the hospital to see their mom, but thought Lucas shouldn't go. So, he spent the day with me. Here he is amusing himself with Papa's crokinole board. He wasn't playing crokinole, though, he was racing the buttons around he board! Those boys will race anywhere with anything!!! Thursday - Day 42 - February 11th - This was the Scrabble game I thought I was going to win. I had a really big lead on Pam, but she pulled closer and closer to me and in the end, it was a draw!! I'm still trying to win one from her!! Friday - Day 43 - February 12th - Dale had the day off. We went for haircuts and then had the afternoon to kill, so we decided to go check out the new Walmart Supercentre. It is big and had lots of stuff!

Saturday - Day 44 - February 13th - It was bitterly cold this day, so Dale said we were going to "veg" all day. So this is him vegging!

Sunday - Day 45 - February 14th - Valentine's Day - the 52nd running of the Daytona 500 - the start of the 2010 NASCAR season! It was a very long race with two total stops for "road repair" and Dale watched it all. I did catch him sleeping once, but it was during a stop. I had to use two pictures, as Lucas said the one I liked was just the cars driving behind the pace car. The "blurry" one was more exciting! Whatever!

Monday - Day 46 - February 15th - we went over to see Jodi and give the kids their valentine candy since they weren't at church on Sunday. Steve came down with strep throat, too. Jodi is on so many antibiotics, she should be ok. Lucas talked Papa into playing Wii NASCAR with him. Papa was finally getting the hang of it when his back and knees gave out and it was time to quit!
