We LOVE visiting the farm.I am so glad that Dave has family up in San Luis Obispo and yes his Aunt and Uncle live on a FARM!!!!After all the junk that's happened in the past couple months, we decided to head up there before Christmas for a mini vacation.The drive up was Horrible!We usually drive at night so the kids can sleep, but for some reason we decided to drive during the day...NOT a good idea.It took us twice as long to get up there.We anticipated staying a couple days, but the kids were both not feeling well, so we ended up staying for only one night.
Lil man LOVED watching the chickens and running on the grassWe played on the "playground" and went down the slideWe looked for pirates and buried our treasureDaddy took the kiddos on the ATV around the farm :) -The lil lady kept yelling "Go Faster!"We made chocolate crinkle cookies! We went to the Farmers Market for some outside fun and warm Kettle Korn! and most importantly we were in the Best company.There is something about SLO that feels like home. It is the one place I would move without much thought. I love the small town feel, the slower pace, the old look and downtown feel :)
Like I have said many times before, things happen for a reason. Now I know why we ended up coming home WAY early...I was in the ER with our lil man about 2 hours after arriving home last night.I woke up to hearing him through the monitor struggling to breathe.One of the scariest moments of my life.I think I made it to the hospital in record time.I wish I could say that we were seen rather quickly, but we weren't. A couple chest x-rays, a steroid injection, a second opinion from a different dr (the first doc wasn't sure if he had pneumonia or Croup), a breathing treatment and 3 hours later - we finally came back home at 530am.I am SO ready for Christmas!
