Man you would think things would start slowing down for the family but it just keeps going & going....

 

To update you all quick, here's what has been happening in the Hill household and at the daycare:

- At the end of April Chera had to have lower back surgery.  She had a herniated disk & they went in to remove all of the bone fragments.

  As a result of the surgery, she had to shut daycare down for 2 weeks.

- On Mother's Day Alex ended up fracturing his leg right underneath his knee.  He was in a cast for about 3 weeks.

- Chera has been busy stripping wallpaper & repainting 2 rooms at daycare.  She also reorganized the rooms (putting her 2 weeks of HGTV
  watching to use).

- At the end of May Chera's grandpa passed away due to complications with a triple heart bypass.  Chera, Chad & Gabby made a quick trip
  to Lubbock, TX for the funeral.  It was more like a mini family reunion because we saw some relatives that we haven't seen in over 5
  years.

- Upon our arrival from Texas Alex started T-ball and Gabby started swim team

- Our daycare windows arrived while we were in Texas so Chad & Chera made a quick trip to Topeka to pick them up.  Chad has been busy
  ever since installing them all.  He finally got them done last weekend.  Sigh of relief...

- Last weekend Chera took Chad's truck to Topeka to get Gabby & a friend at Girl Scout camp and to exchange 2 of the daycare's windows
  that were the wrong size.  On her way to get Gabby on I70 the truck got a blow-out.  Chera was stranded in the rain for 1 hour while she
  waiting on the KS Highway patrol to come to her aide.  She was a 1/2 hour late getting Gabby & her friend.  Then we headed to Lowes to
  exchange the windows, another hour delay.  They couldn't get a stocker to get the old windows out of the truck & bring the new ones out. 
  They I had to wait for management to confirm what was going on with our account.  I should have just left after the windows were loaded,
  I could have saved $85.  Chad took his truck in for a damage estimate from the blow-out, it caused about $1,600 in damages to his truck. 
  Who would have thought a blow-out would have caused that much in damages?

- Now it's almost the 4th of July.  Tonight we are going to Sabetha's festivities and firework show.  On the 4th we are getting together with
  some friends for a BBQ and to do our own fireworks.  We usually head over to Highland for Mike and Cynthia's but we hadn't heard from
  them yet so we agreed to go to our friends instead.

- Next Monday the vinyl sideing & guttering are going to get installed at the daycare.
