9th anniversary recap

So I was glad that the morning of our anniversary I blogged something sweet. Life doesn't always turn out as planned. As I was getting ready to go to the temple with Doug Libby sprayed an entire bottle of hairspray on her hair and in her eyes and it took me 20 minutes to get her to the point where she could actually open her eyes. Thus, I didn't get to wash my hair (so it looks awful in the picture below). We left the house 15 minutes late to drop Libby off. Then I realized I'd forgotten my temple bag so it was back home. Then after we left again I realized I had on black heels only they weren't a PAIR of black heels. One pointed toe, one rounded. SHEESH. Finally we got there and Doug and I got to spend a lovely two hours in the temple. We did sealings for some of my family names which was an amazing experience. Then we had lunch in the cafeteria.

We have a lot going on this week and so we didn't feel like we could get a babysitter that night so we took the kids with us to Texas Roadhouse where it was Noisy, the kids were horrible, and there was lettuce floating in my drink. The kids fought the entire way home. Libby was singing "We wish you a merry Christmas" and Hailey was yelling at Libby, "Please don't sing. I said PLEEEAAASSEEE Don't sing!" Finally Hailey couldn't take the ode to the Holidays and started bawling her head off. I attempted to silence both children by turning on Church Hymns. Is it possible for Church Hymns to add to chaos? The answer is yes, it is. Doug and I just held hands and laughed looking forward to puting our "angels" to bed.

As soon as they were in bed I had a sharp pain in my neck. When I reached up to feel it I knew immediately it was a blood clot. So I ended up spending the night of my anniversary here

with this person

not this person.

After fainting during my CT scan the results said it was a superficial thrombosis not a DVT and I was home around midnight just in time to fall into bed in tears. Happy Anniversary to Doug and me!
