February

We are all so sad and shocked about Loulou dying. What a terrible accident. That dog sure was a character (he would alert Sharon whenever shr got a text message, teased John, loved to chew in Campbell's hair) and was so crazy about Campbell. When we stopped to visit on the way back from Ely ski meet on Sharon's birthday, his tail was wagging so fast that you could barely see it.

Then Strep....Finn was sick and couldn't swallow his spit but then got better, then the next week I go so sick and couldn't swallow either. Turns out it was Strep. Then Miles same. Then I got horrible rash/itchy hives all over my body and even my face, so miserable.

Then at Blake's last game of the season he was guarding a kid who pushed him and he fell backwards & hurt his wrist. The Athletic Trainer said we better go get an xray. Sure enough, buckle fracture (Salter-Harris type I physeal fracture of distal end of left radius) and maybe brusing of the growth plate. Splint and followup with Ped Ortho in a week or 2. They said it should heal pretty quick, but think our President's Ski weekend at Giant's Ridge is out for the 2nd year in a row. Last year Finn puked so we had to go home. Would've been a fun game to play in, they beat Cloquet 50-25, only their 2nd win of the season. 

Well, it's only a week into February, so we have hit our quota. On to better things.

Update: 1 week after Blake's fractured wrist, Miles sprained his ankle by stepping in teammates ankle at practice.
