Early Saturday morning I heard my mom up in the bathroom for quite awhile but didn't fully understand until everyone was up and going for the day. She said she felt like she had the flu and was not feeling good. We made her a bed on the bathroom floor(another reason I love this house...I have 5 bathrooms) and she spent the rest of the day there. I was not sure what to do about Em's party but I made her cupcakes and left them out to cool not to concerned with frosting them since we weren't sure what the plan was. Everyone else was feeling fine and playing having a great time. When mom didn't feel better by noon we decided to "cancel" the party so we called the rest of the family and let them know the situation. Nic and Ky decided to come anyways since they had been exposed to us the previous couple days, grandma wanted to stop by and see mom but said they wouldn't stay long, and everyone else decided to stay home to avoid getting sick. Knowing that we decided to just be lazy for the day. About 4 Kim, Matt, and I were visiting in the family room still in our pjs when grandma shows up with Aunt Jeanette's family. I got up to get the door and everyone came in with stuff in hand to come to the party. We were caught off guard but were happy to have everyone as long as they were ok with braving the germs. We quickly threw the party together. Frosted cupcakes, got the grill going, paper products out, and ready for the day. It was completely crazy but it ended up all working out. The theme we did was...You are One in a Melon(watermelon themed)
After some good food everyone was sitting around visiting when I hear Kimber calling for me from the basement. With further investigation I found out that Luke had started barfing and Kim needed some stuff to clean up the bathroom. He luckily made it to the bathroom but hadn't quite made it to the potty. We quickly wrapped up the party letting Em open her gifts and eating cake before everyone left so they wouldn't be exposed any more.
We spent the rest of our evening cleaning up and trying to figure out what weird bug was randomly hitting the family. On Sunday morning with my mom feeling a little better and Luke not throwing up since the night before Kimber decided they better make a run for home. Fortunately they made it home without any problems.
