Happy 10th Birthday Emma!!











This week was BUSY. There's no other word that better describes it. It was just busy. To start, we celebrated Emma's 10th birthday!! We had an online party for her and hooked the laptop up to the TV and used a webcam which worked out nicely. Sometimes it felt like we were watching the Brady Bunch but it was cool to see all of Emma's friends and family. Cousin Star gave an art class during the party which was cool. Emmas picture is shown above. We also had my friend Jose's wife Vicky make a cake for Emma which came out incredible! It was several layers and weighed over 10 pounds. Toni had seen it in a picture and Vicky did an amazing job recreating it. I can't believe that Emma is 10 already. Both girls are growing so fast!

Also this week, Caitlin got her braces put on her bottom teeth. She looks so pretty with them and I swear she looks so grown up now. I don't know what happened to my little girl!

The last big thing of the week was Friday Toni went in for a heart procedure. They tried to go in through the arteries in her legs but that didn't work so they ended up going through her wrist. She's recovering nicely but still has quite a bit of pain. She's not able to to do much with her hands so we're trying to help out as much as we can. The procedure was only about 45 minutes but after all was said and done she was at the hospital for about 12 hours. They didn't find any blockage so a stent wasn't needed. They said her heart is strong so we're not sure why she's been having chest pains. They said it could be anything from anxiety to indigestion. Next week or the week after she's going to have to go back for a sonogram of her legs. They said her pulse in her legs was weak so they're going to check it out.

This week Toni will be off work on Monday recovering and then it will be back to work as usual. We need to get Christmas shopping knocked out too. We'll probably do everything online this year. Covid has just exploded around the country. Days of over 200k cases a day are now normal and on Thursday we hit over 280k cases in one day. The number of deaths has also continued to climb and his now around 3000 every day. Meanwhile our "leader" is busy trying to claim election fraud and is completely ignoring the problems. I will be so glad when that idiot is gone. I don't think things will turn around quickly but I think things will definitely get better. I hope everyone has a great week and continues to stay safe.
