Still Here :)

Basketball continues on strong as we get close to the end of the season.  We had our home tournament and ended up in second place.  Which was nice.  We had a two players on crutches and two that were going between basketball and hockey.  Everyone had fun though.  The morning of the first day, the school opened up to all spectators.  It was awesome to see the gym so full again.  Blake played well.  I wish I had clear pictures because he can really jump, it is so cool to watch.  

We were just on our way out the door to Blake's last game Saturday night when Cora called.  There had been an issue with the job in Calgary and she was wondering if they could bring some co-workers and crash at our house for the night.  We were so excited they would come.  Ammon and Cora had planned to quickly stop in for dinner Sunday anyways.  It was Super Bowl Sunday.  We always do the game day food and watch a sports movie.  Ammon called as they were leaving Calgary to see what food they could pick up since our store was closed at this point.  Blake's last game was close and a great one to watch. We cleaned up the gym and got everything put away and then rushed home to straighten our house for guests.  They arrived just before midnight.  My parents also ended up coming Sunday so we had a crew.  We loved Ammon and Cora's co-workers and they were easy and fun to be with.  Dave took them out to feed cows and we watched a movie, they played Mario Kart and other games.  I am glad they came, it was fun. 

Blake had had a bit of a runny nose Sunday afternoon, and it got a bit worse Monday.  That night we decided we should do a Rapid test just so if anyone asked we could say he did.  I was certain it would be negative.  Haha nope.  Blake tested positive for 'the Covid'  He can't say covid, its always the covid.  Makes me laugh.  I picked up his books for school on Wednesday.  Not much help from teachers.  I was pretty surprised that there was nothing set up for all these kids that are required to miss so much school.  He barely had a sniffle and would have totally gone to school.  Now he is behind on tests and notes and he is going to have to bust it to catch up.  Especially with his last two long basketball tournament coming this week.  Dave and I never got it from him.  This is how Blake let Dave know he was positive.

Under the second paper is his positive test.  

I am really enjoying working at the clinic.  It is just a few day and Blake is hardly every home by himself.  They are really good about letting me off a bit early when I need to get Blake to a game.  I love being back working where I started years ago.  Different clinic, same fun. 

Dave's job is also going well.  They have hit some amazing targets and he has gotten some fun perks lately.   They have not got many ski days this year.  But getting in what they can. 

Things are also good for the girls. Cora is getting her house organized and working on projects in Edmonton.  I think it has been great for them to be in their own house for a few months before they go east.  Get to settle in a little.  Leah has been looking into going back to school.  Has some ideas of what she would like to got back for.  She has been getting a lot of stomach aches we have been trying to figure out, but has been having lots of fun with roommates and friends. 

Life is still great and we feel really blessed.
