The flu. BOO. We were supposed to go to the beach for Thanksgiving to visit Matt's grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins. Poor ole Thomas, who had been BEYOND excited, got sick Tuesday night. Since the flu test actually came back negative, we decided to head to our hotel. It didn't take long to realize the test had been wrong! 105 degree fever is no fun! However, Thomas was a trooper and barely complained about sitting in a hotel room instead of exploring Myrtle Beach and visiting family. On Saturday, his fever finally broke and he was blessed with a sunny, warm day by the ocean. Those few hours made the trip worth it! Tucker now has the awful bug, but we were lucky to have it hit AFTER we got home. He's suffering too (LOTS of screaming) but hopefully he'll follow Thomas and recover in four days or so. Although it was a hard Thanksgiving in a lot of ways, we are grateful for our two little boys whether sick or well!
