Homecoming Drama

Sorry about the hiatus, but we've had a rough few days! First off, on Friday our adopted family in Cedar, the Montoyas (Pat Meegan's mom) let us know that Bubs (or Julie) was on Homecoming royalty at Canyon View High school! Well we couldn't miss out on seeing Bubs in an evening gown (which she looked gorgeous in by the way!) so we went to the football game and cheered her on while she drove around the track in the back of a truck (They were going to have a helicopter land on the field and drop them off, but it didn't work out. Can you believe that?!). Bubs had the whole Miss America wave down, although I think she was being a little mocking, which sounds more like Bubs than a beauty queen. Anyway, she's the beaming beauty to the left of the pirate in the pic above. My camera was acting up so that was the best shot I got. It was also Brighton's first football game so we had to document that with her daddy as you'll notice above.
Then, after the game we brought Brighton home and to bed, but she woke up at 11:00pm which was out of character and she was burning up. We gave her medicine and she slept throught thenight, but the next morning she had a temp of 104 so we started doing everything we could think of bring it down, but to no avail. She was miserable all day and just wanted to be held, wanted her blanket, or wanted to sleep all day long. Sunday wasn't much better. By the evening time her temp peaked at 105. We were frantic. So we called Kyle's brother who has been through medical school and he diagnosed it to be Rosiola. He said that we just needed to get the fever down in any way and that she should be getting a rash all over her body. We finally got the fever down and sure enough, she got a rash. She's doing much better now and the only sign of the sickness is the rash (which is not contagious anymore! whew!). She seems to be our bright little Brighton again which is a relief for us! So anyway, this weekend we had a little homecoming and a little drama, but thankfully they weren't in the same category!
