We went on our annual Big Bear trip and stayed in out timeshare for 5 glorious days... or so we thought. Lets start with barren land. What used to be grounds filled with snow at least 6 inches deep is now just dirt. There was no trace of white. No worries, we can still enjoy each other's company. Until... Piper's coughing keeps us up, not to mention vomitting. Poor baby girl. We had the brilliant idea of getting a studio so Pi, you and I slept on the murphy bed. Phoenix and daddy went "camping." As if Piper's lethargy and huge desire to just vege-out was not bad enough, I get sick with unstoppable sneezing, runny nose and fever. Crazy!!! No worries, we forge on because that's how the Jovens roll. Not so fast... daddy was next to get sick. Phoenix, at this point, you were the only genki one. Then, I take you to the zoo, a long time coming for you Phoenix. Piper, you ask to sit down every five minutes. You were a trooper though.
We catch a break when it snows for a good 20 minutes. Daddy takes one for the team and pegs you with snowballs outside. Piper, you are really into just catching snowflakes with your tongue (pretty bird...) The highlight for daddy and I was going to church. The message was about not complaining and it really renewed our spirits. It was fantastic. Afterwards, we eat our lunch at Mc Donalds (Happy Meals for you of course...)
At night, we have our family movie nights. We watched Dolphin Tale and Muppet Babies another night.
Overall, it was an awesome time. Whatever may come our way, we still manage to make the most of it. We are continually blessed.
