(This is a pic of the kind of scorpion that stung me.) Sick, huh?
Ok, so Thanksgiving was a nightmare. We went to Arizona for the week and the night we got there, I was stung by a scorpion in our hotel room. Totally random! I was cold, so I went to put something on and the freakin' scorpion was hiding in my sweatshirt when I put it on, and it got me twice on my inner arm. It hurt like a &%*@%$ $*#$&@% . We had to go to the E.R. and I couldn't even walk because it affected my muscular system. The next day my body swelled up and it looked like I was punched in the face. After a couple of days, I was able to walk properly, so we went to this really cool place called Rawhide and it's like this really cool western ghost town with tons of stuff to do for kids. We were having a great time, (that should have tipped me off) until Dall started vomiting like a banshee. It was the night before Thanksgiving. Perfect, right? Then the next morning, Zoe starts in on the whole stomach bug deal which was great (as you can see by the picture below.) Then right before we go to my cousin's to eat, my nephew splits his upper chin open and has to go to the hospital. Mike and I take turns going to my cousin's to eat because someone had to stay with the kids. Mike and I decided we had enough and left that Friday morning. Dall was still sick on the way home so he had a little accident in the car. It was a beautiful thing. P.S. We're no longer celebrating Thanksgiving.

WOW, I thought we had some nightmare vacations. But, this takes the cake. I hope everyone is feeling better now.
Are you feeling better now? Poor Zoe looks so miserable in that pic! The kiddos are getting so big though. I can't wait to see them at Christmas!
So bummed that we could not see you while in AZ, but it was good to see Mike for a bit. By the way, thanks so much for the PJ's for Noah....exactly what he needed...the little weed!! Hope you're all doing better now. Next time we will have to come to Cali to see you guys.
i am never going to AZ..scorpion? seriously? can you please post a pic of swollen sarah? i've got to see that.
Oh Sarah, that sounded awful. I feel your pain though. I swear things like that happen to us all the time. we've done the puking in the car, but never a scorpion. that one was impressive. i think dallin looks like andrew, but maybe that's just me.
So what do you have planned for x-mas? Rattlesnakes?
Nightmare is an understatement!! You poor thing...I'd plan on staying put for Christmas...that's just a suggestion.
That stinks Sarah, I had no idea about the scorpion... we had a few run ins last year with scorpions, makes me wonder why I live here! By the way, try this to access my blog http://olsenfam.blogspot.com and see if that works. Otherwise you have got to send me your email so we can work this out. shireenisbrown@gmail.com.
