an eventful week

Emmy didn't have school on Monday so I scheduled her for a few appointments so she wouldn't have to miss school for them.  First up was the orthodontist for a wire and color change.  That was quick and painless.  Next up was the allergist.  Emmy was diagnosed with a peanut allergy when she was one, but she's always been sensitive to season changes and animals.  We decided to do some testing to see if we could get her some relief.  Turns out she's allergic to trees, grass, weeds, cats, dogs, horses, mold and dust.  No wonder she's miserable on a daily basis and in new environments other than our house that her immune system is used to.  She's going to start allergy shots and hopefully she'll get some relief!


Of course a treat was in order after enduring that itchy nightmare!


On Tuesday we went to Emmy's school for a pink-out volleyball game and then we went to Bryce's school for a yellow-out volleyball game for childhood cancer to support our friends the Yonces.  I forgot to take pictures!


Jason had a work event on Wednesday and I got to tag along.  It was a beer and BBQ themed dinner at the local botanical gardens.  


Bryce has been practicing/working out with the high school baseball team.  Last week they started a fall world series and he got to play in two games.  Unfortunately, he was hit by a pitch in the hand on Thursday. He's had a lot of bad luck with injuries recently and he was worried it was broken.  We took him to ortho and thankfully its only inflamed cartilage.  That we can work with!  Oh, and he got a mullet this week.  


Bryce went apple picking in the mountains with his girlfriend's family on Saturday and we went to a friend's Brunswick stew event. 


It was a nice fall weekend!
