This week has been a long one! Coleton suddenly got sick while we were spending the day at Brandons parents with a fever of 102.5 so for quite a few days he was laying around the house not feeling well! After about two days of him not eating of drinking he woke up from a nap screaming in pain and shaking!

Not knowing what to do since i had no car at home i called Brandon in a panic telling him something was wrong and that he needed to come home! We took him to the urgent care to find that he had a really bad ear ache and strep throat!

They gave him a shot of anibiotic and sent us home with pain medication! Coleton was in a rough state at that point.

i was unable to get him to eat or drink for four days and would have to hold him down while he kicked and screamed to give him medicine! It was horrible! He would fall asleep all over the place and was so out of it i cant even explain!
After about five days he finally started to move again so we did what anyone else would do we went camping!!

I know that sounds funny but Brandon had a four day weekend so we had to get out of our house and we thought that Coleton could use some fresh air!

It was really good to get him out he started walking around the campsite, ate some of the snacks we brought and was really happy to be "campin"

We went to a camp site that was about 20 miles from our house but we were on a dirt road for almost 40 minutes because we were in our stratus which is really not an off road vehical.

The weather was perfect about 70's and the colors were changing all over the place (our camera really does not do them justice!

We went on a little hike and picked up firewood and went back to camp!

We went simple and brough hot dogs and buns and then smores for dessert (with all different kinds of candy bars to try them with) and water so there wasnt much for us to bring or clean up. We put the boys to bed and stayed up and chatted at the camp fire. It was a great night the boys slept pretty well since Coleton was sick but we had fun on our first Comstock Family Vacation it was great and we cant wait to do it again next year!
