We Made It Back...Barely!

Our trip was going so well that I knew something just had to happen, and it did! We ended up taking Ally to the Ruidoso Emergency Room because I could tell something wasn't right...not eating, not sleeping well, extremely fussy...and I was right. Double ear-infection and very red throat. At least they got us in and out fairly quickly, for an emergency room!
Ally did as well as she could of considering the circumstances. Here she is waiting to see the doctor.
The ride home was LONG!!!! We decided to go straight to College Station so we could attend the first Aggie game, which was probably not the best idea with a little girl who doesn't feel well and doesn't like sleeping in the car! It was a tough 14 hours!!! Carter managed to stay in pretty good spirits as long as the DVD player was working.
Here is a picture of Ally taking one of her two mini naps on the trip home.

After our disappointing loss to Arkansas St., and Hurricane Gustav lurking in the Gulf, we decided to go ahead and evacuate to Fort Worth on Sunday, even though Sam wanted to stay for opening day of dove season. I promised him he can go every other time we're there to cheer on the Aggies...hopefully next game we won't run out of time! :)
