I always enjoyed doing the Friday Fives and have a few minutes to post and will take advantage of that since it's been a long while!
 
1. Breaking Bad
Ok so my husband and I were a little bored and thought we'd check out this Breaking Bad show on Netflix that everyone was talking about.  ADDICTED!  We ended up watching it over anything else that was on.  It was sad haha but we loved it!  The final season comes out on Netflix next week.  We were very close to buying it on Itunes or amazon instant downloads but we couldn't get it to work on the Playstation.  My husband is more excited about it then me, he has kept the countdown going. 
 
2. Something that ISN'T a Friday Fave is Double Ear Infections!
My poor not so baby, baby currently has a double ear infection!  She has been fighting a cough for over a week and I was hoping to fight it on our own.  I did a few breathing treatments at home and it started to get gunk out but then was having her cough so hard she was throwing up a few times.  I eventually called the doctor and got her in.  Turns out she has a double ear infection.  She thankfully has been her onery, wild, little self so that is nice but boy is her personality shining through, especially that Irish attitude she has inherited from her father :)---thats what I think anyways!  Her favorite words is NO!  She has a few times thrown a toy because she was mad haha.  She has no patience and needs whatever the issue is to be fixed right then!  The other day she was trying to get a book out but her suitcase was in the way.  She just started screaming to say the least, to have me move the suitcase.  Attitude!  It just cracks me up more then anything, which is good right?!
 
3. Hilarious Commercials
You can't watch this and not laugh! I came across a lesson on another blog I follow and this is a commercial they used as persuasive media.  I think its hilarious and I hope--no I know my kids will too!  I use videos often to practice a reading strategy and they love it.  It is different and keeps them engaged which is major!  I hope they enjoy this lesson I do and am thankful to have amazing teachers out there with blogs I can follow for ideas!!
Back to the commercial though, not sure I'll ever jump on the minivan wago but this video is definitely convincing!!
 
4. Short work weeks!
This week we didn't have school on Monday.  It was such a nice break to have a long weekend!  I was thankful to get some more bonding time with Daylynn, especially with her being sickly lately.  It is also nice because since she has been sick, she has been waking up in the night and only wanting to sleep in mama's arms.  While I love this snuggle time, mama needs her sleep and can't sleep in the chair anymore :)  It was worth it though!
 
5. FAMILY
My sister, niece, and brother-in-law came to Great Bend this past Sunday.  We have only been going back to Wamego/Manhattan once a month to try to save some money.  I really miss my family and friends so it hasn't been easy!  My family have only came to town a few times, mostly because we have NO room at our house for them all to stay so it was really nice for them to come spend the day with us!  We went to my gym and went swimming and then got ice cream!  It was a perfect relaxing day with family, untillll my sister started getting sick before leaving!  We just need to get over this nasty sickness that is going around all of us!
 
On a side note as an update--
We are doing about the same!  I am ready for summer to enjoy a nice long vacation-other than summer school.  PLUS this summer we have some big plans and are going to Florida!!  His mom's family are going to stay at a resort in Florida as a celebration for 60th and 30th.  One of the 30ths is my hubbys!  We are getting so old!  Patrick and I never got a honeymoon so you can say I am very excited for a little getaway- even if its not just us 2 :) 
That's about it in the McGurk world! Life is pretty fast paced these days and I need to remember to slow down and enjoy everything!
