Smiles and Sickness

Two really pretty redheads
Ambrey and Alyssa caught Fifth Disease (erythema infectiosum) in April. It is a viral infection that results in a runny/stuffed nose, headache, and fever. When the child is no longer contagious, a rash appears all over their body that can stay for up to one month. The rash gives kids a "slapped cheek" look (bright red cheeks).
Game night with the Elders (shown above as Mr. X is Elder Smith from California).
Ambrey helping out by feeding Anna. What is great about this is that Anna lived through it.
For those who don't know/remember, this knit hat is part of a knit dress that was given to Alyssa when she was a baby. The dress doesn't fit Anna.
