Up to now....

And so, here is the feisty little fellow. He still wears a brace, just to remind him wrestling is not acceptable......not that is stops him! but it should!
He is healing relatively well for a child his age.

I guess I'm about up to date now, but don't get you hopes up for this to be a regular happening. I have recently started a class and am working most of the time. I enjoy what I do and hope to be able to get all my classes done in a reasonable time frame. The work I do is with Chad. He has had me doing painting and general cleaning up, you know, peon type of work! But is nice to work with him throughout the day.
The kids are all doing well in school and we are happy.

Month of August 2009

So, August 22, is our anniversary. About 5 pm, Jesse comes in the house, not even really crying. He says his neck hurts. I finally think to take off his shirt. There on his collar bone, I see the problem. I wasn't sure how bad it was but I knew it needed medical attention. So, off we went to the hospital. We went to a small hospital and were there a grand total of 1 hour. I was very thankful for that! He had fractured his right clavical. He was put in an immobilizer and sent home. He sure look pathetic here!

And here. The pathetic look only lasted the one evening. He was good about not moving that arm and seems to be healing up nicely.

Here are some of the magnificent creations the kids make with the dominoes. I don't even think they realize there is a game normally played with them....

First day of school.

I will admit, it was so hectic on the first morning, that I completely forgot about taking pictures. So, I made it up by having them pose after school, there, now everyone knows the secret.

Month of July 2009

Ah, well, it has been an embarrassing long time since I sat down to post. A lot has happened and I will try to consolidate a little, without losing too much importance.

We can start back in July. In no particular order....

Jesse was sooo tired! He fell asleep as he snuck a cookie. He is just too precious to be mad at for long!


















The Fox's, in our ward, put up a zip line for their grandkids, (who only visit once in a while.....I think Bro Fox just likes to play!) So, our kids get together with said grandkids-the Whites- and had a fun time on the new zip line.












We sure miss Rebecca and her kids!!

















Here is one of the things these two played one day. They were looking for something to make missionary tags with, so I provided the real thing. They were very cute little missionaries.




Plenty of other things happened during this month, too bad my memory is so old, I don't remember much past these cute pictures!
