April-May Update

It has been a crazy busy few weeks!


I turned uh... 40 the end of April-- Everyone made it a great day fro me (THANKS) and so it was not as tramatic as I thought it would be. We went to eat and watched movies and I got some great gifts. I am ok with being 40. Mothers Day was a great day as well. My kids are so good to me! And so is my John! I went to a womans retreat the first weekend in May and it was great! Loved it! AND... I started grad school 2 weeks ago! so I am a bit overwhelmed right now!

Riley is done with High school baseball but now is playing on a competition team. I may go broke payin for it all. baseball is not cheap, but he is worth it!

Alex has been getting ready for graduation! can not believe it! He is excited and we are SOO proud of him. We will post pics of his special day! His grandma Page will be here on Tuesday to spend the week with us and go to his graduation.

Kev and Des are thinking of moving to SLC area. (I am kinda sad about that!) They are doing great and look so cute together.

John's back is not been doing well. He just had to go out on a short term disability for about a month in order for the muscle tear he just got last week to heal. He is such a trooper and just keeps trudging along.

Grandma and Cali are doing good. Grandma did have a lil fall last week but seems to be ok. Just slow goin....

KC our 14 yr old cat had to go spend the night at the kitty hospital after getting Kerosene "dumped?" on her. The vet did not think it was an accident. She had a rough few days but seems to be doing better now.

Freckles can hardly walk now and keeps falling down. I think her back legs are not working too well. She is 13 1/2 so I guess it is to be expected. She drinks TONZ of water too....

Gizzy--- Oh gees! I think she is into her terrible 2's! She chewed Rileys mit up last week!! So we just had to spend $90 on a new mit! dang puppy!

So this is the high lights of our last few weeks. :0) Even with all the "stuff" going on we realize we are sooo blessed!! God has his mighty hand in our lives and we are aware of his mighty power in our lives.

PS.... because my computer is MESSED UP it will not let me post pictures right now. SO... I will post them when I can. I gotta take my computer in to be fixed! :0(

HAPPY BIRTHDAY STEVE!!







Today would have been Steve's 41st birthday.... Steve passed away almost 2 yrs ago. I have spent much of today remembering our childhood and how we were so closely bonded. We went through hell together and stuck together through everything. My fondest memories of Steve have to be his sense of humor and his funny noises. Steve could make anyone laugh and feel at ease. Steve could also make some of the funniest noises and statements you have ever heard. Animals loved Steve! Especially cats! Our lil sister Jenny's cat "twinkle Suzie" LOVED Steve! I miss Steve sooo much it makes my heart hurt. I know he is free from the pain he was in for so many years though and that helps. IN HONOR OF STEVE PLEASE! TELL YOUR SIBLINGS AND FAMILY HOW MUCH YOU LOVE THEM TODAY! I LOVE YOU STEVE AND HAPPY BIRTHDAY BRO-- your lil sister.....lala
