I Absolutely LOVE This!

I was waiting for this trailer to come out for, what seemed, forever. It's been out for a while now, but I wanted to post it anyway.

For those of you who haven't seen the movies or read the books...you are missing out.

Fireworks!

The boys never got a chance to see fireworks at the cabin, so we took them over to Gavin's parents.  Their neighborhood had a small display they decided to put on.  Everyone brings their fireworks and it was pretty cool.

Go the Distance!

I have a soft spot for causes, especially since I had to do a fundraiser for my cousin. I think it is important as members of the church and as people to give to others in need what we can.

I don't know this boy or anyone involved, but I know how hard it is to see someone you love struggling and being unable to afford life altering treatment. I don't live in Utah and won't be able to attend this event and I know that some of you have the same issue, but there is a donate button on their blog...do what you can.

The CABIN!!!

We just spent 2 weeks in Utah.  First off was the cabin.  There's always something to do...if you like to play games, ride 4 wheelers, go fishing, go shooting, play more games, work, and play even more games!  It's always nice to get up into the mountains and get a little bit of an escape.  There's always a lot of family.  There were 36 people, but believe it or not...that's only the tip of the iceberg...our family is much bigger than that.  Not everyone comes, but it's a little nice because we all fit in the cabin that way!

Medical Update

We'll start with E.  When his surgury was over, the doctor came out and told me that his tonsils were actually the same size but the one was just so impacted that you couldn't tell.  One of his tonsils was pretty scarred from previous infections, but luckily, his adenoids were perfect so they are still there.  His recovery has gone really well.  He never wanted to rest.  We always needed to remind him, "E, lay down.  You're supposed to be resting!"  He's just done really well.
