A Tribute To Lana and Emma

All of us girls that could make it, went to the temple the day that Emma Gibbons had her bone marrow transplant. What a great experience to be surrounded by the love of great friends in such a wonderful place. After the temple we went to lunch at "The Garden" restaurant in Twin Falls for Lisa's birthday. The best part of the day was when we got the news that Emma's BMT went very well and her little brother Ty (her donor) was doing great also. What an ordeal the Gibbons family has been through since Emma's diagnosis! Hopefully the sun will shine on them (literally and figuretively) and they will see continual progress in the future! We love you Lana!

A Quick Getaway!

Can you believe I actually left the house? You'd think I was agrophobic or something! Once Jeff gets home on the weekend the last thing he wants to do is DRIVE anywhere but I really needed an out so we made a quick trip to Burley. We stayed at the Fairfield Inn, went to dinner with our friends the Mallory's, let the kids play and swim, had a great breakfast at the hotel and then.....came home! Such an excitinig life we live. We all really enjoyed a little time away and being back in Burley for a little while.

You've got to be kidding me!

Yes, this actually is my "shy, quiet" child! He came home from school in the afternoon with a MOHAWK! He had stuck his head in the snow and then combed it with his hands into a mohawk. The best part was that we had the Blue and Gold Banquet for scouts that evening and he insisted on leaving his hair this way. Then after the cake walk, he thought it would be fun to do a face plant in his cake! Oh my gosh is this really my child? Well if this is as out of control as he gets, I guess I can handle it! Kaden, you crack me up!
