A Doctor Visit

I worked this morning. Dorian drove up with the kids, and we made the swap. Dorian let me know that Carson said that he had put an eraser up his nose and that he couldn't blow it out. Dorian had said that he couldn't see anything and that it was probably nothing. "It would work itself out."
HA
I had a look up his nose, and I could see a bit of eraser, and I tried to get him to blow it out, but hardly any air would come out as he was trying. His eye was also watering quite a bit as he was trying to blow it out. I asked him if he put the whole eraser in his nose, and he said that he had bit off a piece and put it in because he was trying to get the paper out that he had stuck in there. We were at the mall (that's where we met) and the doctor's office was just around the corner, so I told Dorian I was going. He REALLY advised me not to.
We got to the doctor, paid the $20 co-pay (ERR) and sat down to wait. We were called back 5 minutes later and the doctor had a look at his nose. He pulled out all of the utensils and went to work. He pulled out 2 pieces of eraser and then saw more. He then had to dig deep and he pulled out a wad of paper. Pretty big I thought! Then there was one more piece of eraser.
ALL CLEANED OUT!!!!
When I got home I realized that I had the camera in my purse the whole time, and could've gotten a picture of the debris on the gauze!!! SORRY GUYS (i know you were just dying to see). I'm just glad that all is well. ($20 later)

JUNE 11th and....

SNOW FLURRIES!

It was 36 degrees while I was driving to work this morning, and was snowing up until this afternoon.

Call me crazy but if summer doesn't come soon, I'll be packing up my bags and moving somewhere warmer!!

GRANNY+PAPA=Books+Surprises

Lately when granny has visited us she has brought a book for everyday that she's here. Unfortunately she wasn't able to come this trip, but Papa did, and she didn't fail the kids one bit!!! They are actually a little bit spoiled.
Here are some pictures of the surprises and books that they got this trip around.

SURPRISES: Rocks from Melissa Terry. She picked these up in Cabo San Lucas. (The boys have a rock collection). The other surprise was from Papa. He found sticks and wood for the boys on the beach in Cabo. Carson and James were so excited to have them!



The other surprise was a fishing rod and reel and a net, with a bunch of fish. The rod and the fish are magnetic. They thought this was a great gift.



Here are the books that they got. They just love reading all of their new books! I think I need to add an extra shelves to closet to store more book! The kids now know their Granny as: "THE BOOK GRANNY!"



This is a video of them waiting for their books. Carson is a little sneak and had a little look in Papa suitcase downstairs and KNEW that there were more books to come. :o) He's too smart for his own good.

5.31.02

So basically I have the best friend anyone could ask for! Without me asking she read my last blog and scrounged up some pictures from when we were married.
So now I can say that this was an amazingly awesome day. It's the greatest thing to be sealed for time and all eternity to your best friend. Thanks Dorian for being there for me and the family. We love and appreciate you so much. Thank you for these past six years, and the kids and I are looking forward to many more years to come. WE LOVE YOU!!! (Especially me!)
Happy Anniversary!




6 year Anniversary

On the 31st it was our 6 year wedding anniversary. We got a babysitter and she came and picked them up at noon. We finished cleaning the house, and then we went golfing. This was probably the highlight of my day. It was only my second time going, and I'm not going to lie. For a beginner, I'm not too shabby! I got a couple of bogies and I had a blast.
Then we came home and got ready and left for Idaho Falls. We went to dinner at The Cellar. It was really good, and it was fun spoiling ourselves. Then we left to see Indiana Jones. It was a good movie but I don't like it as much as I liked the other ones.
We had our friends Rocky and Andrea come to our house and watch the kids overnight. WE went and stayed at Le Ritz. It was so nice to be alone for a whole day. It was a much needed get away, and was really refreshing.
I wanted to post wedding pictures of us from 6 years ago, but I don't have my printer/scanner set up. Kinda of a bummer. Oh well. These pictures will have to do, and maybe we'll get wedding ones posted next year. :o)

Two Sundays Ago & Warm River

Two Sundays ago we went for a family drive and a picnic. We got home from church and packed our stuff. Then we headed up to Warm River and ate our food, and then went for a hike. Right as we started out hike I saw a baby snake on the trail. This didn't make Dorian too happy since he's AMAZINGLY afraid of snakes. Luckily we didn't see any more...or the mama! It was a lot of fun and I always love doing things as a family. It seems that with Dorian's crazy work schedule, and mine thrown in there we don't have many days to go and do things. Hopefully there will be many more adventures to come!
