Kenzie's surgery is scheduled for the 25th of this month. Hopefully she will be back on her ankle in no time. Jord's car is fixed! YA. He sure helps me out with all the running of Makenzie.

Hope all is well for everyone. We miss you all.

Well Jord didn't do quite as good at his Forensics event last weekend. He called me Thursday night wanting me to come up to Rexburg and pick him up. It was too late so the next morning I made the trip up to get him. He was pretty upset. His teacher was trying to console him but to no avail. He has never place lower than third and this time he didn't even make the top 7. I guess all the seven places went to Highland kids. It probably didn't hurt that their coach was the judge. Next his car broke down and is in the shop. He is just taking one hit after another.

Kenzie is going back in today for another x-ray and to schedule her next surgery to remove the screw. She will have to be back on crutches for two weeks after that. She wants it done ASAP so she will be back to walking by the end of the school year.

Ryker is doing great. Preschool, daycare, grandmas and aunt Kimmie's work keep him occupied. He went to the monster trucks this weekend and loved every minute of it. I guess it didn't end till 11:30. He stayed awake the whole time. Troy said that he has never seen so many mullets.

I am at work so I better go.

Not much has happened lately. Jordan did not do as well as expected in his forensics tournament. He lost out the first night and called me at about 8:30 pm wanting me to go get him from Rexburg. I told him it was too late and I would pick him up the next morning. I got there about 9:30 the next morning and he was still upset. His teacher came out and was still trying to comfort him to no avail. I guess all seven spots were awarded to the Highland students whoes coach was the judge. Jordan was upset. He has never received lower than third place and was expecting to take first this time. I guess he does the congress part of forensics and is always put in charge of the event. He is the only sophmore that can do this. I hope he sticks with it next year. It is something he is very good at and when he wins, he loves it.


Kenzie and I go back to the foot doctor tommorrow and get more x-rays of her foot. We will then set up her next surgury to remove the screw. They told her she will be back on crutches for two weeks after the screw is removed. She wants to do it ASAP so she will be back walking on it by the end of the school year. She informed me that today was cheer try outs for the next school year. I asked her if the missed it yet. She said no. At the cheer awards this last weekend she was awarded the safest flyer. What a joke. At least she will be on the mend after this next visit to the hospital. Her friend Morgan still has to wait 3 years to have surgury on her ACL.


Ryker went to the monster trucks with Troy and the boys this weekend. I guess it didn't get over till 11:30 p.m. Ryker stayed awake the whole time. Loving every minute of it. Troy said that he has never seen so many mullets. Ryker is keeping busy going to pre-school and helping aunt Kimmy (Watt) in her flower shop. He was washing windows for her when I took the trip to Rexburg to get Jord.


As for me, I started thinking that I things under control, then other things pop up. I just paid off all but one bill and then Jord's car breaks down, another $1,000.00 bill for my tonsils come in the mail, four months late, Jord is arguing with me over what classes he is going to take for next year, can I just get a break for a little while. The trials a mother has to go through. I am thankfull I have been very blessed with my children. I love them very much.


Janae I am so glad you finally started a Blog. I am sure you are just as busy with your life. It is so good to hear from all of you.
