I am finally going back to work the first of next week. It will only be for part time until my back can handle all of the bending. I am looking forward to getting a pay check again. And so is my bank account.

Ryker is hopefully getting his cast off his arm in three more weeks. He accidentally dunked it in the tub yesterday so that was another trip to the doctor to get a new one put on. We have been so impressed by him. He acts like nothing happened at all. He just keeps doing what he always has done. We constantly have to get after him. He is missing his Kenna now. They sure had fun playing together. We would have kept her but I guess we have to share with Grandma. Thanks Mike and Sha for coming to visit.

Kenzie is keeping everyone busy. She loves her gymnastic class in Idaho Falls. I have to say I wish we would have taken her there years ago. They are very good and she is learning much more than we could have hoped for here in Blackfoot.

Jord is getting ready for track. Today is the first day of practice. I really hope he enjoys it. His trip to Maryland is still a go for this June. He really enjoys this whole wanting to be a doctor thing. In his first responder class they went to ISU and were able to work on a corps. YUK. They went inside and looked at everything and were able to touch and feel different parts. He came home talking a mile a minute. He thoroughly enjoyed it.

Ryker is getting upset he needs my help with some thing. We miss you all and hope to see you soon.

As you have probably all heard Ryker did break his arm. We were getting balloons ready for his birthday and he had piled them all in a pile. He got on the couch and jumped into the pile. He must have landed on a balloon and lost his balance and fell back. He is starting to fill better today. We have to take him into the doctor on Tuesday to get his cast on and X-rays to make sure it is healing right.

Tomorrow I go in for surgery on my back. I am not excited about it at all. I am actually very scared. I just want it over with so I can get back to normal.

I just thought I would write and let every one know. We love you all and miss you. Sha you should be getting a package in the mail soon. Sorry it took me so long. :(
