Mission Preparation

Our Julene has been busy this week getting the medical things done

in preparation for sending in her Mission papers!

She has been to the Dentist or the Doctor every day this week.

Today she had the fun of getting her wisdom teeth out.

Glad she's got her bunny for comfort, she's pretty sore!

Dance invitation

Todd walked outside and found this on our front lawn

 A girl was asking him to go to the Sadies Hawkins dance!

 To find out who it is, Todd had to pop the balloons and get a letter from each,

then put them together to spell her name.

But they texted me and said 4 balloons blew away while they were setting it up!

 But there were still enough letters that Todd could figure out

 that it is Jessica Stone!

Margaret's surgery

Our sweet Margaret went in to have her gall bladder removed today,

She has been so miserable, it is good to get this taken care of!

 Before

After

 I felt so bad she had to go through this!

She is so sweet, even in her sleep she kept reaching for my hand

It was successful, 

and a few hours later we were heading home!

She did great!

The Imitator

In preparation for her surgery tomorrow, Margaret has been pumping so that Dustin can have some milk while she is in the hospital. I didn't think Shannon was paying any attention, until I saw her like this:

 She had all the equipment in the right place and was pumping away!

This girl is too cute!!

Heather's First Day of School

Today our Heather started college! She is taking a Certified Nursing Assistant course.

 She is such a cutie, off to her first day of school!

Todd's Homecoming

Todd looked handsome heading off to pick up his date for the Homecoming dance

He asked me to make the corsage for him

Carrots

 This is my first time to successfully grow carrots in my garden.

They were big and sweet

 This was the biggest one, it filled 1 1/2 bottles!

 Heather helped peel 

Most of the carrots came from my Dad's wonderful garden!
