ON THE WAY TO TX!!





HILLARIOUS SIGN IN Canon City!!




WOW, the last week has come and gone in a blink of an eye! We left Utah early on the morning of the 4th, we drove away leaving behind us lots of snow! We drove to Canon City, CO to stay with my best friend Elise and her family. We ended up taking Addie to the hospital on Weds night there in Colorado, she has an ear infection and had croup so bad she couldn't breathe they had to give her a steroid to take away the swelling in her throat. Which made her tummy VERY SICK! Elise's husband Ivan gave Addie a blessing, I am so grateful he has the authority to have given her the blessing. Thank you thank you Ivan! We left Colorado on Thursday morning and headed for Weatherford Oklahoma, it was a beautiful drive. We got there and stayed with another good friends parents. They have the MOST beautiful home I have seen in a while. It is amazing! I was so grateful to have friends and family to stay with during the trip, it helped the stress dwindle away. We had many people before we left give us gifts to help us on our way so we ended up not having to spend hardly anything the entire trip. Gas went down the entire trip. right now it is at 1.94!!!!! How much fun we had during this trip!! The van was full, and we had alot of crazy things go on....but all in all it was a great trip....oh, we got here to Belton on Friday afternoon, we got to Rylan's school and got the papers to get him started on Monday. Saturday was the schools' annual Family Fun Festival, it was alot of fun!! The kids had a great time!

Monday came and Rylan went to school back at Leon Heights!!

He came home with the HUGEST smile, he had gotten 100% on his first math test at school! He has a male teacher named Mr. Willie. He is a great man! We are happy to have him as Rylan's new teacher.
Our ward is happy to have us back, and we are just thrilled to be back home.
We have great neighbors here at the apartment, and we are excited to prepare for Wesley to get home!! WAHOOOOO!! Until next time here are pictures of the trip. We had a great time!
We miss you all (ya'll) in utah! Hope you enjoyed my little ditty. It is GREAT TO BE BACK!!!

Hey, Grandma is finally in the blogging world!!!! I will have to work on my page next week. Things went well with the surgery, sometimes when the pain is real bad I wonder what the heck I did to myself. It will be a good thing when all is said and done. Miss you guys so much. I am turning into a "recliner potatoe"! Love you all! Love Grandma
