Braces, Snow & Tumbling

Moriah and her braces! 

BEAUTIFUL!!!

We have had LOTS of SNOW this WINTER!!! 

 Parent observation day at Jacob's tumbling class.  It was so much fun to get to go in and watch him, he was so FUNNY, always looking over at us.

The Manti Temple

Mark and I FINALLY got to attend a session at the Manti Temple.  It is so NICE to have this temple so CLOSE to where we live!!!  I am thankful to our Moriah who held down the fort while we were away!

Jacob's Surgery

Jacob had his tonsils removed after Christmas. He was so BRAVE and is doing Great now!

Daddy getting Jake all ready (he was strictly "Dad" and not "Doc")

This is right before they took our little sweetheart to the OR. They kept asking if someone gave him versed (a sedative)! No, he was just tired, and sad.

After the surgery, just waiting for him to "wake up". The OR crew dressed up his monkey, "Shower", who was the only one allowed back there with him!

All done and headed home!

The saddest part was getting him to take his medicine and then convincing him that when we could see him wincing painfully when he swallowed, it was time for more medicine!

He seemed to get better, then worse on day 6/7 (as far as pain and fussiness go) and then one morning (about day 8 or 9) he woke up without any pain and could eat whatever he wanted! Now you'd never know he even had surgery.
