She arrived late August and was just a few days late. The recovery has been a little harder this time, as I hemorrhaged about two hours after delivery, but things are going much better now. The older kids LOVE having Katie around and want to kiss her and hold her all the time. Honestly, they are soo much help. They bring me what I need and have really stepped up to take up the extra slack where I've had to let go a little. My wonderful husband has also been AMAZING through the whole thing.<br />We have been soo blessed with this sweet little baby in our lives and are so thankful that she is here safe and sound.Shane & Lainahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03673917201714378473noreply@blogger.com14tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5208628886506156926.post-55925357139064224452010-11-13T19:23:00.000-08:002010-11-13T19:44:13.205-08:00November catch up!<div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_aPvCm4VaHH5yMO-uCoCJzjmpsiuUenQ_sGxLeCItQIrl0dAKb6tDTVselLAm9XqzNpzZ57oowWTM_dQdER_NA6VTe8gwbXGYcVc4YeO2iDVqaq7dqYrtqZPsclcJXGnT84Pe4NUt_6U/s1600/IMG_0181.JPG"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_aPvCm4VaHH5yMO-uCoCJzjmpsiuUenQ_sGxLeCItQIrl0dAKb6tDTVselLAm9XqzNpzZ57oowWTM_dQdER_NA6VTe8gwbXGYcVc4YeO2iDVqaq7dqYrtqZPsclcJXGnT84Pe4NUt_6U/s320/IMG_0181.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5539243278266963330" border="0" />So here's what's been going on with the Lefler's.

For some reason he seems to really enjoy arm injuries. In Kindergarten he broke each arm once. The right arm was broken clear through and he had to be put out to have it moved back into place.<br />Well, his luck has struck AGAIN. Last Tuesday, he slipped on the stairs and landed on his right arm. He jumped up and was fine until a couple hours later. Then the pain began. Then next morning he work up in horrible pain and was fevered, so off to the doctor we went. X-rays and an exam and there was no broken arm...WHAT???? That's right, no broken arm. So we went home with a splint and an appointment to come back in 10 days. Well, since then he has had a fever on and off for days and has been in CONSTANT pain. Ibuprofen every fours hours and he was still miserable.<br />By Tuesday of this week, Austin and I had had enough. So back to the doctor we went. More x-rays and still the bone is fine, but they were pretty sure there might be a blood clot inside the arm. Again...WHAT??? That word was enough to send me into panic mode. We had an ultrasound and determined there was a mass in the arm, but not a blood clot (or at least there's only a 3% chance it is a blood clot). The specialist thinks it is a ganglion cyst. They sometimes reabsorb back into the muscle tissue, but sometimes have to be surgically removed.<br />So we have an appointment with the specialist in 2 weeks...nice huh! Hopefully in the meantime no permanent damage is done. I know, I am a little dramatic, it's been a long week!Shane & Lainahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03673917201714378473noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5208628886506156926.post-18497637843929883482009-10-22T19:25:00.000-07:002009-10-22T19:36:34.378-07:00Austin is 8!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhhK95hgxO6MxdXZ_4Sfz5CffdVEcvmLjYE8pR58j-Dp2Wr7jXknn7ki3E8EaHb68P15oOv0LWEsWJyfRIXq9JwkLfJwhs5e-dg9PcsZfjo15E95o0ewYCIw4iAL79irYnbGwPL17eiVms/s1600-h/DSC_0280.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhhK95hgxO6MxdXZ_4Sfz5CffdVEcvmLjYE8pR58j-Dp2Wr7jXknn7ki3E8EaHb68P15oOv0LWEsWJyfRIXq9JwkLfJwhs5e-dg9PcsZfjo15E95o0ewYCIw4iAL79irYnbGwPL17eiVms/s320/DSC_0280.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5395616147352506082" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwtlVqKRJ44h7kivNqv2hl8c4JVFOjowwWIK9ewdfJ9vFdeyDgegI-BI3-k1-MsjzGHHM1-013tJwZm_0Y228o6o-_4kV-3T03Zycs888G26FRLjV4HxB8nzYb7S5uWuLTeRGWMt1qblg/s1600-h/DSC_0274.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwtlVqKRJ44h7kivNqv2hl8c4JVFOjowwWIK9ewdfJ9vFdeyDgegI-BI3-k1-MsjzGHHM1-013tJwZm_0Y228o6o-_4kV-3T03Zycs888G26FRLjV4HxB8nzYb7S5uWuLTeRGWMt1qblg/s320/DSC_0274.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5395616137945426498" border="0" /></a>So, I can't believe my Austin is 8. Where does the time go????? He had a friend party tonight and this was the cake. I thought it was amazing. Shane works with a lady who makes them and she did a great job. Obviously the theme of the party was Super Mario Bros. and WOW... a room full of 8 year old boys was more than enough fun. Austin had a GREAT time and I am exhausted.

I am in love with my puppy. I never knew I had it in me to be a dog lover, but I love my Lizzy. She can sit and lay down now too...she's super smart. In fact, Shane was teasing me when I was bragging about her and said she's so smart she can even bite and poop as well (ha ha ha, funny Shane)! We LOVE having a dog!<br /><br />Just on a side note, I just got called to be back in the Young Womens organization and I'm so excited. I get to work with the Beehives...wahoo!!! I will totally miss Primary, that's kind of my comfort zone, guess there's something new for me to learn.<br /><br />Oh and we just got back from a B-Day party for sweet Tiffany Searle...I couldn't ever sing Happy Birthday without bawling like a baby. What a great event! Happy Birthday Tiff, we love you!Shane & Lainahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03673917201714378473noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5208628886506156926.post-2019931740764987952009-09-11T07:07:00.000-07:002009-09-11T07:24:02.956-07:00A little seriousness!So I just have to voice my opinion for a minute. As many of you know this past week a speech was given by our President to the school children in the country. Many, many people didn't want the kids to watch. I know that we all get to have our own opinion, but I was really hit hard by an email message that our school principal sent out...in my opinion she is very wise. She said ..."<span><span style="font-size:100%;"><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;">Certainly, as part of our school curriculum we teach about the Executive Branch of our government and the importance of respecting the office of the President of our country.<span> </span>Someday, all of our students are going to have a teacher, or a boss, or a political leader that they don't like.<span> </span>I hope that they aren't learning that it's o.k. to disrespect or to not still listen to those people." Go Mrs. Crandall!!!<br /><br />All though I may not agree with what is happening in our government (have I ever?), at a certain point isn't it my responsibility as a citizen of this country to teach my children to show respect and act accordingly. At first even the jokes about Obama were funny, but now, I just feel like I owe it to my children to act like the adult I am. I don't want them to hear me talking bad about anyone...especially someone we should be respectful of. Now don't get me wrong, I know sometimes the people "in charge" don't earn the respect they are given...however, I think respect can still be given to the position.<br /><br />It seems lately that my children are like little sponges...even more than usual. I have heard things repeated to me that I have said and that others around me have said, and I'm not so sure I like that coming from my kids. Almost everything our kids learn will come from home and I am making a new goal to be better aware of the information I am passing along to them. I would hate for them to grow into the obnoxious adults I come in contact with a lot these days (you know the ones that are never happy, and problems are never of their own making, no teacher is good enough, etc.)<br /><br />WOW, I know...think about it! <br /></span></span></span>Shane & Lainahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03673917201714378473noreply@blogger.com9tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5208628886506156926.post-85751264924886401322009-08-17T08:27:00.001-07:002009-08-17T08:35:13.688-07:00Meet Lizzy!<div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHDy08b8BgWEK_UvX-hZovEgE3TW4TPGNrlMGzUVjYDOy9ES44LwzVTB4NBlfQv4rDgCdvq4eaoa9d5c_x44y8Kg80SbJzFe4VpgROdhdcOHc8OuZ6TcfM8T5AWLyO4k39Vq3OxOKXvtQ/s1600-h/DSC_0119.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHDy08b8BgWEK_UvX-hZovEgE3TW4TPGNrlMGzUVjYDOy9ES44LwzVTB4NBlfQv4rDgCdvq4eaoa9d5c_x44y8Kg80SbJzFe4VpgROdhdcOHc8OuZ6TcfM8T5AWLyO4k39Vq3OxOKXvtQ/s320/DSC_0119.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5370955632102094514" border="0" /></a><br />Austin with Lizzy<br /><br /><br /><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_D0enw8Caj8Qvp8JwqxrWhefll5FVaDnkqikDqWIliJuvo52xFAFoIZvnGvEh6_VvT8ht4NlTRCwW8C14ZENMfsakD8NVQ20irIz6gVfgzlniN4yEWbIpzxxKSpS0yD3gTVLHU3fMFK0/s1600-h/DSC_0125.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_D0enw8Caj8Qvp8JwqxrWhefll5FVaDnkqikDqWIliJuvo52xFAFoIZvnGvEh6_VvT8ht4NlTRCwW8C14ZENMfsakD8NVQ20irIz6gVfgzlniN4yEWbIpzxxKSpS0yD3gTVLHU3fMFK0/s320/DSC_0125.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5370955620829838210" border="0" /></a><br />Morgan<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkPkMco4MGAeEGguQDE1erBxTteuYiPmI3Z6X1uMlir8hKGXYk_Hhjaz7fgrdv5GzA__7TLe8WDRlG2mOL7jrUX0E8w-zS-MBPHbWP9RDk7mH5Oq72ClKbxrvZvRXSYx4VZmlxQn7fNm4/s1600-h/DSC_0133.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkPkMco4MGAeEGguQDE1erBxTteuYiPmI3Z6X1uMlir8hKGXYk_Hhjaz7fgrdv5GzA__7TLe8WDRlG2mOL7jrUX0E8w-zS-MBPHbWP9RDk7mH5Oq72ClKbxrvZvRXSYx4VZmlxQn7fNm4/s320/DSC_0133.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5370955611527281682" border="0" /></a><br />Allee<br /><br /><br /><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEivk2RkjWHJwhmb8LsQTQapTPpksndu0raKHdcrv2Zc0FvyFSS28W8JTc-By354RajQttmDeFRL-ZANE3NcWy7mW-R3V0P7VpWDmsS3teLEeBC86Jva4-fWK8xGqMgzIleVD_dUFdmj6KI/s1600-h/DSC_0113.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEivk2RkjWHJwhmb8LsQTQapTPpksndu0raKHdcrv2Zc0FvyFSS28W8JTc-By354RajQttmDeFRL-ZANE3NcWy7mW-R3V0P7VpWDmsS3teLEeBC86Jva4-fWK8xGqMgzIleVD_dUFdmj6KI/s320/DSC_0113.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5370955606456980274" border="0" /></a>Lizzy!<br /><br /><br /><div style="text-align: left;">We finally took that big step as a family and got a puppy.

The main reason is that I have been having too much fun! Thanks to Sally and her fabulouse fieldtrips. Thanks Sally!!!!!<br /><br />The other reason I have been neglectful is that I have been taking care of my parents a lot!. It all started with my mom having surgery on her foot. I had planned to go to Fillmore to help them out for a few days. Well, to make a long story short, my dad had some MAJOR health complications while I was there and it just went down hill super fast. He almost bleed to death and spent a while in ICU. He was able to come home and is recovering well now. SHEESH, it was scary!!!! I've decided that I'm the bad luck charm in my family, because when something bad happens, it seems to always happen on my watch...what's that all about????? Anyway, I have been back again for a few days and both my parents seem to be doing much better now. It's still gonna be a long road to recovery, but at least they're on the mend.<br /><br />The pictures are from a few of the activities we have participated in this summer. <br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDG7ERo8EXmoVIEVLtbIQebV-_y6oNyNeKl46sptv7Bx9bcfUoWFK16gpT-66XXJPUDKNo4HxWGe94x2Ag4sYghR2bed4W1sXORNJeYnIb3d3lrb8345ivBZCl3kA9AqIOR7SdhVH6Gmw/s1600-h/IMG_0166.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDG7ERo8EXmoVIEVLtbIQebV-_y6oNyNeKl46sptv7Bx9bcfUoWFK16gpT-66XXJPUDKNo4HxWGe94x2Ag4sYghR2bed4W1sXORNJeYnIb3d3lrb8345ivBZCl3kA9AqIOR7SdhVH6Gmw/s320/IMG_0166.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5369270971093016674" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7d3YHF9fq15Ws2xU1JLvtamg3a-73wQq8KmMR0b-7fvR2aH6IvEZcuq5cObdXfxqd7MabK6-eWN7CkiQE6arhYRsxIjlAOrGl-0Pg6N59431A1nMhw_BvLy3unHAxVEpuAYoJczI8ptA/s1600-h/IMG_0162.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7d3YHF9fq15Ws2xU1JLvtamg3a-73wQq8KmMR0b-7fvR2aH6IvEZcuq5cObdXfxqd7MabK6-eWN7CkiQE6arhYRsxIjlAOrGl-0Pg6N59431A1nMhw_BvLy3unHAxVEpuAYoJczI8ptA/s320/IMG_0162.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5369270962781964722" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgvr_Sk0AilpU5WUAFAzLiR7E7oDLLI-8X11gU2ikwBJmzHI5TYDDG6pOuXMvFcXOkmBc7foBXk2fBOWsRXR7N9xUtxIfEIIAKqPRqpwn3Dlev_hmwagX2ytptCMD7YZ572lk01ayyGvc8/s1600-h/IMG_0164.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgvr_Sk0AilpU5WUAFAzLiR7E7oDLLI-8X11gU2ikwBJmzHI5TYDDG6pOuXMvFcXOkmBc7foBXk2fBOWsRXR7N9xUtxIfEIIAKqPRqpwn3Dlev_hmwagX2ytptCMD7YZ572lk01ayyGvc8/s320/IMG_0164.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5369270956293904146" border="0" /></a><br /><br />This picture is from our fieldtrip to Kennecott...wow that was cool.

We got there on Friday afternoon. We ventured to the childrens parade and then played games and had treats. Then Saturday morning was the parade...the kids got to ride in the parade this year and they had a BLAST!!! Then we went to the park for more games, snow cones and more fun. We just hung out all afternoon with the family.<br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiIxv5dx5syr9h70pAwVM3YtODWJfC6HE5VIEQgBKd3I0h8-7vqyWSnNoqh9uUWYMFG9nIjRvGcOCWOV7y2pqZ1VOHyhg96qw1hhLk6neBD3Xp95HdY4X7j2igXHG2gV7cwC-62hg3bT2E/s1600-h/IMG_0133.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiIxv5dx5syr9h70pAwVM3YtODWJfC6HE5VIEQgBKd3I0h8-7vqyWSnNoqh9uUWYMFG9nIjRvGcOCWOV7y2pqZ1VOHyhg96qw1hhLk6neBD3Xp95HdY4X7j2igXHG2gV7cwC-62hg3bT2E/s320/IMG_0133.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5355142927649043314" border="0" /></a>This is the kids riding on the little buggy with Uncle Morgan...our "Real Cowboy"<br /><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZ0Fx44HF0EVaNdI6kMx-Z7xJmqohZWQiYFEnHRN3R_fNYX8arNB5pE4NfaUWdhgHGomhSBKdMbyTeqDbJgJJ8cj797itSahF31iP773jL5wncsh8LT0BmZMH2p0d0fCRqf_IDLqqlfC4/s1600-h/IMG_0112.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZ0Fx44HF0EVaNdI6kMx-Z7xJmqohZWQiYFEnHRN3R_fNYX8arNB5pE4NfaUWdhgHGomhSBKdMbyTeqDbJgJJ8cj797itSahF31iP773jL5wncsh8LT0BmZMH2p0d0fCRqf_IDLqqlfC4/s320/IMG_0112.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5355142922412013986" border="0" /></a>The wagon in the parade (my dad built the wagon and trained the horses...I have to brag)<br /><br /><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicodmqjIq3Fpub0HWEUs9iq7X8j1KtPVSYk_u4NCgL6hj1QSRwgwpnWMGEEktiREXDtPjthcvPhjs9e6sOAH9HIHIfgZoUAL4rIUM_U7KIaXXtE8kw34nyy0jRPgnf6Oatcok23B54WwY/s1600-h/IMG_0111.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicodmqjIq3Fpub0HWEUs9iq7X8j1KtPVSYk_u4NCgL6hj1QSRwgwpnWMGEEktiREXDtPjthcvPhjs9e6sOAH9HIHIfgZoUAL4rIUM_U7KIaXXtE8kw34nyy0jRPgnf6Oatcok23B54WwY/s320/IMG_0111.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5355142871233069586" border="0" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTZrvVa9ne1RrYExTJZSK5Q92LhixunjLI_XCKhFU1c4wHNDqXVvdwViOrPdo6-Ac52BazvNk0asukpAZimowGGRjjiwRL5cgXZA8Ooc7vjHi3AoNSWMKymJG1njIn8AeET8fLZivhip0/s1600-h/IMG_0098.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTZrvVa9ne1RrYExTJZSK5Q92LhixunjLI_XCKhFU1c4wHNDqXVvdwViOrPdo6-Ac52BazvNk0asukpAZimowGGRjjiwRL5cgXZA8Ooc7vjHi3AoNSWMKymJG1njIn8AeET8fLZivhip0/s320/IMG_0098.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5355142867453518850" border="0" /></a>Allee got a VIP ride on Johnny...he's a "BIG BOY"<br /><br /><div style="text-align: left;">I have to say, the Fireworks show was the best one yet.

I woke up Friday and my world was literally spinning. In the past I have been known to laugh at this very illness because it seems so totally LAME!!! I'm here to say very LOUDLY (can you hear me now?) that vertigo is a REAL illness, not just some made up excuse.<br />Over the past few days, there have been many people ask what causes vertigo. I can't honestly say I know the real cause, but I'm gonna guess at a few of them.<br />Here goes: stress (caused by the fact that the neighbor kid fell off the tramp last week and broke his arm), stress (caused by the fact that no matter what I do, someone isn't happy), stress (caused by helping plan and orchestrate a frozen meal trade...WOW is all I'm gonna say), stress (caused by stress), stress (caused by nothing besides my own brain and the workings therein), stress (caused by summers with all the kids home all day).<br />Is that enough of a reason for vertigo??? Not sure, but it sure worked in my case.<br /><br />The best part of the whole things was when Allee was tired on Monday and she came to me and said "Mom, my head is busy!" She cracks me up. I think a few people might remember about 6 months ago, Allee was spinning in the living room here at home, she stopped for a minute and while laughing she said "I'm gettin BUSY!" Apparently busy really means dizzy. It was seriously hilarious. Probably had to be there, but Monday was a sweet little reminder of that incident.Shane & Lainahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03673917201714378473noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5208628886506156926.post-2543760217181698392009-06-18T08:57:00.001-07:002009-06-18T09:02:58.918-07:00Summer Camp!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9v2V2ZHQgOem5uz56tI3YdhMly9KUFh_4Vk5yE7C-xMqxnlMUvKAzvXXTeauDQ5dlZHBh9_xepXbZNW4WtIoFREmEKVTmgEb0QnEFPVYT8QjHolucMcPw6nuRjym2MKllfdqq7r_M7KE/s1600-h/071c0598pm.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 170px; height: 91px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9v2V2ZHQgOem5uz56tI3YdhMly9KUFh_4Vk5yE7C-xMqxnlMUvKAzvXXTeauDQ5dlZHBh9_xepXbZNW4WtIoFREmEKVTmgEb0QnEFPVYT8QjHolucMcPw6nuRjym2MKllfdqq7r_M7KE/s320/071c0598pm.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5348698487422605330" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjC1KvTULNN_8dUQge6pyAPCUNuQ5xT7a7JGB_8qGFqJLKbgTcexxlQLjp-5ywPTXrMlzF9h3BWY34ah0kHk28ttUPjwzs8gMCGMqGT4IoFeznBSVP5opArt6F8YteFJxICRUf0t1Y8f70/s1600-h/039c0204ll.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 113px; height: 170px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjC1KvTULNN_8dUQge6pyAPCUNuQ5xT7a7JGB_8qGFqJLKbgTcexxlQLjp-5ywPTXrMlzF9h3BWY34ah0kHk28ttUPjwzs8gMCGMqGT4IoFeznBSVP5opArt6F8YteFJxICRUf0t1Y8f70/s320/039c0204ll.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5348698484631970578" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhgm2TESqdeEYpWWVjAyHCQ19gz_dlRo2vIciSL03lJRq3dE0tqnVmoniakEBLI2tUZ0XrNp9ysiGNGezY7RfEVtgjRbr706O8ya8EAK6ECFLYg0QiHNG1ek8wMGKchE_Jw4wA7hiqj7WY/s1600-h/usa-map-flag.png"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 142px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhgm2TESqdeEYpWWVjAyHCQ19gz_dlRo2vIciSL03lJRq3dE0tqnVmoniakEBLI2tUZ0XrNp9ysiGNGezY7RfEVtgjRbr706O8ya8EAK6ECFLYg0QiHNG1ek8wMGKchE_Jw4wA7hiqj7WY/s320/usa-map-flag.png" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5348698479449862514" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjndWT4R-Dgoa-RivcvLoEhyphenhyphenN9qOCbad0yj6GaR_wge_5dp2A8dDhYS_kXzdN8FFRpN3x7kLyPET7ddMAuEn4o7m1MLIEfI6fJs-a6zhlXWE3ke4uey4qkFjyOaxJMAgp1jOinbJNPZJN4/s1600-h/TN_FRANCE_23-10-07_05.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 84px; height: 150px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjndWT4R-Dgoa-RivcvLoEhyphenhyphenN9qOCbad0yj6GaR_wge_5dp2A8dDhYS_kXzdN8FFRpN3x7kLyPET7ddMAuEn4o7m1MLIEfI6fJs-a6zhlXWE3ke4uey4qkFjyOaxJMAgp1jOinbJNPZJN4/s320/TN_FRANCE_23-10-07_05.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5348698477838439538" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhE9yN8riLns9UwgaV2HyOfEuIZweLHdnQamVyp7ExSbKxQPBK8M4IuCnJRJqaflSRyrpeMJ5Z9hxAt2q1WvSEmviSpnSU5TPwvC9TudfsDxvHZHBJhFJ_OqxzO946sZQhFe1bI6EJ_zRw/s1600-h/china_great_wall_s.gif"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 215px; height: 113px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhE9yN8riLns9UwgaV2HyOfEuIZweLHdnQamVyp7ExSbKxQPBK8M4IuCnJRJqaflSRyrpeMJ5Z9hxAt2q1WvSEmviSpnSU5TPwvC9TudfsDxvHZHBJhFJ_OqxzO946sZQhFe1bI6EJ_zRw/s320/china_great_wall_s.gif" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5348698473309529170" border="0" /></a><br />So this summer I am trying something a little different. In late July, I am having a summer camp at my house. It's for ages 3-7 and it's called "5 Countries in 5 days"<br />We will be traveling to 5 different countries in our imaginations. We will have a snack, craft, games, and stories from the USA, Mexico, Australia, France and China.<br />I'm SO excited to do this camp, we are going to have a blast! If you know anyone interested, let me know so I can get them a registration form!!!Shane & Lainahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03673917201714378473noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5208628886506156926.post-40809795215685418312009-06-15T08:19:00.000-07:002009-06-15T08:26:49.400-07:00Timp Cave<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh5k3vTl06BR6VF5dclgHHkdDlSTwqLdgHhwAwzsQOesxnGJKplUhnwBTIUVHKVPCxN9vAH88wWCQvmJbbs7S71HsrUCAIQ6LPWiwL_3YTN2GQvnxcxRt2N5ecB5qsChdIKqHgPdcy3eNI/s1600-h/IMG_0075.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh5k3vTl06BR6VF5dclgHHkdDlSTwqLdgHhwAwzsQOesxnGJKplUhnwBTIUVHKVPCxN9vAH88wWCQvmJbbs7S71HsrUCAIQ6LPWiwL_3YTN2GQvnxcxRt2N5ecB5qsChdIKqHgPdcy3eNI/s320/IMG_0075.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5347576042825832226" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhaLE8lI-JcJADOmCLIBRXhudtZe474MNVB6zyBtECv3WaLdJUy1qHi_lwp5VceoHJ8tOPuccb8oQAR5RnwveNsDjp-K6p5oVjjqtLGsoRJNKcesFRFyHKazieUx-ABs1a0aCn1OdRD_jI/s1600-h/IMG_0071.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhaLE8lI-JcJADOmCLIBRXhudtZe474MNVB6zyBtECv3WaLdJUy1qHi_lwp5VceoHJ8tOPuccb8oQAR5RnwveNsDjp-K6p5oVjjqtLGsoRJNKcesFRFyHKazieUx-ABs1a0aCn1OdRD_jI/s320/IMG_0071.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5347576039823593794" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjHtM8JD8qateLKjQPfBzTzeOEmG3W3sH1cAdLpc2OP6Vsooi1PcaO_4bB4o3aiqelYuJyRj30pbY_JPdbVyoFtGwcsCzDV6_gEeGpOAn3ks0ldFh8eosq2TgmWvarYcmCcnqRQDBruPNI/s1600-h/IMG_0065.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjHtM8JD8qateLKjQPfBzTzeOEmG3W3sH1cAdLpc2OP6Vsooi1PcaO_4bB4o3aiqelYuJyRj30pbY_JPdbVyoFtGwcsCzDV6_gEeGpOAn3ks0ldFh8eosq2TgmWvarYcmCcnqRQDBruPNI/s320/IMG_0065.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5347576030120857282" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCQ66DsqM6EqPpL_x1APovFv09Xlg_q9eNuk7suXNwDYyWdcRK_CGMoK8TVfPRUqrDt5gRY1gTEccw2_jfNIo_fSdRaEMsoAzkhM7O2NOj1g2ikRd8-O0qPB0vTG_KSZC7_8lVxRXPxSU/s1600-h/IMG_0063.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCQ66DsqM6EqPpL_x1APovFv09Xlg_q9eNuk7suXNwDYyWdcRK_CGMoK8TVfPRUqrDt5gRY1gTEccw2_jfNIo_fSdRaEMsoAzkhM7O2NOj1g2ikRd8-O0qPB0vTG_KSZC7_8lVxRXPxSU/s320/IMG_0063.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5347576029086959954" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjyfgGz5-undEBfY-3aO7mSSj8mfsz9i86-BpoMJrJCqtOiu1P1BErNKu7svUC2TtSpN77Pbr1HOZSbAPA1hrVNn7RX6z-cxxTTpD1h6JHGhxX05_gX1KIUOkIVmVvl1Oi-3zmcJeYc1Tk/s1600-h/IMG_0058.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjyfgGz5-undEBfY-3aO7mSSj8mfsz9i86-BpoMJrJCqtOiu1P1BErNKu7svUC2TtSpN77Pbr1HOZSbAPA1hrVNn7RX6z-cxxTTpD1h6JHGhxX05_gX1KIUOkIVmVvl1Oi-3zmcJeYc1Tk/s320/IMG_0058.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5347576017025506338" border="0" /></a><br />So we ventured to Timp Cave on Friday. I was feeling brave going without Shane, and thanks to many great friends, we made it up and back unscathed. Well, almost unscathed...I'm sure all my friends think I am CRAZY, which I am. I had to hold onto Morgan and Allee the WHOLE TIME! I was not about to let go and witness them falling of the edge (if you've done the hike, you know what I'm talking about).<br />Anyway, we did have a good time and the kids thought the cave was amazing. Thanks to all my helpers...you know who you are.Shane & Lainahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03673917201714378473noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5208628886506156926.post-44934212274403607112009-06-05T08:43:00.000-07:002009-06-05T08:56:00.841-07:00Flood Irrigation<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJRG1PoVM-NHk3KcD6fT6m3m47TI3l5oHsbm85_O721O2iVJ7QIQelirxh52dgUuqFuJZ3Lh2gR3aCRt3X03BC0yuJUPqSWRcY3UoI-3VPaqZM_vOCcBNzpNOPIqLAeiya6y95eyQMlgU/s1600-h/DSC_0040.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 214px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJRG1PoVM-NHk3KcD6fT6m3m47TI3l5oHsbm85_O721O2iVJ7QIQelirxh52dgUuqFuJZ3Lh2gR3aCRt3X03BC0yuJUPqSWRcY3UoI-3VPaqZM_vOCcBNzpNOPIqLAeiya6y95eyQMlgU/s320/DSC_0040.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5343871830544678194" border="0" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: center;">Cute Jeremiah enjoying the outdoors!<br /><br /><br /><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghRaVJRgPkRIewJbsheGNaE45Qwk_sIOajbD4InQ957wclvE3lUswz0niJ3XVsExeYmu-tMA0nNhDuY_TeBzC5XPH0j0nrbNsuyMgpjW24kF8uKyYoi6hVjBJ4odG3LismtOq-qHdCbLY/s1600-h/DSC_0029.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghRaVJRgPkRIewJbsheGNaE45Qwk_sIOajbD4InQ957wclvE3lUswz0niJ3XVsExeYmu-tMA0nNhDuY_TeBzC5XPH0j0nrbNsuyMgpjW24kF8uKyYoi6hVjBJ4odG3LismtOq-qHdCbLY/s320/DSC_0029.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5343871824474755282" border="0" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: center;">Austin & Olivia<br /><br /><br /><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-E7Q_RkTIsLYFmoeZ2PVA7Rl3hYNHFWAU2MxRZqkru5i6nDRpDpGVwyewQ_ZkHbr2I0RvlT1bTpAUVOS8Bh2r4QPPtaQB79H7DyEOU5UMf5vAj02dsyCxGH3BOCEVtTC-JtMcw4tJFO8/s1600-h/DSC_0024.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-E7Q_RkTIsLYFmoeZ2PVA7Rl3hYNHFWAU2MxRZqkru5i6nDRpDpGVwyewQ_ZkHbr2I0RvlT1bTpAUVOS8Bh2r4QPPtaQB79H7DyEOU5UMf5vAj02dsyCxGH3BOCEVtTC-JtMcw4tJFO8/s320/DSC_0024.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5343871819322823970" border="0" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: center;">Morgan exploring<br /><br /><br /><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjfhh1HK-pwO2QgLPxpJ2-gKCARBqA7X_8wE9omAKW69zczE27wAwsGwhdwa1eNnwF_FvnukeNBkW8zW-aNnuERQtK5VYAe7biCVuxHPirIm9T2uY7iAskygwX7NbMCKVmwwC-oG_ctS4o/s1600-h/DSC_0026.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjfhh1HK-pwO2QgLPxpJ2-gKCARBqA7X_8wE9omAKW69zczE27wAwsGwhdwa1eNnwF_FvnukeNBkW8zW-aNnuERQtK5VYAe7biCVuxHPirIm9T2uY7iAskygwX7NbMCKVmwwC-oG_ctS4o/s320/DSC_0026.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5343871176944880290" border="0" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: center;">Allee smiling for the camera, as usual!<br /><br /><br /><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1XkO1xqmAskiLrQwgoGee12lACOoEM_bkNt7ZwmDayQLXJb8RDmA4xdYgzkijQOAHWts98bH12tTgjYd2SHZo8XJbkr60yjrleF9aVU0z34smFWHDI2aiEyPhnFgQIwiOZ702a7nHtdE/s1600-h/DSC_0022.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1XkO1xqmAskiLrQwgoGee12lACOoEM_bkNt7ZwmDayQLXJb8RDmA4xdYgzkijQOAHWts98bH12tTgjYd2SHZo8XJbkr60yjrleF9aVU0z34smFWHDI2aiEyPhnFgQIwiOZ702a7nHtdE/s320/DSC_0022.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5343871170703968658" border="0" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: center;">Baby Jakob, he was a trooper that's for sure!

In some ways, I am so excited to have a break, but oh my, I will miss those kids. A few of them were in my class last year too, so it will be really hard not to have them coming back. They are so fun, and also very funny. <br />A couple months ago I got out the q-tips for a glueing project and Kennadee says to me "silly teacher those aren't for glue, they're for our ears" like DUH how could I make such a stupid mistake. There's also the funny comments during playtime when the kids say the wrong name for things, like calling the elevator an excavator! I just LOVE my job and all those cute faces pictured above. <br /><br />So here's the question, do I cry or shout for joy???<br /></div>Shane & Lainahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03673917201714378473noreply@blogger.com8tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5208628886506156926.post-51101363561961565212009-04-27T14:26:00.000-07:002009-04-27T14:38:05.373-07:00Wicked Prehistoric Primary???<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgW9CknEfR-YSelL2_O4nWV6SZUBaN7sKJ1s3bJlNiVtIMajPrxk2TTJ_KfsBqjjHr3aozunF39ZiW-xUdLfeevaYDSSIs0OtNgJqlJBePNyLwvAB1nps8-wkesluLP5i5x3jw9brDrx90/s1600-h/DSC_0112+copy.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 219px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgW9CknEfR-YSelL2_O4nWV6SZUBaN7sKJ1s3bJlNiVtIMajPrxk2TTJ_KfsBqjjHr3aozunF39ZiW-xUdLfeevaYDSSIs0OtNgJqlJBePNyLwvAB1nps8-wkesluLP5i5x3jw9brDrx90/s320/DSC_0112+copy.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5329488622004689858" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />No that is not what I think of Primary. That's just what we've been up to lately. First off, thanks to my awesome sister-in-law and friend, Shane and I were both able to see "Wicked" and yes it totally ROCKED! It's the best show I've ever seen...AWE SOME!!!!!! (Hopefully I can post some pics later)<br />The next thing we've had going on is a report for Austin. He chose to do it on the great Triceratops. The picture is from the poster we are putting together, I just thought it was a great shot!<br />Last but not least, we had our Primary Activity that I was in charge of, on Saturday. Everyone survived and I think it even turned out okay! It was kind of a stressful week last week, but fun as well.<br />That about catches us up, until the end of this week which brings Shane and Morgans birthdays...PARTY!!!Shane & Lainahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03673917201714378473noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5208628886506156926.post-16691899693024065462009-04-04T18:47:00.000-07:002009-04-04T19:06:49.789-07:00Party Recipe<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEguAw-eK283JddhNlMpMJ3mSf84iwAH0P-WJoBUvQ3o4ahJqzDdu6_U4L8_GRLZuBCEKnL_sVv7nGachQKMyvRMbW9y9fFdadLBl-vQy7IDLPm02CqixJdgXhW2z4cZWLjOUZV3RJSycVs/s1600-h/DSC_0003.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEguAw-eK283JddhNlMpMJ3mSf84iwAH0P-WJoBUvQ3o4ahJqzDdu6_U4L8_GRLZuBCEKnL_sVv7nGachQKMyvRMbW9y9fFdadLBl-vQy7IDLPm02CqixJdgXhW2z4cZWLjOUZV3RJSycVs/s320/DSC_0003.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5321021288652537074" border="0" /></a><br /><span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">So today was the big party.
