Skeet Shooting

Saturday Anthony took Austin skeet shooting with a friend from work.  He didn't take his camera so all these are from his phone.  These are the photos he came back with.

Busy Week

This week started off slow but finished so busy.  Wednesday it started with a long day of trying to locate Anthony's missing wallet.  We looked everywhere for it and were not able to find it.  So we went all over town, we replace our debit cards, the social security office, and several other places to replace all the cards that he had lost.  At night I had a fun movie night with the girls.  I usually work Wednesdays but I took it off thinking we would go somewhere for our anniversary.  We ended up not going anywhere but we still had a great day.  So back to the movie night.  I knew I would never get to see this movie with Anthony.  When some girls at work said they were going to see it I jumped on the chance to go. We saw The Vow.  

I really liked it.  It was a cute true story of a young married couple.  So it fit just perfectly with my anniversary being this week.
Thursday which was my actual ten year anniversary we just sat at home with the kids.
Friday we took the boys over to Angie's house to stay the night.  Anthony and I enjoyed the night out without any children.  Our first stop was dinner.
Both Anthony and I LOVE this place.  I especially enjoyed it because it had food that worked with my diet.  Our next stop was the movies. 
This was a cute movie.  It started off slow but was really funny.  We both really enjoyed it.  After the movie was over we went out of the movie theater then right back inside.  We then bought tickets for Safe House.
This one had tons of action.  I personally love Ryan Reynolds and Denzel Washington.  So this movie was perfect.  So in a span of 3 days I saw 3 movies and loved every minute of it!  I rarely get to go to the movies and I love to go to them.  So seeing two in one day was so much fun.  We both got to see a movie that we wanted to see.  
We really never exchange gifts but this year Anthony got creative.  He went on the internet and made this book for me.
Anthony's name is in the place of Romeo and mine replaces Juliet.  I know they both die but it was a cute idea.
Saturday we picked up the boys and went to visit my Grandmother Majean.
She is so cute.  She took the boys on a tour of her living facility and shared so many stories with us.  We had to leave after a short visit because I had an appointment and Anthony needed to work on our car.  Well not really work but change the oil in it.  I left to my hair appointment while the boy rode their bikes to Spanish Fork to play at the best park every.  They had a ton of fun!  
I came home no longer with blonde hair.  That's right I changed my hair to brown.  I have been wanting to change it for a long time and just never really got the nerve to do it.  Well today was my day because it is now brown.
I am sure one day I will go back to blonde but I think I will keep it this way for a little while.  Also while I was getting my hair done Anthony was working on changing the oil in our suburban.  He found his disappearing wallet.  Tyler had put it in a box in the garage.  I am so glad he found it but I wish he found it before we ran all over town trying to replace everything.  Oh well, I had a great week and am very happy that we celebrated our Ten year anniversary.  I can't believe it has gone by this fast. We have been together for 15 years now and it still seems like yesterday we were just dating.  I am so blessed to have such a wonderful husband and three amazing children.  I am truly the happiest person I know.

A Healing Clavicle

Yesterday we went to the doctors to get Tyler's clavicle looked at again.  He has been really good at wearing his figure 8 brace so I was hoping we would get good results.  Tyler did such a great job getting the X-Ray taken.  Last time he was in so much pain he cried when they had him lay down.  The doctor came back with his x-ray that looked like the bone was kind of pulling back together with a small gap and a huge knot around the broken area.  The doctor advised me not to worry that it was normal for it to look this way.  He advised that the next 4 months we really need to make sure he doesn't fall because his bone tensile is developing which will make his bone pull back together and stronger.  However it takes a full year for the bone to be completely back to normal.  So our little stinky is doing well but still has a long road of recover ahead of him.  At least it doesn't seem to bother him.  He plays like he always does which I say is probably not a good thing since our family is accident prone.

Ethan's Baptism

Saturday our family attended Ethan's very special day.  Ethan turned 8 years old in January which means he could get baptized and receive the gift of the Holly Ghost.  It was such a special day for Ethan and my family.

Learning the drums

Mathew bought this drum set for Christmas.  Last week we had dinner at the Fischer house.  Mathew was nice enough to let the boys try them out.

Clavicle Update

Yesterday I took Tyler to our family doctor to check his healing process.  After a week the bone should have started to knit back together.  However what we saw with a new X-ray was it was worse.  So the doctor gave him a figure 8 brace to help in his healing process.  This should have been given to us by the ER doctor.  Our family doctor was very upset that he sent a two year old home with just an arm sling.  He said that was pretty much like doing nothing.  We are scheduled to go back in a month to check the progress again.

Monte L. Bean Life Science Museum

Monday my work held a luncheon for all the trainers in dispatch.  Austin and Braiden were both going to be at school so I only had to worry about finding someone to watch Tyler.  Luckily I work with some amazing people and great friends.  KJ offered to watch our little man so I could go to the luncheon.  Tyler has only seen KJ a few times when he has come in to visit me at work.  However he is so easy going I wasn't really worried about him being scared with her.  KJ is an amazing mother and a great friend.  I am really privileged to know her.  
She met us at Brick Oven and took Tyler to an awesome museum that I had never heard of before.  She also took these pictures for me to see how much fun he was having.









After they finished up at the museum she even got him a treat.  One of his favorites, ice-cream.  I am so grateful to my friend for helping me out that day.  Tyler really enjoyed himself.  When I showed him the pictures on my phone he had so much to say so I know he really enjoyed his time with her.  
Thanks again KJ you are the best!  After seeing the pictures I am going to have to take Austin and Braiden.
