Christophers surgery pics

Go BYU casts, he told them what color he wanted and it was NOT red.
He was so loopy from the anesthesia, he told Todd three times he was going to go to sleep, but just blinked his eyes then opened them and repeated the same thing. He wasn't in much pain until 8pm that night and then it was really painful all night. Todd stayed up all night with him and made sure he had everything he needed and when he needed it.

The before surgery pics, look at those BIG feet!:)



Waiting to go into surgery, we arrived at 9am he went in to surgery at 10am was done at 1pm and we left the hospital at 4pm. What a long day!


Standing on his own two feet for the last time for three weeks.

New News

Ok, so I have been a complete slacker on updating my blog, I am always telling others to update there blog and here I sit with everything still old news.
There has been alot going on over the past two months and there will be in the months to come.
Geoff has been working hard in school to improve his grades and has done very well. He also tried out for the freshman soccer team and made it, his postition is middle defender. They have been practicing hard and can't wait for there first game(not sure when that is). He has also been training hard for the MS 150 bike ride in June, today he rode 24 miles.
Chris has been having trouble with his feet so we took him to the Doctor and found out he has two extra bones in both feet, he will be undergoing surgery on the 23rd. He can hardly wait to get this taken care of so he can get back to playing soccer without pain. He can't put any weight on his feet for 3 weeks, so that will be challenging. He has also been training hard for the MS 150, he rode 16 miles on Wed. and 24 today.
Nathan has had two gymnastics competitions where he won 3 gold and 3 silver medals, and he has another competition on the 21st in SF. He will also be playing soccer here in the next month so he is very busy.
I am a total soccer mom, I love it!
Please forgive me if I told you to update your blog and mine was still old, but I will be back on top of things again.

Stitches


Wednesday after school Geoff was beaned in the head with a flying carabeaner ( a clip used for rapelling) in the school hallway. After getting stuff out of his locker he stood up and was hit by this object right above his left eye and ended up with 2 stitches on the inside and 7 on the outside. No one new who threw it or anything, he was just in the wrong place at the right time for it to hit him. He walked home and was way ticked when he got here. So I loaded 5 kids in the car, 3 which where daycare kids and we had an educational field trip to the Doctors office. The girls thought it was gross to watch him get stitches while the boys thought it was cool.

Sledding and Christmas


Every year we go up to Shane's house to enjoy sledding down the mountain in his back yard, and a jump is always a must. The top pic is Nathan ducking just in time before a train of people plow into him.
Todd did a face plant in the snow and his face was frozen. The day we went sledding it snowed all night and they had 24 inches in there driveway and it snowed the whole time we were sledding
The tube train going off the jump. Sydnie, Geoff, Dexter, Maggie, Christopher and Lauren. We all had a great time.
Christmas morning santa brought the older boys Ipods and Nathan a Nintendo DS
