This little gem is from 12 years ago in our old house, in Salt Lake.
The twins were almost one, Whitney was 4, and Brittany was 6. You can tell who in our family is the ham....
Turn down your sound, because we were listening to loud music and having the kids dance.
I think this was the last time we used a cassette tape too. :)



ignore the thing in the middle it's from free editing software

txt me

I saw this commercial late one night



and working at the high school I see hundreds of teens txting everyday.
Creepy huh?

cell phone camera update

Desiree had a mini violin recital during parent teacher conferences on Wednesday night.

Chipped my tooth at work on Thursday, while eating a chip.
Funny, not.
I have cried and panicked over it all weekend.
We have not received our dental coverage card yet so, I will have to wait for a week or so with a redneck looking tooth.
It is funny, but please don't say anything to me.... I hate dentist's

Hailey's cast was loose, so Bob took her back to the DR.
He pulled it off and moved her back to a splint.

Today is my birthday.



One plus of having so many kids, I have a collection of number candles.



Bob took me & the whole family out to eat to celebrate. It was a fun dinner filled with laughter.
Thanks!

& I want to wish Happy Birthday to Shellie too!
miss you!

broken bones

But on the topic of broken bones....

~~

Hailey has one.



I got the dreaded phone call while I was at work, from the elementary school secretary. During the loud lunch rush at the high school were I work, she said, "Hailey fell at recess and hurt her rib's." HUH? I could not hear her but that she was ok and just wanted me to know. I told her I'd call her back after lunch when I could hear her .

After lunch, I called her back and found out it was her wrist. She said it was swollen and they had put ice on it. After work I went to get her and heard the whole story. A nameless girl pushed her to hard across the new zip line.


Hailey flew, flipped off, and landed on her left arm. The nameless girl lied and said she did not push Hailey.

I looked her arm over, squished it,and she did not even flinch. It was a little swollen but she hardly even cried. She just put her chair on her desk and I took her home. She could move her wrist so I thought she just sprained it. Within an hour she was in pain.

Long story short, she has a buckle fracture on her left arm. It is in a splint tell Tuesday when she will get a cast for 4 weeks.



Hailey and the nameless girl that pushed her butt heads a lot and are know for not getting along. The nameless girl is a bully.

The nameless girl will be getting in trouble Monday morning.
