What A Week!!!!

Well to add to the events that have already taken place this week Alex broke his Clavicle and dislocated his shoulder. His shoulder can not be put back in place until they repair the Clavicle. So right after my Grandma's funeral on Tuesday we get to go to the surgeon and find out what they are going to do and when it will take place. So adding to my stress I leave for Baltimore on a business trip in one week and now my son needs to have surgery. Can I call a "Time Out" please???

At the ER right after they said that it was most likely broke.(before the actual x-ray)

Another Beautiful Angel to watch over us

I received this message from my aunt yesterday-

Jessica,

Grandma is passing away. She has only a few days left. I wanted you to know so that you could come over to say your goodbyes if you can. Will you tell your Dad and the rest of your family? I love you guys.Miss you. Call me at Sharlene's.
Love, Jolynn

My dad called the family as soon as I got the message and we made arrangements for us to visit today after work. We did not know how much time she had but thought we could make it in time.

Before bed I prayed that god would take her with kindness and that her loved one's would be there to greet her. I asked that we would have our chance to say our goodbyes and that she would know how much we love her. I know god works in mysterious ways and it's not for me to question.
 
I received a text message at 2 am letting me know that our visit would be to late. Early this morning My wonderful, loving grandmother passed away. She is now with her soul mate, 3 daughters (Kathy,Jill & my Mom) as well as many others that passed before her. Her brilliant smile,soft hugs,the smell of fresh Cinnamon rolls, the taste of hot oatmeal with wheat toast and her huge heart will be greatly missed.
 
I know that as a family reunited in heaven they are safe and they suffer no more.

Date Night!

Last night Jer and I went to dinner at Applebee's Yummmm.... Not good for the diet but sure tasted great! Then we watched the Professional Bull riders Tour in West Jordan. Paid $50.00 for pretty good seats two rows up straight from the gates. We even had chairs with backs :) I was so excited they had 4 guys from the Elite Pro riders that fell through to re qualify for the National Championships.


Our view from our seats. It was still early and no one was sitting on front of us yet.


4 top pro riders. Second from left is a young guy from West Jordan, far right is Brendon Clark.


Our view after the seats in front of us filled up =)

So much for great seats with a great view*sigh* . We could barely even see the riders unless they happened to go around the two fat heads in front of us.  Jer even asked them nicely if they could sit back and the "KID" to the left was about 6+' tall and was a complete jerk and ignored his nice request. His dad to the right sat as low as he could to try and help us out. Young punk with no manners mad cowboys look bad!! After Jer asked them it seemed as if he did it on purpose. Brendon Clark was the "big" named rider there and he won the championship. I tried so hard to take pictures of him riding and when he came out to the arena when he won the kid in front of us stood up and I didn't even get to see him. Pretty disappointed................


                   
Just a few of the better Pictures we took. Notice the cowboy hats in some, I did the best I could to take the pictures above their heads.

Catching up!

Wow it has been a long time since I have been on here. It took like 1,000 attempts to remember my log in     =(  I almost gave up and started over.  Well a lot has changed since last November. I started a new job in January which I love. I now work for Ultradent Products. I am a outbound sales rep. It is so challenging but fun!          

My dad moved in with us in April which is also challenging but nice to have him close by. It has been 11 months since mom past away. It gets easier every day but I still miss her terribly. Dad is kind of a constant reminder of her. The two of them together is all I have know for 33 yrs. It's weird to have him here without her. He bought a horse that he named Harley and he spends a ton of time at the property working to keep the grass short and visiting his horse. It has been a great project for him and we spend time together with our horses. It's nice to have something in common.


My boys are growing up so fast. Braydon just finished 10th grade, has a job and a cute girlfriend. Alex finished 7th grade and is full of energy! They both enjoy going to the skate park and would live there if they could.

Well there you have my update for the past few months it in a nut shell...........
