OUCH!!


Josh and James went to scouts the other night. Josh is the 11 yr. old scout master and they were passing things off and the boys got a bit wild and James ended up hitting his head, Josh pretty much told him "your fine, now sit down and pay attention" After a few minutes James told him his head still hurts and felt it and then he saw the blood. Josh saw the blood and told the boys its time to wrap it up and go home. They were home early and as soon as James saw me he started to cry and said he hit his head. Josh told me to have a look and see what I thought. I looked at it and was shocked, it was split wide open....gross! I told him he had better call Travis, he needed this stitched up. Thank heavens for Travis!! We brought him over to his house and he got James all stapled up. Poor kid, he is not the bravest, it was quite a dramatic scene. I guess I can't complain, he is this old and without any broken bones, no major catastrophes and this the first time to be sewed up, not too bad for a boy.

Bed Head



Sariah has some serious Bed Head! I don't know what is up with her hair, but every morning it is WILD!! My brother Bobby had a patch of blond hair on the back of his head that was always matted up as a kid, Sariah reminds me of that but her whole head is that way. Some mornings I am tempted to shave it off and start over! We go through bottles and bottles of detangler!

Christmas Tree Hunt




We went up to Big Lake last Saturday to get a tree. It was so much fun! We went with my brother Jesse, Sheen and Bella, and with the Bloomfields. It was snowing really hard and it was so beautiful. It was the first snow of the winter. The kids had fun playing in the snow, all but Sariah! She hated it! She couldn't wait to get in it, then she couldn't get out of it fast enough! It was a good time and we all got a pretty tree. ( ok....so they look a little Charlie Brownish, but it's all about the experience right?) I love Christmas time, we have the whole house decorated and the outside with all the lights up. We went all out this year. I love it! We really needed some holiday cheer this year. Happy Holidays!!
