Colby took 2nd at Nationals.

Colby went to Junior Nationals at Virginia Beach this week. He took 2nd. We are really proud of him. He is not happy with it, but we all think that it is awesome. We were not able to go with him so hopefully someone took pictures for us and I can post them when he gets back. WAY TO GO COLBY!!!!!!

Babysitting Grandkids

I was given the opportunity to babysit the grand kids. I was thrilled to have them come and spend time at my house. Leah came dressed up in her Bella dress and slippers. She informed me that she was dressed all in yellow and maybe the chickens would think she was their big momma in yellow. Then she proceeded to tell me that Justin is her prince because he has yellow letters on his shirt. Where does she come up with this stuff?

Then we put together puzzles that I had bought for them. They both helped and Leah was very good at putting them together. I really enjoy having them come to my house. They keep me young.

Megan had Kylee give Justin a haircut. He was not very happy with having his haircut. I think it turned out rather cute.

Sleepover at Grandma's house

Leah has been wanting to stay over and so she finally was able to stay with me on Friday night. We played paper dolls (magnet). She usually tells you what to say and how to act and even what to wear. It is very fun. Then off to bed we went, she slept in bed with me and we read the scriptures out loud. She tried to repeat everything I said.

In the morning, we got up and ate scrambled eggs (her favorite). Then she and I went to do the chores outside. We feed the chickens and watered them. She loves to feed the chickens and try to pick them up. Then we feed Maggie, our big dog and then we feed the horses. She was really proud of herself so we had to call grandpa Vincent to tell him about it. Then she wanted to take a bath and I had to bribe her to get out. I really enjoy my grandchildren and love having them over. I hope that some of the others get married one day and give me more.

The Chickens have arrived.

After a day of feeding chickens worms, we had sometime outside playing around. It is so nice to have some nice days. We enjoyed watching the grandkids on the tramp and Kylee trying to do some tricks. (She forgets that she is getting old. LOL)

Justin having issues with his hair.

Leah is braver this year and now will jump by herself on the tramp.

My husband decided to get chickens again. We had them along time ago in Nevada. The first adventure with chickens brings back many memories.(not all of them good) This time though, it is for the grandkids. Leah loves are baby chickens. She calls them are little darlings. She comes over everyday to feed and water them. It is rather cute to see her and Justin take care of the chickens. Let us hope that there will be no mean chickens this time around.

We are finally home from the hospital. Karrie and some of her friends cleaned the house. Kylee did laundry. It was nice to come home to a clean place. Colby is doing much better, but over did it the first day back and was nauseated the first night home. He goes to the doctor to day to see if he can eat solid food again.

Colby also won state this year and also received outstanding wrestler. He is working very hard and should be able to go to college on a wrestling scholarship. It is fun to watch him grow up.

I believe that he gets his talent from his mother. (LOL)

Colby in the Hospital

Colby is doing much better and is bored of being in the hospital. We should be able to leave on Wednesday. His heart rate dropped really low last night and they called the doctor in. When he looked at Colby, he realized that he is in such good shape that is why his heart rate was so low. They also told as that his fat count was very low. I offered to share some of my fat.

Colby in the Hospital

Colby woke up on Thursday at 12:45 really sick. We thought he had an appendicitis, but unfortunately it was something worse. He has an infection in his intestine. Vincent and the doctor gave him a blessing. Then he was transported by ambulance to Primary Children's Hospital. He is doing much better and wishes he could eat.
