Silly girl

This photo makes me laugh every time.  It was taken back in January. She had all her gear on and told me to take a picture and this is how she poses!! 

Selfies




Happiness day? Or something like that...

At work they handed out mustaches and treats for national smile day or something like that. It definately made us laugh.  I texted this picture to Rowdy and told him I turned into a man because I had a mustache and nuts.  He just said I was weird.  Lol 

Sweet siblings

Rowdy picked Porter up from school and Shandlee had her arms hiding. She showed them to Porter. He thought it was fake because he didn't realize how bad she had fallen I guess. Rowdy told him it was true that she broke both arms. Rowdy said that Porters lip started to quiver and his eyes started to water. Then Shandlee started to cry. He put his arm around her DNS kept saying he was sorry.  So Rowdy captured the moment.  See, they really do love each other! 

May 14,2014

I was at work and Rowdy took the kids to school. Everyday the kids jump out of the van and race to the school. This day Shandlee ran too fast and tripped and fell try king to catch herself with her hands in front if her. 

Rowdy saw the whole thing from the van so he got out to go help.  Shan was crying and saying she thinks she broke her arm. Rowdy kept telling her she was ok and to stop crying. He took her to the office to wash her up and the school nurse happened to be there. She helped wash off her bloody lip and nose. Her right arm started to swell and looked a little funny but they weren't sure if was broken. Talking with Shan and the nurse they decided Rowdy could leave and they would see how Shandlee did.  Shan said she went to class and actually fell asleep.  The teacher asked if feh needed to go back to the office so she did.  Her arms weren't getting better so they called Rowdy.  He went and picked her up and had to wake her up again.he took her to the Instacare and I met them there.
When I walked in Shan started crying again.  She had been so brave.  I could tell she hurt because she couldn't even go to the bathroom on her own.  At the time we were only concerned about the right arm.  I got looking at the other one snc if looked swollen to me also and she said it hurt but not as bad as the right.  I asked if we could get that one x-rayed also.  Sure enough two broken arms.  The left one just "buckled" where the right one broke twice.  They wrapped it up and said to follow up with our doctor.  She looked so sad with two wrapped arms.  
I was sure hoping for waterproof casts because it was the beginning of summer and you can't NOT get wet!!!
She got lots if sympathy that day from grandma's   and grandpas and everyone!






Homework

Everyday after school the kids did their homework.  I think Shandlee as a first grader had more to do than Porter. Everyday Shandlee had to read an English book, a Spanish book, math worksheet, practice spelling, practice a timed reading paragraph and once a week she wrote a paragraph.  Seemed like a lot to me but she was pretty good at getting it done everyday. 

Shandlee selling

My kids are going to be good business men.  They are always wanting to sell and make money.  This time I allowed it and they just sold old toys and stuff. They made $7 thanks to kind neighbors.  

Porter is 10!

Seriously where does the time go?  It seems just like yesterday he was my little guy and now he is nearly as tall as me!  Porter chose to go to Golden Corrsl for his birthday dinner.  He had a party at Laser Mania.  He had Brecken Woodard, Seth and Ryan Seegmiller, Mathew Barraclough, and Shandlee of course.  They did laser tag, 4d movie and the arcade.  





Poor whiskers ... Ha ha

Mr. Whiskers had been missing for a few days so when he came back we had to take a picture. I think it's funny because the cat just looks miserable.  

Shandlee's fort

Shan made this and fell asleep under it one Friday night. I think she was there all night. 

Fiesta fun time

Us with the Seeg's



Fathers and sons

This was the first year that Rowdy was not working at the jail on fathers and sons weekend.  Porter was SO excited to go. It was at Kolob. They said they had a good time but Porter froze all night.

Shandlee, grandma Carolyn and I had a girls night. We went to Red Rkbin for dinner then went and did some shopping.  It was fun but I don't have a photo to share of that. 😞
