Helping Kassie out

After Kassie had surgery on her foot my mom and I went down and helped her out. It was really fun to have my mom there to have fun and help me out since I couldn't do a ton because of school. It was also really nice to have my mom there because I got really sick and slept for like 2 days straight.

Aaron had to work all night the night before one of Kassie's appointments so I got to take her. After the Doctor left the room we hurried and took a few pictures of her foot before she got her cast on. Its pretty sick.





Kassie in her wheel chair. She got to where she could get around her house really good. She was also able to spin some pretty good doughnuts.





Since Kassie couldn't really do much we did a lot of puzzles. We actually did five puzzles but I don't have a picture of the fifth one. It was really fun doing these puzzles. Kassie would stay up really late and just have fun laughing and talking while doing puzzles.










During the Saturday session of conference it rained a lot. Sam had been asking to go jump in the puddles all day. So that night while Aaron was at the priesthood session Sam, Garret and I went puddle jumping.



Sam and Garret would go up and down the gutters saying march march march, and would march like soldiers. It was so much fun and we went inside soaked.

This is all of us after a fun time puddle jumping.


Sam and Garret really like to make cookies. One day Kassie asked me to make some cookies for something she had to go to. So Sam and Garret had fun helping me. If you ask my mom she will tell you that Kassie is addicted to sugar (even though we didn't even have very much sugar while we were there.

One day we were at a fabric store and saw these masks. I had my camera in my purse, so I had Kassie take pictures of me with all of them on.

John McCain
Barack Obama (our new President of the USA)


These are just a few fun pictures of Garret that I got while I was there. He is such a funny boy and has such a funny since of humor.



Garret with a really big smile



I think this is one of my favorite pictures of Garret. He really likes to play cowboys and super hero's. I took this picture one day while he was in a cowboy mood.


One night I went into the boys room at around 10:00 and found Garret wide awake and sitting at the end of his bed. I thought It was pretty funny.



When I lived in Aztec New Mexico as a kid we lived on MORRIS DR. I thought it was the coolest thing having our road named after us. Ever since we moved away I've been wanting a picture of it so when I was there this time we got a picture of it.




I thought I would get a picture of me by the sign.


On our way out of town we stopped at my favorite place to get ice cream, the "vanilla moose". This place brings back such good memories from my childhood. I remember going to this place to get ice cream cones for FHE. They are so good and huge.
