Update

Kayla got out of surgery about 3:45 or so. It went great. 2 nails put in and no cast...and she will not have a cast either. AMAZING! She is still sleeping at this time she did wake up and gave us both a big hug. Her pain is not near as bad. Still has morphin in her. resting comforable! Doc says she can put weight on it when ever she is ready, but she will be scared to do so. It may be 3 weeks before she can get around. She can go to school in a wheelchair if she is ready.
Thank you all so much for the prayers (I heard you Face Book) LOL They were all felt. Jasper county is great. Thanks so much to the Jasper County Ambulance crew...Julie and her husband...sorry can't remember your name! You were great and made me feel so much better. Also, to Thanks Gary lindemann and Fish Head!!!LOL for being so fast! Kayla let everyone know that Kyle pushed her off the slide and put a hole in her pool this week. LOL I'm sure this is only one of many! We both feel so much better. God is GREAT! I'll keep you posted!

First Broken Bone......

Kyle pushed Kayla off the slide last night and she broke her femur bone up high. she is in surgery now at Childrens (GREAT PLACE) I will try tokeep you all posted if Kayla allows me to. thanks for all the prayers they are being felt!

"Major" problem

Yesterday afternoon, Scott was spraying the beans behind the house and I was making super(steak, and corn on the cob!) for my parents. They were coming for a visit, they don't make it over too often and but we love it when they do come. We try to always make steak and such. Anyways, Kayla comes running into the house and says "Mom, we have a major problem, Kyle poked a hole in the pool" So we ran out and checked it and there was about a 2 inch gash in it. Scott shoved a garbage bag through it hoping it would hold until we found some glue and a patch...... Not much luck. Scott went out to check it when mom and dad left and it only had a foot of water in it! It also had a hole in the top ring so, needless to say we may try to get an end of the year deal at walmart.
*** I forgot to mention that Kyle drove his battery operated Rhino into the pool!!! He said Kayla (who was in the pool) wash going to wash his Rhino!

The shed is coming along

The concrete work for our shed started last week Thursday and Friday and continued today. They should only have a day or two left depending on the rain. So I'm going to post the pictures that I have taken so far. They are ready to pour the walls tomorrow morning and they will pour the porch last. Our Shed is 40 X 30 foot with a 16 foot lean too on each side. The north side lean too is going to have 3/4 of it enclosed and the other part is going to be a porch. (really nice size porch) The first two pictures are them trenching the footers.

This is them laying the orange water lines that heat and cool the concrete (eventually anyways)

They are pouring the concrete in the enclosed portion of the shed (the kitchen and bath area).

Gramps stopped by to watch the guys work, so I got him a nice chair and a glass of tea. Hope he enjoyed it!

More pictures to come!!!!!!!!

Working too hard

I didn't get to go to the bridal shower today, Sorry Sarah! I had to help my husband at the farm. He has been working so hard. So, I have been helping in any way I can. I wish I had more muscle! He's been working on the farm solo the last few months. I guess 50/50 isn't 50/50 anymore. Looks like we are giving 100%. In the long run it will be worth it. Scott is giving his parents everything he can and not looking back! Reminds me of my dad, only back in the day, I didn't think it was fair, all work no play. It's a pride thing, I get it now. Thanks Grandpa Gary! Love you!

Final Grades

I finally recieved my final grades for my first semester in the Rad program! 3- A's and 2 - B's ! So my overall GPA is a 3.82! She only bumped up one of my B's to an A. That's better than nothing!
The concrete for the shed is moving along. They have the forms, insulation, wire, and the pipe (for the heated floor) all in and ready for the concrete to be poured on Monday. And hopefully they will back on tuesday to pour the walls.
We have a bridal shower to go to today and then we are heading to Montrose campground to visit some family and friends and listen to some good music! Hope everyone out there is having a good weekend. I can't believe the summer is about over!
Until next time.....

Exciting Day!

Today has been an exciting day already and it's only 1:20pm! Smithenry Trenching is starting our concrete work today for our shed! So we took the afternoon off to watch!

Also I got my clinical assignment via email today. I get to go to St. Anthony's with Ronda Jansen. I an super excited about that!

Pictures of the shed will follow soon!

One down....5 to go!

Well, today I finished my first semester in the Radiography program. I just checked my grades and I have a 91.23%, 91.34% and a 91.51%. Now, a bottom A is a 92 and she said she has been known to bump a person up based on attendance and such. I have only missed 1 hour of class all summer. Do you think she will bump me up? If she does GREAT!!!!! If she doesn't ...i'm okay with that too! I'll keep you all posted on my final grades and where my clinical site may be this fall!

Tumbling has come to a end!

Kayla has been attending the Tumble Zone in Olney for a while now. She has come a long way, but decided she didn't want to tumble anymore. So this last Thursday was her last night. A big THANK YOU goes out to Shana for teaching Kayla the basics! Kayla can do her cartwheel and her round-off now. Watch Shana!!!

Ready for Kindergarten

Last night, Scott, the kids and I went to Church (which was much better for us this week), out to eat and then to Walmart to help Kayla pick out her school supplies! She has been telling me the last few days that she wants a Barbie bookbag and Barbie folders. We found most of her stuff right away. Kayla and Scott took charge and I read of the list and took pictures ;) I enjoyed having Scott here for this, it was so fun for the both of them. She had a pretty long list: 2 bottles of glue and glue sticks (had to be elmer's) 8 boxes of crayons, 5 folders and more! crazy!!!! Anyway, we then went on to look for bookbags. We look at all th e $9 ones and then Scott said "Hey Angie, there are some more over here $15 ones" Thanks Honey! So we go and look for Barbie.....I was kinda getting worried......Then she found it......Her Barbie Bookbag! She was one happy girl. So was I, it was only $7! I wonder how long it will last? LOL Kayla is now ready for Kindergarten Open House on the 13th. Is Mom and Dad ready? Time sure does fly!
