26 letters in 26 days

In kindergarten they have to take something with each letter on a different day. Jared and I talk about what he is going to take and what others bring. I am trying to think of things that others wouldn't bring we have done pretty well with being different (except the dog). Jared is always saying I know what to bring on _____ letter then he list off what he should take. Or he is saying oh man I should have taken this instead. In the car he list everyday what he brought for each letter.

Grandpa and Grandma pumpkin patch!!!

 The boys loved picking pumpkins from Grandpa and Grandma's pumpkin patch. My parents had so many to choice from. The boys picked a couple each. Then we ended up taking even more.

 Conner was so proud of his pumpkin!!!

 Brylee held on to her pumpkin for only a couple of seconds.

 The pumpkin they were putting on the four wheeler weighed 55 pounds. Jared wanted the biggest pumpkin.

Of course Conner had to ride the four wheeler. He loves them.

11 years!!!

Bryce and I have been married 11 years. Time flies. We went to the Yardley Bed and Breakfast for a night. When we got down to Manti we checked in then went to dinner. After dinner we went on a carriage ride. It was fun to hear the history of Manti. The temple was all lit up. My camera was about to die so I didn't get any pictures of the temple which was sad. We went on a four wheel ride the next day. The ride was nasty I am glad I didn't have my own machine. It was around a 30 mile ride. Then we ate at a hamburger place that has been opened for 60 years. The carriage ride lady told us to try it. Bryce said it was the best hamburger he has had.  

What a week

This week was not the best week. Sunday I took Conner to the instacare he had croup. He gave him a steroid and a breathing treatment. He screamed the whole time. It was sad to see him like this. I wasn't feeling very well so I took Monday off. I drove Jared to school came home then turned around and went back to get Jared. Jared was climbing on the counter I pulled his shirt and he ended up hitting the bridge of his nose on the handle of the cupboard. He went to the floor crying grabbing his head. I moved his hand and saw tons of blood. I freaked out and called Bryce no answer (he was at a bomb conference). I called my mom asked her if she could meet me at the ER to get stitches. By the time I hung up with Bryce he texted me saying he couldn't talk so I texted him to meet me at the ER. He ended up calling me. I started crying when he called he couldn't understand me he told me to settle down. I told him what had happened and he rushed home. While we were waiting I was still crying and then Conner started crying and threw himself on the ground hitting Jared's head. Jared kept telling me to stop crying. I couldn't because I felt bad plus I was tired from taking care of Conner who was sick. Bryce got home he didn't think he needed stitches so we put ice on. I called my mom told her Bryce had come home and that she could go back to work. She ended up coming up to check everything out. When she got here Bryce was leaving and I started crying again when I saw her. Not sure why.

Tuesday I stayed home again from work because Conner still had a fever. He couldn't go back until his fever was gone for 24 hours. We took Jared to school then ran to DoTerra to get some oils to see if that would help. I had to pick Aubree up at her school because she had a flat tire and she was going to watch Conner while I cooked for my work party. I did dutch oven chicken, 3 desserts and potatoes. My dad was suppose to help me the whole time but he ended up going to the doctor. I was very stressed out. He finally got there and took over the coals which was nice. We really had a great turn out, we ran out of chicken which was horrible but oh well. The desserts were really good. Conner had a bad night his fever finally broke at 2 am.

Wednesday I had SEP's so Bryce took the day off which was nice of him since he had a bomb conference the whole week. I took Jared to school then dropped him off. I ran to Sams because I volunteered to make a salad for the PTA dinner. I didn't get home til 9 that night.

My mom ended up taking Thursday off to watch Conner. I didn't think about asking her if she wanted to pick Jared up until we were on our field trip. I called Julie and told her my mom was going to pick him up so send him out. I got a text from my mom to tell Julie to send him out so I called her and she said that Jared never came into her room. I called the office to see if he was up there and they said no. I started crying because I was thinking the worse. They ended up finding him in the lunch room. He was looking for me. He went in my room tipped all my chairs, he went to the book fair then went to the lunch room. When they found him he wasn't worried at all. Bryce had a work party that night and my dad was going to watch the boys  then he made plans so Aubree was going to but I decided to just go home and put the boys to bed. Bryce went and won a coat. He was hoping for a gun safe but was happy with the coat.

I took Conner to Lori's I was so worried he wouldn't go but he ran in and took his shoes off. I was shocked. He had fun. Jared and one of my students were playing tag Jared ran out of the playground and fell hard on gravel. His knees were pretty scraped up. He started crying and didn't want to go to school. His teacher gave him band aids and I put them on then left.  Bryce and I cleaned the whole house so the realtor could take pictures of the house. We are lowing our price. I hope we can sell this house.

Saturday Bryce and Jared went to work on the robot. We drove up the canyon to gather leaves for Jared's homework. It was really pretty. We made a dutch oven dinner. Tomorrow we will be making another one and having my parents and grandpa over to eat.

 

swimming and playing

 The boys had fun playing in the swimming pool.

 I love his smile!!!

 Conner picked a pumpkin before it was ripe!!

 Look at my big boy. He loves doing anything Jared does.

 My boys love the cat. They can be mean sometimes to it.

My poor baby

My poor baby had croup. He had a fever for 5 days. All he wanted to do was snuggle which isn't like him. He is usually all over the place. I really hate having sick kids. It was a long week.

playing and cleaning

 Conner loves to help even when you don't need help!!!

Jared and Conner love to play in the play pen they put blankets over the top to make a fort.

 Jared loves to build things then knock them down.
