Recent Happenings...

Well, considering it's been over a month since I last updated, this is going to be a recap of what has been going on lately. A lot has happened since I last posted so this is going to be fun!
*
On Labor Day, I organized a fun get together at a place called the Bounz House with a bunch of ladies in my ward. We rounded up the kids and took them there. It was really fun!

*
Kylee's new friend....Skyler! She loved her!

*
Okay.....so this slide pictured above was HUGE! Kylee decided she wanted me to go down it with her, so I of course said yes because I never pass up an opportunity to have fun! Well, you are supposed to wear socks while playing on the slides and stuff because it helps you slide easier. I didn't have socks and I didn't think twice. So I kicked off my sandals and went down the giant slide with Kylee. Well, when we got to the bottom of the slide, my foot decided to get stuck in the crevice and my body decided to keep on going. My foot in turn, twisted and pulled in slow motion. And this was the result of that "fun"...


YEP!!!! I got the boot! I pulled 2 tendons and pinched a nerve by my achilles. It's been a month since this happened and I'm just now getting back into working out again. It still hurts but I'm desperate and can't NOT workout anymore! I HAVE TO! It feels pretty good though and I'm doing some physical therapy on it so it's getting stronger everyday.

The most important event that happened last month was my sister's wedding! Yes.....Natalie got married! Woo hoo! I hurt my ankle 5 days before Natalie's wedding too........WONDERFUL! I was supposed to be on my crutches for a week but I had to cut that short of 2 days because I wasn't about to be on crutches all day at her wedding. But I blinged out my boot and made it work!!!!

Silly boys....haha

Awwwwww.....

HOT!!!! Haha!

The happy couple!

They are gorgeous and so amazing together. A true example of what love and sacrifice is all about. Love them!!!

My high school teams are doing awesome. I'm the head coach for the JV team and the assistant for varsity. Both teams are currently 13-1 and going strong! We took team photos recently of both teams. Here are some varsity pics....

I love these girls!!!!!! So much! They make me so proud!

Then there's my pride and joy.......my sunshine!!! Kylee is doing so well in school. We had our first parent teacher conference yesterday and her teacher said wonderful things about her. She is in the top percentage of her class and is ready to start reading! After fall break, her teacher is going to start her in the reading program. Apparently this is something that they usually don't start kids in until the end of the year and when they get closer to 1st grade, but Kylee is apparently ready and they want to get her started. I'm so excited for her to start reading! She is such a smart girl and is loving every minute of Kindergarten. Here is her first ever "official" school picture....

I was pleased that she didn't smile too "cheesy" in this picture. Kylee just started her second year of dance and loves her new teacher Miss Melanie. She is excelling in all that she does and makes us smile everyday. Life has been so busy lately but it is SO GOOD! We are still in the process of trying to adopt and we are actually in communication with a birth mother in Colorado right now. Things are going great and we can't wait to add to our family soon!
