More Rough News

On Friday night, my BFF Hilairy's husband Tyler (the wedding I just did the planning for) got in a major wreck around Freedom, WY. He and his friend were out hunting, when the friend missed a turn and the vehicle they were in rolled. Tyler was ejected out of the truck. He was Life Flighted to the University of Utah in critical condition. He had to have his left kidney, his spleen and half of his pancrease removed, his neck is fractured and he will have to have facial surgery to repair the damage. As of last night, his right kidney is not working properly and they are doing their best to try and make it strong. He has been fully sedated to check for more internal bleeding/injuries and to make sure there is no spinal cord damage. This is not the way to spend your 'newlywed stage' of marriage. She is a full time student at ISU and is worried she will have to withdrawl from this semester to stay at her husbands side.

Please keep Hilairy and Tyler in your prayers.

Best of luck to you both. We love you lots!

For Skyelar

Last week my friend, Britney Edmonds, had her 7 month old daughter, Skye, diagnosed with cancer. She has already had one operation, with many more to come. She will also start chemotherapy next week at Primary Children's Hospital in SLC.

To help with the cost and travel, Britney's friends and family have put

together a fund-raiser; a dinner, silent auction, and raffle.

It will be held on Friday, November 6th at the Inkom Elementary School.It begins with food being served at 6:30-8:30 and the raffle and auction will run until 8:30 that evening as well, prizes will be awarded that night at 9pm.

There will be games for the children, The Dance Factory will be performing,

and there will be a few singing/musical numbers too.

We are accepting any kind of donation the public is willing to give to help out this sweet little girl and her family. If you would be interested in helping in any way, please let me know. My number is 547-7270.

Keep Skyelar in your prayers.

Happy Birthday Mommy!

Yesterday was my Mommy's birthday.

I am blessed beyond measure to have a mom like her

she is the most amzing women I know

She always keeps the most positive attitude in the

crappiest of situations

She is a free spirit and an inspiration

We have always had a great relationship, always

Even when I was a stupid teenager, her love for me never

decreased (even though it probably should have)

She would drop anything in a blink to be there for me,

she never missed a dance recital, dance pictures, soccer game, choir events,

piano recital, high school dance... Nothing.

Mom, God is watching you and he knows what an amazing, strong

women you are. You will be blessed for eternity.

The only thing better than calling you my mother is waiting

for my kids to call you 'Grandma'

Happiest of Birthdays to you Mom!

I LOVE YOU!

It's about time!

Right after my BFF's wedding, my camera took a total dive on me and I had to send it in for warranty work. That was in Aug. so after 10 days I still hadn't recieved my camera back and called the company to see what the issue was. And the lady I spoke to said it was fixed and sitting in shipping still... She had no idea why it had not been sent out.

I waited a week, still no camera and I called again, and again, and again....... Finally, over a month later, I got ahold of someone who had an answer for me, just to find out they had LOST my camera somewhere in their own shipping deptartment. I was irrate! This is a professional camera repair company! REALLY??!!

So, because I was so mad and it took them forever to stop beating around the bush, they upgraded me "for my troubles". HA, I need a lot more than an upgrade thank you!

That being said I'm pleased to announce I can finally post some pictures!

I just need to take some first, and figure out how to use this new gadget.....

Upcoming Events:

• Mom's Birthday
• Logan Canyon
• Tanner's 7th Birthday (tear)
• HaLLoWeeN
• The Holidays (cheer!)

I love Conference weekend. It's such a blessing

to be able to listen to the Prophet's twice a year as they

lead and guide us till the next time we meet. As I sit

and listen, it never fails that I have the feeling they are

talking directly to ME. I know with all my heart those men are

true voices of Christ. They were put on this Earth to

direct us till we meet our Father again. I'm so thankful I

was brought up in the LDS church-if not for my faith, I don't

know where this world would have taken me. And I am lucky

enough to have found a man who is also firm in faith.

We struggle, we all do, but we know where we want to be when

our time on Earth is through, and it's together. For eternity.

Everyone enjoy Conference weekend and the

blessings those talk give.
