Little boys!


Poor buddy -- He was coming
down the cement (of course) stairs
after church Sunday and somehow
his foot caught and he went
head first down the stairs on his
little face! I truly thought he had
broken his nose -- he screamed all
the way home and then said,
"Mom, It hurts in my boogers!" :)
He is fine and just a little scuffed up-
only a small bit of what's to come!

Spring has sprung!





Spring has FINALLY
sprung in Flagstaff!
It was a beautiful day-
I took the kids on a
shoot with me this
morning and we couldn't
help but enjoy the
beautiful spring
blooms!

Trigger finger




Amy has had a fun past couple of weeks. For the past few months her 3rd finger on her right hand has been catching. Too busy to notice much, she just kept dealing with it until last Friday it locked in the middle of the night -permanantly! The funny thing is
that Mom came to stay and got here Thursday. We were so glad to see her and she just felt like she should be here. Little did we know that we would REALLY need her help. Amy's finger caught the next night. The tendons were pulling so tight that her had began to swell and by Sat. we decided to skip the date we had planned and go in to the Dr. They shot her finger full of steroids and no luck -- it didn't unlock. So left with a RX for pain meds and and apt. for Mon. morning. She went in and the finger was disloged and they set up surgery for Wed. morning. Mom stayed and saved our lives. The surgery went well. They opened up her hand and cut the pully that was stuck and removed the nodule that had formed. It's been quite the talk and she has lots of good nicknames now. WE like to call her "trigger" and the Young women she works with call her "GUNS". Before her hand was unstuck, Mikelle said, "Mom! You could be on a Superman movie!" All sorts of fun and now we just see how things go! Kind of hard not using your right hand but it's already feeling better -- Here's a link all about trigger finger and a couple pics of Amy's hand pre and post surgery!

A Dear John Deere




JOHN DEERE TRACTOR

Carter had a fun time even though his
sisters weren't feeling great with their
colds. He still had a blast in the
back yard helping get ready for our new
swing set. Amy scored at a garage
sale and found this little tractor-
It's quite a hit!

Oak Creek Canyon Visit

Mikelle and Ryan visited Oak Creek Canyon on Saturday (about 15 miles away). Mikelle decided to get an up-close view of the river by jumping in!
