Families are Forever

I had the wonderful opportunity to go to the Provo Temple with my parents and some of my sisters and their husbands. This was a special occasion because my mom Sealed her dad to his adoptive family, then sealed Him and His wife together, and then my mom got sealed to her parents for 
TIME AND ALL ETERNITY.
The spirit was amazing in the Temple and I am so proud of my mom and happy for her to be able to do this and be eternally connected with her family! 
Love you mom!










 Thank you for letting us stay with you for a few days. For playing with my girls and for taking me to the Hospital while i was down there. LOVE YOU BOTH!

Surgery #2

Eden has had problems with her ears since she was born; about every two to three months she would have an ear infection. By the time she got to her twelve month doctor appointment the doctor and I decided to have her see the ENT. We were so lucky to be seen by one of my students mother who determined that yes she did need tubes put in her ears, We scheduled the surgery.
On the day of her surgery we were at the Same Day Surgery so early in the morning. Because she was so young she got to be the first patient of the day for Dr. Benion. While we waited Eden walked around in her gown and got smiles from everyone. The Surgeon met us in the hall way where we were walking and took her to surgery. The procedure was only 15 min but it was so long to me!!!! A nurse came back and said that she was down and would be back shortly, I asked how she was doing and they said she is breathing just fine. The other nurse next to me said that means she is crying. 
You could hear Eden as they brought her back, They said that babies don't like the Anesthesia so she would be upset for a while. Geeze she was unconsolable so after trying the sippy cup countless times and singing and rocking and everything I just breastfed her and she fell asleep. Her recovery was great just like Lydias and they gave her a little hospital doll to take home.

Idaho

The Shira's from Idaho came to visit us!!! We did a Lagoon day which was really fun and than we went up to Idaho with them for a few days. First thing we did there was go to Mitchel's High School reunion, and one of the days there we went camping! The trip was tons of fun even though I got hives. On the way home we pulled over and went swimming in the River, That was also really fun.

Watkins family reunion.

We had the Watkins Family Reunion and it had a carnival theme which was really neat for the kids! My favorite part was the Walk Down Memory Lane, it was filled with family photos which I posted all my favorites of Grandma Leila Hill Watkins and her family. I LOVE getting to go to Aunt Jenae's Cabin every year; it is full of memories.
