Crazy Friday!!!

Friday was a crazy but scary day. When I got home from work on Friday, Josh said that his right side of his face wasn't working. I thought that was kinda strange and that he was kidding. So when I was looking at him it was true. So Brian took him to the Emergency Room. They diagnosed him with having Bell's Palsey (I think thats how you spell it). So only one side of his mouth works, he can't close his eye. He has lost all taste on one side. He can only lift one eyebrow, and on and on. Everything on that side does nothing. It almost looks as if he has had a stroke, but the Dr. assured us that that was not the case, and in time this will go away. The Dr. said that there might be some after affects like that side of his mouth and eye might droop. It is kinda sad to see him with a half smile. We hope that he recovers very soon. Here is a couple of pictures.

Karissa is going to College

We had an exciting week this past week, Karissa was accepted to Snow College. We are so proud of her!! Mom is going to be kinda sad because she has been my shopping buddy, my lunch buddy, and movie buddy. Anytime I say I am going somewhere she is ready to go with me. I am going to miss that. She decided to attend a smaller college for her first two years, then her plan is to head to medical school at the UofU (unless other plans happen). Karissa is also going to apply for a music scholarship. We pray that she will get one. She has amazing talent when it comes to singing. We are so proud of Karissa and love her very much. She is such a beautiful girl and we are so blessed that she is a part of our family.

First Real Snow In Saratoga

This is the amazing view from our house, before the big winter storm.

This is the first snowfall of the season it was a doozy it snowed ALL day saturday and didn't stop until early evening. Yep that's my house.

More snow everywhere you look, let it snow let it snow let it snow!

Tyler was so excited he has waited all year for more snow his favorite thing to do is to take my large cookie sheets and go sledding, he says he goes alot faster with the cookie sheets than his regular sled. maybe santa will have to bring him some new cookie sheets for christmas, or maybe mom should get the cookie sheets.
