Snow.......Happenings 2013

Well it's snowed a lot in Payson this year!! The other morning we woke up to 20" I couldn't even drive to work-my car would have just got stuck! The roads weren't plowed at 5:30 am so Jake drove me in his BIG 4-Wheel drive and I made it-thank goodness it's like 2 blocks away!! LOL I think this is the most snow we have ever gotten-since we have lived here! Jake had to work in Provo so he took the truck thinking they would have snow........................Nope they got like 2 inches!! We got snow all day that day totaling about 2 feet! It is Crazy cold and we still have all that snow- it seems-feels like we live in Alaska!! I always think its funny that we get so much here in Payson when everyone else gets well...............Nothing! January has been busy-all three boys are playing Basketball. Jake is coaching Matthew's team. Mckay just got over from being really sick-poor guy! He had Strep-throat and when we were at the Dr. office they wanted him to have the pneumonia 13 shot-because last spring he had pneumonia which he got from his asthma issues. I agreed to give him the shot-what a mistake!! He had and some kind of reaction to the shot 2 minutes after they gave it to him in the Dr. Office. He was having a hard time breathing-it was scary. We waited 30 minutes and he was much better. The next day his whole shoulder swelled up huge-and red. He missed School for a whole week! Poor kid! Glad that's behind us! Looking forward to Warmer weather and Healthy kids- Hopefully that happens before July!!!! LOL

Matthew

During the Holidays we had a chance to go to an Orchestra Concert for Matthew.  The Junior High teacher teaches both at the High School and Junior High (there like a block away from each other).  Me and Jake decided we were getting old we REALLY enjoyed it!! The teacher has what he calls "Photo Moments" He lets you up on the stage to take pictures while they are playing a song-it was so funny to see some of the kids react to that!! It was great to hear the High School and Junior High they even played together- all 100+ students on the stage.  I am so thankful Matthew is apart of this-Love Salem Hills Junior High and High School Orchestra!

Christmas & New Year 2012-13

I've been a slacker when it comes to blogging lately-I will do better! So here is an update about Christmas and New Years. We had a great Christmas spend time with those that matter most. The kids all got spoiled-of course! Some of our favorites this Christmas were- Kindle Fires (3 of us got one), Tablet, I-Pods Lego's, Animal figurines, Barbie's, Girl Lego's, Good food we ate and did I mention LEGO'S?? My kids LOVE Lego's!!  All in all it was great! We spent time with both of our families and on New Years we spent time with our good friends! For New Years we went to our friends the Desantiago's had a GREAT time stayed up late and played Dance Central with the kids! Matthew and Mckay are pretty good little dancers! Love the Holidays!!
