Kyle Got Married!

Kyle married Collette on Friday February 27, 2009. It was a very beautiful wedding.

I had a great trip to Utah. I got to see my sister Tia and her whole family, including new baby Crew. I went shopping at the BYU book store and Deseret Book. Had lunch at Cafe Rio. Saw my Grandma Johnston and some aunts and uncles and a cousin, my sister Kolayna, and brother Shane with his wife Megan and daughter Addison. I was going to try to go skiing, but that did not work out. So, I tried to go tubing, but that did not work out either. But I had a great time visiting with family.

I have to give a big thanks to my husband who managed to work close to 30 hours, watch a sick kid with a 102 fever, attend a 8am end of season basketball game for Lenny, get a quote for a car repair due to an accident last weekend (not his fault), prepare our house for a showing and attend church all during the short 3 1/2 days that I was gone. Leonard did not attend the wedding because he was too busy with work. I had babysitters set up but once Lenny got sick nobody wanted to watch my kids. When I returned I asked if he had changed his mind and thought it would have been worth the extra $600 to take the kids with me. Even with all the stress he said no, but that it would have been worth $600 to have some else do his 30 hours of work for him.




Patrick Turned 5!

For Patrick's birthday we had a small bowling party. The alley was almost empty, so it was a nice quiet party. All the kids had either bowled just once before or not at all and were young so we opted for bumper bowling. But despite having bumpers one of them still managed to get a gutter!
