Just life

If I don't take time to write about life, then it escapes me and I won't remember. (Darn! I hate that!) Even when I read notes I have jotted down to write about, I am not sure what certain things mean and why I put that on the list.

Brett has his brand new bike stolen from his garage. He and Bree had been working on painting a new bed for Llayton. They had been in and out of the garage as they were working. I guess someone had been watching and taken it during a time they were inside.
He had bought it just a few weeks prior and so sad when it was gone. Amazingly, his biking friend saw it advertised on Craig's List just a few days later. Brett called the police and, long story short, he was able to get it back. (Had to pay $100.00 for it but he was happy in the end.) Funny thing is, I bet he now stores that thing in his bedroom!

Cohen got an award at school just two weeks after they moved to Draper. He seems to be doing better in school there.

Both Cohen and Amara have nose injuries. At scouts, they were breaking a piƱata with a pvc pipe. Cohen got hit in the nose - he has a scab over the bridge of his nose. Amara fell down the garage wooden stairs - no hands to break her fall. She hit right across the bridge of her nose. It left a fairly dark bruise, the poor thing.

Brett said he will be doing summer sales again this summer. They will be moving out to Irvine, California just after the baby is born. Baby is due May 29 but she is being induced on the 22nd.

Trent took his last exam - the last school test he will ever have to take. After 6 years of going to school, he has now finished his masters degree in business. University of Phoenix, Harvard and Texas A&M. We are thrilled for his accomplishment.

After 1.5 years as Bishop, Chad performed his first marriage. We attend MANY weddings from kids in the ward. We are happy for the occasion but sad because that means they leave the ward.

I have been busy working on a afghan for my dear friend Candace's baby to be buried in. She had complications during the pregnancy (potter's disease). They knew the baby did not have enough amnionic fluid and would not survive after the birth. She delivered at 29 weeks and Chandler lived for 1 minute. There have been many miracles, its been so difficult for them.

Mother's Day was delightful. The kids arranged (a feat in and of itself) for all the familee's to meet in St. George on July. So happy!
