Calie turned two, Devin and Shira came out, Kids at the farm and Dane got hurt. How's that for a title




       Hey friends, it's been awhile since my last post, so I have a lot of catching up to do.  On April 4Th Calie turned two!!!  We had Justin's family over to celebrate.  We still have yet to have a party-party for any of the kids, but we're working on one for the boys in September.  

YEAH!!!  Shira and Devin came home from BYU Hawaii to visit last weekend.  We miss them sooo much.  They have eight more months to go before Devin graduates.  It was so nice to visit with them, I was sad to drop them off at the airport.  Justin and I hope to get out there in August.  We love you Devin and Shira !!!!!!!  




Dane's school had a field-trip to a farm, so the kids and I went country for the day.  Calie was so brave, she rode the big horse without so much as a wimpier.  Dustin also got to ride the big horse, but Dane was a little bummed out that he had to ride the small horse.  The kids also got to play with hundreds of bunnies and guinea pigs.  Needless to say they all bathed in anti-bacterial hand soap that night.        



Sad day!!!  Dane was messing around in the living-room last Thursday and bumped his head.  He hit it so hard his skin popped open and you could see the bone.  Pretty gnarly.  We rushed the family to the emergency room.  Lucky for us, my Mom was able to meet us there and take Dustin and Calie to her house.  The e.r. was packed to the gills so it took almost 4 hours until Dane saw the Doctor.  She said since it was a striate cut that instead of stitches she could use surgical glue and glue the cute closed.  The glue will help it scare less than stitches would.  Dane was so brave, he only cried when he first bumped his head.  Poor little guy.

Calie is darling and happy birthday too!!!! How sweet that Devin and Shira came home to see the family and the day at the farm looks so much fun. My girls would love to go horse riding and it looks like tons of fun. I am so sad for little Dane. I am glad to hear that he was so brave and hope that his recovery goes well. It's so hard for mom's when their children get hurt:(

Sometimes I really wish we lived closer! Can you please tell your kids to not grow as much until we see them next. Poor little precious Dane! We will pray for his boo boo. We miss the Dicktoes mucho. I hope you guys get to come in August.
