NCAA Tournament

Last Thursday and Saturday we went to the NCAA games in Salt Lake. Our seats were upgraded, thanks to Kristi. Our favorite team, BYU, did not make it to the finals so we
all agreed to cheer for Butler. We saw wonderful games and our team even won. So GO Butler! We'll be cheering for you!

Driving to Mississippi

Driving to Mississippi is like having a baby. I remember after having my first baby I thought, "Wow, I'm never going to do that again" but I soon forgot. However, I am never going to drive to Mississippi again. Don't you think flying would be a better option? Twenty-five hours in the van is a killer. But we made it safe and sound and seeing Eric, Kiley and Kinsley made it all worth it.

A boy and his toys!

Last week I got to fly with Chad to Phoenix for a machinery auction. This auction was HUGE! I have never seen so much equipment in my entire life. We felt pretty confident going to the big city because we got a new garmin for Christmas.....so rent a car and the garmin will tell you how to get to where you need to be. Well our charger to the garmin did not fit and the garmin only worked to get us to the sale and then it died......we were doomed.....I thought we will never make it back home again we are lost forever. We drove around for about an hour... we found a Best Buy....we bought a new charger for our garmin....then I was happy for the rest of the trip.

Kristi's surgery

Today Kristi had surgery to remove a baclafen pump she has had for the past seven years. It had run it's coarse and we either had to install a new one or take it out. The pump didn't make life any easier for Kristi and she really didn't like them poking her to refill it every three months so now she is no longer a bionic (I couldn't find this word in the dictionary so I don't know if it is a word or not) woman and she can go through airport security without being checked and double checked.

I'm really bad at this blog thing. It is catch up time. For Thanksgiving we took our family to St. George and Las Vegas. We had a great time together and I wouldn't have traded that time for anything else.
At Christmas we had all the kids home and we spent some wonderful time together again.

At New Years we celebrated together at the Jones family ball bash and we also celebrated Chad's 53rd birthday. My how time flies. I love the holidays, especially the time we have to spend together.



This past week we got to tend our granddaughter Gracie while her parents went on a cruise. She was a delight, she made us laugh everyday. Now that she has gone back home Kristi thinks our home is boring.
