It has been a long time since I have posted and I apologize. I had my second surgery and got all that metal taken out and can semi function as a human being. I still can put no weight on the leg but I am doing o.k. I really appreciate all the thoughtful phone calls and visits, and all the dinners that have been brought in thank you very much.
Rocky loves to ride on his grandmas wheels.
Our Stake had a preparedness fair on Sat. It was really fun my grand kids loved it free hot dogs, Rootbeer, nachos and COTTON CANDY ( my fav) They had these blow up slides and jumpy things they were so cool. (thanks to my neighbor) well Butch wasn't sure if he liked the big slide but he went down.
Lindsey on the other hand loved it and kept begging everybody to take her down( even me) She must have went 20 times.
It was fun to get outside and out of the house for a little bit. I was looking forward to going to Gen. Conference this next weekend and getting out but my doctor won't let me go. Something about blood clots oh well I tried maybe next year. (sorry Paula)
Well we are having enough accidents at our house. Tuesday Sterling was riding one of his mules and it in a gallop and went down head first and Sterling went with. He put his hands out to catch him but with all the force( and with a 1200 pound mule rolling on you also ) He came out with 2 broken elbows. So her he is he can't feed himself, scratch his nose head or anything, can't hold the phone to his ear,but he can laugh. We both just look at each other and laugh. 2 cripples taking care of each other.
The injured. I hope that we are all done with these darn breaks.
Grandpa with 2 of his boys. Butch and Rocky. Everyone has been very helpful and we appreciate everything escp. Joleen and James , Buck and Meagan. Calli and Heather, and Gina for all the meals and help, running to the store and just being SLAVES. Thank you and we love you!
We have a Tradition On General Conference Sunday Before the !st Session Sterling cooks waffles on the camping waffle iron. YUMMY! They are so good so here are some pics from that.
Lindsey blessing the food and everyone and everything. She is the best prayer giver.
I broke my leg while going mountain 
Just thought I would let everyone in on whats been going on at our place. We have had Miss Bailey getting some fine tuning and she is almost ready to come home for good. We have been taking her out to the Ranch a little and riding in the arena but yesterday Sterling said lets take her out on the trails. We went into Usery Park which is real close to our house and Sterling bought a couple of new mules and wanted to try them out as well so Buck went with us and we had a good time. Bailey did awesome. I was really amazed at how well she did. We got back and some kids were here for play group and they got to go for a ride also. I'll post those pics later.
Heather finished her freshman year in basketball and is now playing on the softball team.(girls) 
Last friday we went to the zoo. It was lots of fun. The grandkids loved it. Rocky and Hunter were the best and really enjoyed being outside all day. Butch and Lindsey loovveed it. Sterling's sister got us in for 3 dollars and was well worth it.
This picture you can't really tell but there is a monkey on the other side of the glass and Butch and Lindsey loved it they would touch the glass and the monkey would too. Quite funny but maybe you had to be there to enjoy that.
Happy Birthday JoJo! She is 24 today and what a sweet daughter, wonderful mother and a great wife. I just want her to know that we love her and wish her a Happy day! 
Well what have we been doing? I really don't know but I got a new horse and she is really fun. She is a Dunn, Quarter horse she is 17 so she safe and a lot of fun to ride. This is a picture of Calli we went out to ride one day and she was up by her head(the horses) and I was saddling her and as I cinched up the saddle she turned and bit Calli right through her shirt it hurt but it is funny now. If some of you remember Red Bucks old horse he bit Calli too on the stomach so we think she is just to sweet.
