Monday

Yesterday was great..we did church..came home..made homemade rolls for thanksgiving dinner at the hales home that nite..got everyone ready and out the door..

we had a great time at dinner! its fun seeing everyone and catching up with everyone!!

while making the rolls yesterday..becca took off with my wedding ring- YIKES! we figured it was either outside on the grass or in the house somewhere...

this am i got up and went searching for the ring..i told the girls i'd pay them 10 bucks if they found it for me..they had even said 2 prayers yesterday when they started looking for it..so cute! the whole time i just KNEW i'd find it..it was just a matter of time..

today while the girls were looking..i was cleaning up the kitchen because i couldnt function being it a disaster and as i turned the disposal on..the downstairs bathtub filled with sewege...UGH what else could go MAJORILY wrong today!??!?!?!
so i had to go put my plumber hat on and do what i did last time to clear out the sewer thing..good times..i almost threw up twice..but walked away for a second and came back to it..i have respect for those guys now!! i managed to clear it out and make everything work again...

as i was finishing up sarah came yelling "mom i found your ring in my room!!"

what started out as a horrible day..has ended well and its only 1230pm!! NICE!!

jon is doing well..he's getting in his chair more and more..he's on his laptop working now..he's trying to remember to switch positions..sometimes he leans back and sometimes he leans forward..but its hard because that means i have to constantly be here every 30 minutes to help him..so he's trying to find ways that he can change positions without having to keep me here all the time like that..

his sores seem to still be doing okay..and not changing..so that is good..

well it looks like my 2 older girls will be heading up to utah with robert, sandra, scott and kellie to kristi's house..they will leave tomorrow nite and come home saturday..my girls are excited..of course it was all about which video games they could bring in the car to play on grandpa's laptop!! GEESH!! how times have changed huh!!! it will be nice having them gone for a few days to keep the house quiet..its really hard on jon to have screaming girls throughout the house..i started a new thing with them and told them each time they did somethign wrong or screamed in the house..they will have to clean something..i started today..i have to say my stairs look GREAT!!! needless to say..my stairs look nice and i have yet to hear any screaming..next episode will be the bathroom..i thought that was a great idea! i figure i'd mineaswell kill two birds with one stone!

Seriously you are amazing! The sewage disaster...UGH! The wedding ring...I would have flipped! You definetly have a strong head on your shoulders. Very smart to have the girls help clean... we all are hoping that you can have a good thanksgiving...no one can really understand how hard the holidays are going to be for you all, and we will be thinking and praying for you lots. I really cannot stress enough how much your families postiive attitudes have lifted and changed so many peoples lives. Hope your day improves!
