Summer Changing Event

Well on Friday May 21st Joyce and I hurried up to Star Valley to get the lawn mowed before the snow that was supposed to come on Saturday. As you can see below the snow did come on Saturday, but we did not get the job done on Friday night.
While Joyce was moving the weed whip cord, she slipped on the little hill in the front yard. Her back leg did not slip and she broke her leg. We were at the hospital by 8:30. She had surgery on Saturday morning. She now has a rod in the middle of her big bone and plates and screws in the little bone between the ankle and the knee.






The plates were put on both sides of her smaller bone and connected with screws. The cast came off Wednesday afternoon and we have been changing the dressing every other day. Tuesday morning we go to the Doctor again and see what is next. He said it will be at least 8 weeks. School is done for Joyce. She missed the last 2 weeks.
The incision in the knee is where they inserted the rod in the middle of the big bone. Notice all the staples. She will never make it through the airport again.

In Star Valley there is always a dream at the end of the rainbow. We will over come.

Gentry Blessing Day

On March 6th we all went to Craig's for Baby Gentry's Baptism. It was great to have Jill bring Grandma up for the event. Below Todd is have a great visit. Isn't she just the cutest Baby you have ever seen?
This is one of the most loved baby's in the world. Of course Mom does, but look how much these two brothers love her. Jace even says he is going to marry her. What fun.
It was a great time to get the family together. We all have sunch great love as a family.
