Wow, the last couple of weeks have been crazy. Soccer is now over! Hallelujah!! We have our Saturdays back. I am very excited for this weekend. I am going up North, along with my Aunt, cousin and Grandmother, to go see Twilight. We have our tickets and the theater we are going to has assigned seating, so no lines for us! Did I mention I am not taking my kids. :) Saturday night Neal went on an awful call to the high school up the street. A boy had accidentally shot himself in the head with a gun that was loaded with blanks and was being used for a school play. Neal was one of the first on scene. Our prayers are with his family as they are dealing with their loss. Don't even ask me why a real gun loaded with blanks was allowed to be used for a high school play. That's a different post though. He is a fireman, but seems to go to more medical calls than fires or car accidents. I am amazed that he doesn't curl up in the fetal position due to the awful things he has seen. My family will be coming to my house for Thanksgiving. I am very excited about that. It's always a lot of work to host a holiday, but it is well worth it to have so many people I love all in one place. This past weekend we had a bunch of family over to help us with our yard. Thank you, Thank you! We sure have a great family who is willing to spend their Saturday doing yucky yard work and their only payment being orange juice and donuts. :) We burned lots and lots of weeds. Landon sure thought that was great because Neal let him put out the fires. So Landon's desire to be a fireman like his daddy has increased. That's just a bit of what we have been up to.
Some of my favorite music!!

Wow Amy! That is totally crazy about the gun accident. That confirms my belief in hating guns and I don't want anything to do with them. I wonder if his family will sue the school. Was it at Snow Canyon? What play was it for? Sorry so many questions...I just can't believe they would allow something like that to "accidentally" happen.
On another note...I am glad that you get to go up and watch Twilight with everyone and without kids...that will be a nice little vacay. Have fun!!!
Thanks for the update - I love hearing what's going on in your life! How very tragic about that boy...... gosh Amy, that breaks my heart :( But how very EXCITING you are all going to see Twilight together! You will have a blast - I bet your mom is soooooo excited all of you are coming! You'll have to give us a report when you get back!
Love,
Megan
