Broken Collar Bone

On Thanksgiving morning amid rolling out the rolls, Noah broke his collar bone while playing bucking bronco on his cousin's back. We didn't realize it was a complete break until we got x rays the next day. Noah was a real trooper and it actually healed rather quickly. Jared and Marcus brought him this awesome candy card, which may have made the break worth it.

Amatchi's funeral

Amatchi's funeral was beautiful. We traveled down and stayed at Linda's home. It is sad to see this chapter end. Our ties to the basque community won't be the same now and I will miss her. She has been gone for a time now, mentally, and for that reason it is nice to see her resting. I will cherish all the love and kindness she has shown me through out the years. I imagine a beautiful and touching reunion with Aitatchi and her parents in heaven and I bet there is a little bit of moose going on up there and a lot of celebrating. xoxo

Mary's Ramtastic!

Last year Mae Richardson Elementary started a new award, the Ramtastic Student award. This award is given to students who make consistent good choices and are always respectful and do their best each day. Mary was the first to get it in her kindergarten class last year and one of the first in her first grade class this year. Each time we attended there were cousins and many LDS friends who got htis award. I think that says a lot about the influence our children have at the school. We are blessed to be surrounded by families who have kind and loving homes.
