Pinewood/Field Trips Galore/Another Broken Foot

I love England!  And I love that Prince William looks like my brother Jerry!  And I love this picture!

APRIL 26- Little Dude with his derby car!  He and Tom have so much fun making them, Tom even bought a few new tools...

Tom keeping Zoey from trouble, and Sydney with a hurt foot, (more on that later)

Zack is so proud of his car

He got 2nd place!  He's already planning his car for next year.

APRIL 27- I took a personal day to go on a field trip with Summer and all of 1st grade, to the Zoo!  It was ALSO my anniversary!  In the morning when I was getting ready Summer asked me, "Are you going to wear earrings and make-up?"     "Um, Yes."    "Oh good, I don't want people saying you are fat and ugly."      Poor Summer, embarrassed by her mom, it still stings.  But I had a GREAT day with Summer and I think she had fun too.

Her cute class

Paige- Summer's best friend

Wanting to still be the "baby"

Coolest Gorilla EVER

Our super awesome group

It's hard work walking around...

Well at least I had jewelry and make up on, didn't have time for my hair! 

So Sydney fell at school and hurt her foot real bad, this happened on 4/26, we waited a day to see if it would get better but she wouldn't walk on it and it was really swollen.  On 4/27 after the field trip with Summer I took Sydney to the Dr.  They thought it was broken and sent us to get an x-ray.  Sydney just bawled.  She was so sad and so scared to have a broken bone.  We got the x-rays done and while we waited I took her to see an adorable puppy, it cheered her up for a moment.  Then the Dr called to say it was broken and the tears started up again.  I felt so bad for her.  It really was pitiful.  Tom and I had tickets to go to the REAL soccer game and dinner for our 15 YEAR ANNIVERSARY, but we decide we needed to be home with our Sydney and comfort her.  We still need to celebrate our anniversary...get right on that Tom!

MAY 4- I'm happy to report that the day after Sydney got her cute blue cast and pink glitter toes she told me "having a broken bone isn't so bad, I like all the attention!"   I took another personal day to go on a field trip with Sydney for the 5th grade Hope of America concert in the Marriott Center at BYU.  It took me back to the days when I used to clean that place!  I told Syd that I got to walk in the catwalks, she thought that was awesome and told all her friends.  :)

The fun bus ride

Emily and Sydney

Sydney and me

The lovely Marriott Center stairs, scary in crutches! 

 

Sydney and JR, her "friend" I won't embarrass her but she was happy that he hurt his foot too, because he could understand her.  Plus they "like" each other....Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

I always cry at Hope of America!

The ADORABLE puppy that cheered Sydney up...I want her!  She's a Papillon! 

MAY 6- Another field trip!  This time with my buddy Zack (and his friend Sael) to Camp Floyd.  It was a pretty awesome place!  I got to be the tour guide for the old "Inn", very cool!  Wish I had pictures! 

 While all these fun activities are going on...

- It's the last month of school which means VERY busy/crazy time for me

- Tom got strepp, then bronchitis, high blood pressure, and is sick again with pnemonia (I think)

The thing that suffers MOST, among other things, is the house...

I hate mess! 

Counter-O-Chaos

Don't even get me started on laundry...
