Happy Valentine's day

I want to wish you a Happy Valentine's day a little early. Mom is doing so well. She is up and walks around. It's hard to try to keep her down. We are so glad she is doing well and now we just have to keep her from getting sick.

Happy Valentine's day!

GOOD NEWS

Mom Is coming home tonight!!! But she can't do much for 6 weeks. She can't eat a lot of salt. She can't have more than 1 teasp a day. so that's like 2000mg. We are so glad to have her back.

Mom's sugery

So mom's surgery went well. And we are all glad. They were able to repair the valve with what they the best possible way and it is strong. They usually keep them in ICU for 3 days but they only kept her there for one day. But she has had problems with Arrhythmia at the beginning but they gave her some medication and it cleared up (which means her heart was racing). But last night she had another episode. This one was less dangerous kind. It can make you faint and dizzy and lightheaded and tired. But they are not life threatening usually. But they are keeping her medication.
There are two kinds, atrial tachycardia and ventricle tachycardia. The atrial kind is less dangerous and that's the kind she had last night. But she hasn't had any of them today so that's good. They said that the earlest time that she could come home is Monday but that's if the Arrhythmia is all cleared up and under control and she is doing really well. So she will probably stay for at least a week from the surgery which is Wednesday. Thanks for all your prayers.

TEMPLE NEWS

MERRY CHRISTMAS and Happy 2010

Merry Christmas everyone. Hope you had great holiday. It's been great for me. Family over, great gifts and NO SCHOOL FOR 2 WEEKS!!
We've made many memories this year and tons this season. Like Santa came to our christmas party and the kids were asking questions to see if he was the real Santa. One tugged on his beard, one asked about the reindeer and one with big eyes reported back to his dad excitedly "DAD HE HAS ELVES!!!!!"

We have made memories that weren't that good. Yesterday we took some of the nieces and nephews to Where the Wild things are. Just don't see it. The funny thing is that the kids even reconized that it was weird. Braxton kept begging his mom to take him to get a drink. When he was done his mom asked him "Do you want to go back in now?" and he replied
"No... not yet." so they sat on the bench outside the theater. Later when we walked outside he said with a voice filled with bordom " That was the worstest movie ever." . I thought it was funny how he said it.

Now to 2010! Gosh how time flew by. I can't believe the year is almost over. But I am excited about new years eve because it will be my first stake dance. My Brother dan told me he would break off legs of boy I dance with if they are 15 or older.

This year will be filled with a baby entering our family, Kids going to kindergarten, nephews in spring time sports, soccer, girls in dance, tee ball, and a whole lot more.
But for now..... I will just enjoy it and watch the memories in the making.

Merry Christmas and Happy 2010!!!!!!!
