She ended up breaking her Femur and got banged up a bit. She is doing really well and healing. She is going to be getting her hair salon ready, she wants to get back to work. We are so thankful she is doing better. We just love our Jamie Lynn.

April 11 Our Easter at Grandma Ruths

We got together for our Easter celebration even though it was a rainy day. It was nice to see everyone, the kids had fun hunting for eggs in the rain. I took my friends little girl Eve. It was sad that our grandma wasn't able to be there with us or our Aunt Sandy. I'm so thankful for our wonderful family.

March 13 I'm 40

Well I turned the Big 40. It seems strange I don't feel any older and definitely I don't feel any wiser but hey it's here I'm just going to embrace it.

My first born turns 21 Joshua David,I love you Squishy

My sweet Squishy is 21, wow so crazy. Joshua was born on Febuary 9,1988. He was 9lbs 12oz. 21&1/2 inches long. What a sweet and loving little angel. He was so much fun growing up he was always laughing and loving everyone and boy was he a talker. I remember once my mom was watching josh and he talked and talked until my mom fell asleep. She was sitting beside Josh on the couch she only dosed for a minute and when she opened her eyes he was staring up at her and when he saw her eyes open he just continued talking. He was so funny. He has always been such a great example to his brother and sister. He is a hard worker and does great and any job he has. On October 13,2007 Josh married Jamie Endres. Not only did we gain an awesome daughter inlaw but a fantastic hairdresser. Josh is now working in the film industry, and is loving it, it has been a dream of his forever. Well I just wanted to write alittle something about our wonderful son Joshua David Stevens, We love you and are thankful to be your parents.

Oops

Well I have been awful about keeping up with my blog. I'm going to do a quick over view.So here's go.

Breaking and Entering

Saturday morning we (myself,jordan,lora,erin,and mallory) went on a walk. We decided to walk around Ironwoods track. Well it was locked up, so we had the bright idea to just climb over the chain link fence. We did all make it while laughing and I'm sure looking pretty silly. After walking for about an hour it started sprinkling, no big deal it felt good and then it started coming down pretty hard. So we decided to head back to my house. And of course we had to climb back over, so not fun especially with the fence all wet and slippery. We made it over with alot of laughing and a couple of pictures taken. I'll try to get them put on. I love how we have a good time no matter what we are doing. Same time next Saturday. Love you guys

Claire...

I wanted to blog about a new chapter in my life. I was certified by the state to care for special needs individuals. How this all came about. My sisters and I met Karlee (Claire's mom) at a craftshow. Our friend Leann introduced us and we realized we had met her at a craftshow prior to this one. We all really hit it off. As we got to know Karlee we learned about her sweet daughter Claire. Claire has PKS (Pallister- Killian Syndrome) which is a chromosome abnormality, when a tetrasomy of the short arm of chromosome 12 (12p) occurs for no know reason. Clair is 12 years old. She is such a sweet girl to be around. I think we hit it off right away, I've only been around her a few times so far but I'm so loving it. Jordan has gone with me,and she just loves Claire. We play games and watch movies on our next visit we will be doing workbooks together. I'm so blessed to be apart of Claire's life she is a very sweet and special spirit, I know I will learn alot from her and I hope she will learn from me as well. Claire has an 8 year old brother named Jacob he's a real sweet boy. Karlee is an amazing mom she is so patient and loving with her kids, and she runs a business making the cutest bags. I'm looking forward to a great friendship with the whole family. Karlee say's I am a blessing to her and her family what an awsome thing to hear,and I hope she realizes what a blessing this is for me and my family.
