Fun at the Arena

Yesterday we spent the day up at the indoor arena in Dixon at the first Gymkhana of the year. They have one once a month for 6 months and then win year end prizes. Kyra did really well yesterday in the peewee division. She ended up 1st in the barrels, 1st in the pole bending, 2nd in the flag race, and then they have an optional made up event and Kyra got 1st in that one too. So all in all she had a great day. We made a great decision when we bought her Shanny her horse!

Thankful

Today i am so very thankful for all the nice resources of our time. The great technology and things are wonderful.

On the 19th Shelley (Seans mom) had surgery, to rid her body of the cancerous tumor that had grown back in her kidney area. She had the kidney romoved 5 years ago because it was cancerous. While in surgery for 5 hours the doctor had found that the tumor had started to grow into the muscle that is on her back, and he had to remove alot of that and while doing so had to cut one major nerve. While explaining all of this he is saying that he thinks the nerve that was cut was the one that controls the lifting of your leg. So we were afraid that a lot of physical therapy and things would be a must. But to all of out blessing yesterday Shelley can lift her leg. So whatever nerve the doctor cut was not the important one and Shelley can't tell any difference to her body.

Shelley is doing great and will probably be in the Huntsman Center for 5 or so more day, but we are greatful that she should be able to make a swift and speedy recovery.

Happy Halloween

Well Halloween has came and gone, and we had a blast! I love Halloween except for the sugar highs and then comes the bad teeth, but hay who care's it is all about the fun. We decorated the Halloween Castles, carved pumkins and then got dressed up and went tricker treating. The kids got way more candy than was needed. It should last till next Halloween. This year the kids were great Wade was a Moose and Kyra was and Indian Princess. SO MUCH FUN!!!!!!
