The Host

For those of you who know me you know that I love the Twilight series by Stephenie Meyer. So good! But she is coming out with a new book on May 6, 2008. It looks pretty good, but also a little weird so it will be interesting to see what it is like. I always love to find new books to read.

50th Birthday

So, this was the big year for Dusty's Mom she turned 50. Dusty figured it out a week before and decided that we just had to do a surprise birthday party. So I say "k, let's do it."

Here are some pics from the party

Karen walking in. She didn't know what to do. It was great.

Trenton, Amy and Aiden. She is getting pretty big.

This is me and Dust after the party. We were exhausted!

Brain Surgery

So, a lot has happened in the last couple of months. The biggest thing is that I had brain surgery on February 16, 2008. I had been really sick for a couple of months and we could figure out what was wrong with me, so my amazing husband decided it would be a good idea to do a MRI. Well, guess what? We found something! It was a brain cyst, and the doctor said that it had probably been there since I was born and it had just started to grow and started to cause me some problems. Everything went really well, we got into the doctor quickly (not 6 months that it normally takes) and the recovery went so well. I was back to work part time within 3 weeks. So, Dusty and I have been very blessed and know that without Heavenly Father's help it would not have gone so smoothly. But here is a pic of my scar when I got home. And the next pick is of a Get Well message from our Bishop's family. They live across the street from us. They have such great kids.


So, that is the most exiciting news by far, but I will try to get a pic posted of my hair growing back in. I just haven't taken one yet.
