OK! OK! I know it has been 2 and a half months. But I have had a hard time getting things back to normal after Lyle's surgeries. Yes, in case some of you don't know. After his first surgery on the 30th of January. One week to the day after that surgery he started getting some twinges of pain in his back and down his leg. Not supposed to happen. They put him on some Corti-steroids and that helped while he was on them. But they aren't something you can take long term. Ok so to make this very long story shorter... He ended up hurting again badly and ended up talking to the doctor on the phone and having another MRI. Scheduled surgery to get almost to Medford and find out the Insurance company had denied it because he talked to the doctor on the phone and didn't actually see him. So he sees the doctor and then we have to wait another 8 days before he ends up in surgery due to the insurance company and the doctor's schedule. Thank Heaven my parents were so helpful with the kids and let us stay there so much. My mom even had Lyle there for almost a week and took care of him By the end of it Lyle was off of work for about 6 weeks. All of this in a renewal of contract year. Can you say STRESS!!

The good news is, Lyle is doing great! We got renewed and life is good.

In the mean time lots of stuff has happened that I haven't updated on. Jacob turned 12 and received the Aaronic priesthood. I turned 35. (YUCK!) The Twilight movie came out on DVD. Spring break, my sister Michelle came and visited. We got an elliptical machine????? I can't think of all that has been going on. Thus, why you should write it down when it happens.

Anyway, here is a pic of Jacob on his big day.

I'm so glad things have gotten better for you, and especially for Lyle. It's so fun to see your family grow. It happens so fast!
